Leave the doors ajar, so that air can circulate inside the compartments. [. . . ] It is perfectly normal for frost to form. 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. In all other cases, the Meat & Fish compartment can be removed to obtain more space inside the refrigerator. Remove the compartment drawer (Figure 1). Remove the drawer cover by releasing the bottom side clips (Figure 2). To reinstate the Meat & Fish compartment, make sure to refit the drawer cover before inserting the drawer and reactivating operation. Press the "Meat & Fish compartment function" button on the control panel for 3 seconds, until the yellow indicator goes off. To optimise energy consumption, it is advisable to deactivate the Meat & Fish compartment and remove its components (except the shelf above the crisper drawers). Fig. 2 13 "ZERO DEGREES" BOX (depending on the model) The "Zero Degrees" box is specifically designed to maintain a low temperature and a suitable humidity level, in order to keep foods fresher for longer (e. g. meat, fish, fruit and winter vegetables). Activating and deactivating the box The temperature inside the box, when active, is approximately 0°. To activate the compartment, press the button shown in the figure for more than 1 second, until the symbol lights up The symbol lit indicates that the compartment is functioning.
