! The presence of water drops on the tank walls is a normal
occurrence during the product’s operation.
! Dry any drops present on the outer walls of the product.
! To empty completely the Water Tank, please disassembly
it as shown on the picture, spill the water, clean with a soft
textile and assembly in the product.
! If the water drops remain on the external door surface

Using the freezer to its full potential
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been
defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24
hours).
• Fresh food for freezing should not be placed in contact with the
one already frozen; it should be placed in the lower FREEZER
and STORAGE compartment that provides the best freezing
rate.
• To freeze fresh food in the best and safest way possible,
activate the SUPER function 24 hours before placing the food
in the freezer. After placing the food inside, activate the SUPER
function again; it will be deactivated automatically after 24
hours;
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are corked
or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment
(for example: 2Kg/24h ).
! To avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer
compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation
holes with food or containers.
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer
door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer,
ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 12-18 hours.
! To get more space inside your freezer, you can take out any
drawers (and flaps, if appropriate), from their slots, by putting
your food directly on the provided shelves.
