Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of vari-
ous sizes, the door shelves can be placed at
different heights.
To make these adjustments proceed as fol-
lows:
gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the
arrows until it comes free, then reposition as
required.
Helpful hints and tips
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high, the
Temperature Regulator is on the higher
setting and the appliance is fully loaded,
the compressor may run continuously,
causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If
this happens, turn the Temperature Reg-
ulator toward lower settings to allow auto-
matic defrosting and so a saving in elec-
tricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liq-
uids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it
has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely
around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and
place on the glass shelf above the vegetable
drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two
days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these
should be covered and may be placed on any
shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thor-
oughly cleaned and placed in the special
drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed
in special airtight containers or wrapped in
aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude
as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and
should be stored in the bottle rack on the
door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
