Avoid storing unwrapped food
in direct contact with internal
surfaces of the refrigerator or
freezer compartments.
Appliances could have special
compartments (Fresh Food
Compartment, Zero Degree
Box,...).
Unless differently specified in the
specific booklet of product, they
can be removed, maintaining
equivalent performances.
C-Pentane is used as blowing
agent in the insulation foam
and it is a flammable gas.
The most appropriate
compartments of the appliance
where specific types of food are
to be stored, taking into account
different temperature distribution
in different compartments in the
appliance, are as follows:
- Refrigerator compartment:
1) Upper area of the refrigerator
compartment & door -
temperature zone: Store tropical
fruit, cans, drinks, eggs, sauces,
pickles, butter, jam
2) Middle area of the refrigerator
compartment - cool zone: Store
cheese, milk, dairy food, deli food,
yoghurt
3) Lower area of the refrigerator
compartment - coldest zone:

pudding and cream cheese
4) Fruit & vegetable drawer at the
bottom of the refrigerator
compartment: Store vegetables
and fruits (excluding tropical
fruits)
5) Chiller compartment: Only
store meat and fish in the coldest
drawer
- Freezer compartment:
4 star zone (****) compartment is
suitable for freezing foodstuffs
from ambient temperature and
for storing frozen food as the
temperature is evenly distributed
throughout the entire
compartment.
Purchased frozen food has the
storage expiration date stated on
the packaging. This date takes
into account the type of food
being stored and therefore this
date should be respected. Fresh
food should be stored for the
following time periods: 1-3
months for cheese, shellfish, ice
cream, ham/sausage, milk, fresh
liquids; 4 months for steak or
chops (beef, lamb, pork); 6 months
for butter or margarine, poultry
(chicken, turkey); 8-12 months for
fruits (except citrus), roast meat
(beef, pork, lamb), vegetables.
Expiration dates on the packaging
of foods in the 2-star zone must
be respected.
To avoid food contamination,
please observe the following:
– Opening the door for long
periods can cause a significant
increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
