[. . . ] SANTO Integrated Refrigerator Operating Instructions Dear customer, Before placing your new refrigerator into operation please read these operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance. Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance. [. . . ] 0 To change, lift the shelf compartment with the box upwards and out of the holders in the door and remove the retaining bracket out of the guide under the shelf compartment. 0 Please do the same in reverse to insert the shelf at a different height. The variable box can be hung from a storage shelf in the refrigerator compartment: 0 Pull the storage shelf forward until it can be tipped up or down and removed. 0 Hang the retaining bracket on the taper on the storage shelf and slide the storage shelf back into the guides. 15 Food Storage Fridge Compartment The correct temperature for safe storage of fresh food inside is 0°C to 5°C (32°F to 41°F). The warmest parts of the fridge compartment are at the top storage rack, the vegetable basket and the storage compartments in the door. Food should always be covered or packaged. · The following are suitable for packaging: ­ Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps; ­ Plastic containers with lids ­ Special plastic covers; ­ aluminium foil. Freezer Compartment The freezer compartment is for freezing and storing food. · The temperature in the freezer compartment must be ­18 °C or colder before freezing food or storing food already frozen. · Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. · Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time. 0 All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour. Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. 0 Lay the packaged food on the floor of the freezer compartment. Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, otherwise the frozen food could begin to defrost. · The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods: ­ freezer bags and polyethylene wraps; ­ special cans for frozen goods; ­ extra­thick aluminium foil. · The following are suitable for sealing bags and wrap: plastic clips, rubber bands or tape. 16 · Smooth the air out of the bag before sealing; air makes it easier for the frozen food to dry out. · Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly. · Do not fill containers for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or paste­like goods, because liquids expand during freezing. Preparation of Ice Cubes 0 Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer compartment and leave to freeze. 0 To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it under running water for a few seconds. Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use a spoon handle or similar. 17 Defrosting your Appliance Fridge The fridge defrosts automatically. The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is running, and defrosts when the compressor is off.
