Fridge use
•Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
•Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should
be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put
into the refrigerator.
•Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the
refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible
condensation problems which will be dicult to remove.
•Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped
away before putting into the fridge.
•Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This
will help prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh
and avoid unpleasant odours.
• Sort foods prior to storing. Any foods to be used soon
should be stored at the front of the shelf to prevent
deterioration caused by the door being open for
prolonged periods.
•Do not overfill the fridge. There should be sucient
space between the foods to allow the cool air to
circulate.
•Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help
to keep the temperature low and save energy.
•Never store raw meats above cooked meats or other
produce. This will help to prevent juices from raw meat
contaminating other foodstus.
7
Freezer use
•The freezer compartments are designed to store only
frozen food.
•Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to
cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage
of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should
not be stored for more than three months after the
purchase date.
•Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2kg). This
reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the
food after thawing.
•Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the
wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
• Label the food before freezing with information including
type of food and dates of storage and expiry.
•Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen. Only
defrost as much food as is required to prevent wastage.
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the
freezer compartments as they could explode.
•The maximum amount of fresh food that can be frozen
within a 24 hour period is 8 kg.
•Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum
amount.
•To freeze fresh food more quickly, switch on the super
freeze function a few hours prior to placing the food in
the freezer.
8
• Do not use the super freeze function more than once
in 72 hours. Use over the recommended time will place
unnecessary strain on the refrigeration system.
• Where possible, do not overload your fridge and freezer
compartments. This allows for air circulation around the
contents and keeping airways etc. as unobstructed as
possible will ensure optimum performance.

Crisper drawer humidity adjustment
The crisper drawer within this appliance features a humidity level
adjustment slider. Vegetables and similar produce that are subject to
wilting (e.g. arugula, spinach leaves, herbs such as basil etc.), should
be kept in the crisper drawer and
the adjustment slider kept closed
(fully to the left). By keeping the
adjustment slider closed, water
vapour is held in the drawer and
subsequently greens are kept
crisper and fresher for longer.
By contrast, fruits that are
susceptible to rotting should be
stored in the crisper drawer with the humidity adjustment slider fully
open (to the right). This will allow gases, emitted by certain produce
and that accelerate the rotting process, to exit the crisper drawer.
Fig.2 shows the adjustment slider (S) and the humidity window (W).
