LED lights last longer than normal bulbs, they illuminate better and are more environmentally friendly 10 WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS NOT IN USE Unplug the appliance from the mains, then empty, defrost (if necessary) and clean it. Leave the doors ajar, so that air can circulate inside the compartments. This will prevent the formation of mould and bad odours. DURING BLACKOUTS Keep the doors closed to allow the stored food to stay cold as long as possible. If the blackout persists, the blackout alarm may sound (depending on the model). REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT The refrigerator compartment is designed for the storage of fresh food and beverages. Refrigerator compartment defrosting is completely automatic. Droplets of water on the rear wall of the compartment indicate that the periodic automatic defrost cycle is in progress. The defrost water is automatically routed to a drain outlet and into a container from which it evaporates. Depending on the model, the appliance may have a special box ("Meat & Fish" or "Zero Degrees") which is ideal for the storage of fresh meat and fish. Important: refrigerator accessories must not be washed in a dishwasher. The amount of frost which forms and the rate at which it builds up depends on room temperature and humidity, and on how often the door is opened. To defrost, unplug the appliance and remove all foodstuffs. Leave the door ajar to allow the frost to melt. For products with a freezer compartment below the refrigerator compartment, the defrost water drain pipe can be removed (see figure) and a recipient placed underneath. After defrosting, replace the drain pipe, making sure that no water is left in it. Clean inside the freezer compartment and dry carefully. Switch the appliance back on and place the food back inside. 12 MEAT & FISH BOX (depending on model) The Meat & Fish box was designed specially to keep foods fresher for longer, without altering nutritional values or original freshness. Do not store fruit or vegetables in this box, as the temperature may drop below 0°C, causing water contained in the food to freeze. Temperature Adjustment The temperature inside the Meat & Fish box is indicated by the position of the arm on the door of the box, and depends on the general temperature of the refrigerator compartment. We recommend setting the temperature of the refrigerator compartment between +2° and +6°. To work out if the temperature inside the Meat & Fish box is correct, refer to the pictures below: When the arm points to the left, you need to raise the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. When the arm is in the middle, the temperature is ok. When the arm points to the right, you need to lower the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. Important: when the function is activated and foods with a high water content are present, condensation may form on the shelves. In this case, disable the function temporarily. Removing the Meat & Fish compartment: To ensure correct operation of the product, adequate preservation of food and to optimise energy consumption, it is advisable not to remove the Meat & Fish compartment if the symbol (see Quick Guide) is not present on the control panel.
