GETTING TO KNOW YOUR REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator you've chosen allows you to preserve fresh food and if it has a freezer
compartment (depending on the model) you can also keep frozen food and freeze fresh food
(see section on freezing).
Temperature regulation
The temperature can be regulated in steps by means of the thermostat.
Position 0 means equipment operation suspended (off internal light not working)
Position 1 means equipment operation at minimum.
Position 7 means equipment operation at maximum.
Remember that thermostat settings are affected by variations in the ratio to the ambient
temperature, the quantity of food in the fridge, the position the fridge is in and how often
you open the fridge door. Experience will tell you which setting is right for your needs. To
move or remove the shelves, raise the rear part, pull forward untill the front part leaves the
guides, pull upwards and remove completely. Choose a new position and put the shelf back
in by reversing the procedure.
PRESERVING FOOD
•
The temperature varies from place to place inside the fridge. The coldest parts are
immediately over the fruit and vegetable baskets, near the rear wall.
•
In the freezer compartment (-18° C) you can keep frozen food for months.
•
We advise a thermostat setting on positions 4 - 5. The storage deadline for frozen foods
is usually written on the packet.
•
A product that starts to defrost must under no circumstances be re-frozen and must be
consumed as soon as possible.
•
To preserve flavours, consistency and freshness we suggest wrapping the food in
aluminum or cling foil and placing it in containers with a lid.
IMPORTANT
Do not put glass containers with liquid in them in the freezer or warm food in the fridge
compartment. Foods which easily absorb smells and flavours and liquids and products which
are very alcoholic must be kept hermetically sealed in an upright position.
Making ice cubes
Three-quarters fill the ice cube trays with water and place in the freezer. If, when freezing,
the trays stick to the surface of the freezer, don't use a sharp or pointed object to remove
them, which might damage the equipment. Use the handle of a spoon.
WARNING
Don't eat ice cubes or ice-lollies straight from the freezer, as this may cause ice burns.
