[. . . ] 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. [. . . ] Refreezing partially thawed food is not recommended. It is important to wrap food so that no water, moisture, or vapour may penetrate. To save energy and prolong the life of the appliance, make sure hot foods are never placed inside it. Note: the ambient temperature, door opening frequency and position of the appliance can affect the temperatures inside the two compartments. Set the temperature based on these factors. Making ice cubes Fill the ice cube tray (where provided) 2/3 full and place it in the freezer compartment. Never use sharp or pointed objects to remove the ice. Removing drawers (depending on model) Pull the drawers all the way out, lift them up a little and remove. To create more space, the freezer compartment can also be used as follows: A) If the freezer compartment base resembles figure A, remove the upper drawers and/or lids. The lower drawer should be left in position. Make sure that, once the food has been placed on the racks/shelves, the door closes properly. 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. Press the button again for more than 1 second to deactivate the compartment The following factors are vital for the "Zero Degrees" box to work properly: - the refrigerator compartment must be switched on - the temperature of the refrigerator compartment must be between +2°C and +6°C - the box must be inserted to enable activation - no special functions must have been selected (Standby, Cooling-Off, Vacation – where applicable). If one of these special functions has been selected, the "Zero Degrees" box must be deactivated manually, and any fresh food inside it removed. If manual deactivation does not take place, the box will be deactivated automatically after 8 hours. Note: - if the symbol does not light up when the box is activated, check that the box is properly inserted; if the problem persists, contact your nearest authorized After-sales Service - if the box is active and the drawer open, the symbol on the control panel may be deactivated automatically. If the drawer is inserted, the symbol will become active again - irrespective of the state of the box, a slight noise may be heard: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. - when the box is not active, the temperature inside it depends on the general temperature inside the refrigerator compartment. In this case, we recommend it is used to store fruit and vegetables which are not sensitive to cold temperatures (fruits of the forest, apples, apricots, carrots, spinach, lettuce, etc. ). Important: If the function is activated and food with high water content is present, condensate may form on the shelves. [. . . ] Never use abrasive detergents.
