•!•
Install the appliance in a dry and well-ventilated place.
•!•
Install the appliance in a suitable position with an adequate distance from
sources of heat and cold.
•!•
Protect the appliance from direct sunlight.
•!•
Do not line the drawers with aluminium foil, waxed paper or paper layers;
otherwise optimum circulation of the cold air is impeded so the appliance cannot
work at best performance.
•!•
Cooked food can be stored in the appliance. Let it cool down to room
temperature before you put it into
your
appliance.
•!•
Store
your
food in colourless, airtight and tasteless materials.
•!•
Some food like meat, fish etc. may become dry and release strong odours. You can
avoid these by wrapping them into aluminium foil or plastic wrap or putting
them into an airtight bag or container.
•!•
Allow ample storage place for
your
food. Do not overfill
your
appliance.
•!•
Wrap your food in plastic wrap or suitable paper and place each kind of food
in a particular location in
your
appliance. This will prevent any contamination,
a loss of water and a mingling of odours.
•!•
Let warm or hot food cool down to room temperature before
you
put it into
your
appliance. Otherwise the energy consumption will increase and encrusted
ice will be generated.
•!•
If you buy frozen food, the packaging must not be damaged and the product
must be properly stored (sales container -18 °C or lower).
•!•
Put the frozen food you want to defrost into the cooling-compartment of your
