8.1 Lighting
To provide optimum interior lighting, LED strips
illuminate the refrigerator compartment from
the top and sets of LED lights directly illuminate
different areas of the refrigerator compartment, of
the refrigerator drawers and the freezer drawer.
In case of malfunction and/or wearing out of the
lighting system, repairs should be carried out by a
qualified Service technician.
9.1 General instructions
Your refrigerator is designed to ensure constant
accurate temperatures and appropriate humidity
levels in all compartments.
In addition, the double refrigeration ensures that
frozen foods and ice do not absorb the odour of
fresh foods and that the humidity in the refrigerator
does not freeze, resulting in frost build-up.
Nevertheless, to properly preserve all of your foods,
it is not enough to have an excellent refrigerator. It
is also necessary to know the rules of correct cold
food storage.
Do bear in mind that all foods will inevitably change
their characteristics with the passage of time. This
change begins long before the food is consumed,
since foods contain micro-organisms which multiply
and can cause deterioration. This process occurs
more rapidly in the case of improper handling and
of incorrect storage temperatures and humidity
levels.
We therefore recommended that you follow the
instructions provided below which will allow you
to use your refrigerator/freezer in the safest and
most effective manner, to keep your foods in the
best possible way for as long as possible.
Bear in mind that the Fresco drawer is the area
for preserving the most delicate fresh foods, since
it ensures constant average temperature near
freezing.
Periodically check that all foods are in a proper state
of preservation. It is usually quite clear when a food
item has deteriorated, due to mould, an unsavoury
odour and an unpleasant aspect. Nevertheless,
there are cases in which these conditions are not
so evident. If you believe that a food item has been
kept for an excessive period of time and may have
deteriorated, do not consume this item or even taste
it, even if it still seems to be well preserved, since
the bacteria that cause deterioration in food can
also cause poisoning and illness. When in doubt,
throw the food away.
