REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator compartment is used for storing fresh food for a few days.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment. Leave some space around the
food to allow the air to circulate.
• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.
• Never introduce volatile, inflammable or explosive fluids such as alcohol, acetone or petrol because of the risk of
explosion.
• Always store food in closed containers or wrapped. To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids
in unsealed containers in the refrigerator.
• Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is recommended to be placed on the glass shelf just above the vegetable drawer,
where the air is cooler.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into the vegetable drawer without the packaging.
• To avoid the cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often and not leave the door open for a long time.
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time on the
packaging and for making ice cubes.
• Do not freeze too large an amount of food at one time; the faster the food is frozen, the longer is preserves its qualities.
• Wrap and seal fresh food properly. The packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak.
• Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after purchase. Make sure that it doesn’t defrost
during transport.
• The length of time you can keep food depends very much on the quality of the food.
• Always mark the date and the content on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time.
• Do not store glass bottles or containers with liquids in the freezer which will freeze. The freezing may cause the bottles to
break. Highly carbonated drinks can even explode. Never keep lemonade, fruit juice, beer, wine, champagne, etc. in the
freezer.
• Once the food is thawed, it must not be refrozen: you must cook it as quickly as possible in order to consume or to freeze
again.
• In case of a power failure or malfunction, the freezer compartment will maintain a sufficiently low temperature for food
storage. However, avoid opening the door to slow down the temperature rise within the appliance.

MAXI FRESH
By means of the Maxi Fresh technology, ethylene and other unpleasant odours
in the vegetable drawer are absorbed. This means that food can be stored for a
longer period of time. Ethylene is a biological product that is naturally released
from fresh food such as vegetables and fruit.
• The Maxi Fresh must be cleaned once per year.
• Take the Maxi Fresh holder from the vegetable drawer and remove the back of
the holder in the direction of the arrow as shown here.
• Clean the filter by placing it in an oven for 2 hours at 65°C.
• The filter may not be cleaned with water or any detergent.
When the filter needs replacing or when you have lost the filter, you can buy a new one from the Inventum webshop: https://

ACCESSORIES
