3.5.9 Maxi-fresh preserver (If 

available)

Maxi Fresh Preserver 

technology helps to remove 

ethylene gas (a bioproduct 

released naturally from 

fresh foods) and unpleasant 

odors from the crisper. In 

this way, food stays fresh 

for a longer time.

• Maxi Fresh Preserver must be cleaned

once in a year.

The filter should be waited for 2

hours at 65°C in a oven.

• To clean the filter, please remove the

back cover of the filter box by pulling

it in the direction of the arrow.

• The filter should not be washed with

water or any detergent.

4 Food storage

4.1 Refrigerator Compartment

For normal operating conditions, set the 

temperature of the refrigerator compart-

ment to +4 or +6 °C.

• To reduce humidity and avoid the

consequent formation of frost, always

store liquids in sealed containers in

the refrigerator. Frost tends to con-

centrate in the coldest parts of the

evaporating liquid and, in time, your

appliance will require more frequent

defrosting.

• Never place warm food in the

refrigerator. Warm food should be

allowed to cool at room temperature

and should be arranged to ensure

adequate air circulation in the refrig-

erator compartment.

• Make sure no items are in direct

contact with the rear wall of the

appliance as frost will develop and

packaging will stick to it. Do not

open the refrigerator door frequently.

• We recommend that meat and clean

fish are loosely wrapped and stored

on the glass shelf just above the vege-

table bin where the air is cooler, as

this provides the best storage condi-

tions.

• Store loose fruit and vegetable items

in the crisper containers.
