you can hear it humming.

Energy saving tips
• Do not install the appliance near cook-
ers, radiators or other sources of
warmth.
• Do not open the door too often or
leave the door open any longer than
necessary.
• Do not set temperature colder than
necessary.
• Make sure the side plates and back
plate of the appliance are with some
distance from the wall, follow the in-
structions relevant to installation.
• If sketch map shows the right combina-
tion of the drawers, crisper and
shelves, do not adjust the combination,
it would result in more energy- con-
suming.
Hints for fresh food refrigera-
tion
To obtain the best performances:
• Do not store warm foods or evaporat-
ing liquids in the appliance.
• Do cover or wrap the food, particularly
if it has a strong flavor or odor.
• Position food so that air can circulate
freely around.
Hints for refrigeration
• Meat (all types): wrap in polythene
bags and place on the glass shelf above
the vegetable drawer. For safety, store
in this way only one or two days at the
most.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc…: these
should be covered and may be placed
on any shelf.
• Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in aluminum foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.

including interior accessories, should be
cleaned regularly.
The fridge should be cleaned and main-
tained at least every two months.
