[. . . ] FIRST USE Connect the appliance to the electric power supply. The ideal temperatures for preserving food have already been set at the factory. [. . . ] This will avoid the formation of odours or smells inside the appliance and ensure better preservation of the foods. Do not place hot food inside the appliance. This will save on energy consumption and will extend the duration of the appliance. Note: Ambient temperature, frequency of door opening and position of the appliance can affect the temperature inside the two compartments. Set the temperatures based on these factors. REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT The refrigerator compartment is used for the storage of fresh food and beverages. Refrigerator compartment defrosting is fully automatic. Droplets of water on the rear wall inside the refrigerator compartment indicate that automatic defrost is in progress. The defrost water is automatically channelled through a drain hole and collected in a container, where it evaporates. Warning: The refrigerator/freezer accessories must not be placed in a dishwasher. Fan and anti-bacterial and anti-odour filter (depending on model) The fan ensures a more even distribution of the temperature inside the refrigerator compartment, resulting in a better preservation of food and reduction of excess humidity. The fan will come on automatically whenever necessary. 7 FREEZER COMPARTMENT The freezer compartment is used to preserve frozen foods and to freeze fresh food. Defrosting of the freezer compartment is fully automatic. The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in a 24 hour period (using the "Fast Freeze" function - se Quick Guide) is given on the rating plate. [. . . ] If not, switch it off again and repeat the operation after an hour. If your appliance still does not work properly after carrying out the checks listed in the troubleshooting guide and switching the appliance on again, contact the After-sales service, clearly explaining the problem and specifying: • the type of fault; • the model; • the type and serial number of the appliance (given on the rating plate); • the Service number (the number after the word SERVICE on the rating plate inside the appliance).
