9.2 How to best preserve food quality
When buying groceries
Always take the following precautions:

plastic bags so that they do not drip on other foods.

your groceries in a warm car after shopping. Keep a
freezer bag in your car and use it in case of very high
temperatures or long trips.

on foods to be sure that they are fresh.
> Be very careful when buying fresh foods, and only
buy a quantity that can be consumed during your
planned preservation period.

circulation vents inside the compartment.

10.1 Care and Cleaning
To clean the parts made of steel use a microfiber
cloth and the sponge provided in the kit with the
appliance. Always use the cloth and sponge in the
direction of the steel’s satin finish.
Every now and then, to polish the steel, wipe with a
slightly damp microfiber cloth.
Do not use the sponge on aluminium parts, such as
the handles and the profiles of the glass shelves.
You should use special care to keep the ventila-
tion openings in the appliance or in the cabinet that
houses it free of obstructions.
Carefully follow the detailed directions
that can be found in the provided kit and
never use abrasive or metallic products
which could scratch and damage the satin
finishing on the appliance permanently.
Before performing any sort of cleaning,
disconnect the appliance from the electrical
power supply.
Make sure you do not damage the refrigerant
circuit in any way.
Warning
Do not use chlorine-based detergents or
cleaning agents.
