6. HINTS AND TIPS
6.1 Hints for energy saving
• Most efficient use of energy is
ensured in the configuration with the
drawers in the bottom part of the
appliance and shelves evenly
distributed. Position of the door bins
does not affect energy consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than necessary.
• Do not set too high temperature to
save energy unless it is required by
the characteristics of the food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the temperature control is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice
formation on the evaporator. In this
case, set the temperature control
toward higher temperature to allow
automatic defrosting and to save
energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not
cover the ventilation grilles or holes.
6.2 Hints for fresh food
refrigeration
• The medium temperature setting
ensures good preservation of fresh
food.
Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf
life of food.
• Cover the food with packaging to
preserve its freshness and aroma.
• Always use closed containers for
liquids and for food, to avoid flavours
or odours in the compartment.
• To avoid the cross-contamination
between cooked and raw food, cover
the cooked food and separate it from
the raw one.
• It is recommended to defrost the food
inside the fridge.
• Do not insert hot food inside the
appliance. Make sure it has cooled
down at room temperature before
inserting it.
• To prevent food waste the new stock
of food should always be placed
behind the old one.
6.3 Hints for food refrigeration
• Fresh food compartment is the one
marked (on the rating plate) with .
• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable
packaging and place it on the glass
shelf above the vegetable drawer.
Store meat for at most 1-2 days.
• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly
(eliminate the soil) and place in a
special drawer (vegetable drawer).
• It is advisable not to keep the exotic
fruits like bananas, mangos, papayas
etc. in the refrigerator.
• Vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes,
onions, and garlic should not be kept
in the refrigerator.
• Butter and cheese: place in an airtight
container or wrap in an aluminium foil
or a polythene bag to exclude as
much air as possible.
• Bottles: close them with a cap and
place them on the door bottle shelf, or
(if available) on the bottle rack.
• Always refer to the expiry date of the
products to know how long to keep
them.
