They contain important information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance. Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. [. . . ] Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not to use oxidiser or abrasive products. Remove all food past its expiry date from the refrigerator. For the correct preservation of food, all easily perishable items (soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc. ) should be stored in the coldest zone of the fridge compartment, i. Just above the salad crisper where the temperature indicator is situated. 19 GB function will be deactivated automatically (the LED switches off); the food may now be moved into the two lower compartments (so that the Cool Care Zone can be used if necessary) or even left in the Cool Care Zone compartment, which operates as a normal storage compartment when the function has not been activated. € Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24 hours). € Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been defrosted. € Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could break. € The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4). € In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the freezer compartment, you may remove the bins (except the lowest bin and the special COOL CARE ZONE bin, which has an adjustable temperature) and place the food directly onto the evaporator plates. If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours. ICE CARE tray The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with water is also provided). Check that the tray is ompletely empty and fill it with water through the opening provided. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes from dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray). Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each mould fills with water (see diagram). Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray back, placing the top part in the corresponding housing and allowing it to drop in again. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8 hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the outside so that the ice cubes come loose and take them out through the opening. MAX WATER LEVEL Cool Care Zone The Cool Care Zone is a special compartment in the freezer which allows the user to choose between 4 different operating modes that may be set according to specific requirements and the type of food stored inside. [. . . ] € The temperature inside the freezer is too high. The freezer will maintain a temperature of around 0°C so that the food will not refreeze, allowing you to eat it within 24 hours or to refreeze it after it has been cooked. To switch off the buzzer, press the RESET ALARM button. Press again to delete the message on the display, switch off the ALARM LED and restore normal operation. [. . . ]
