fooD storage compartment
• Cool the refrigerator before placing any food inside. Never
put hot food or drinks into the refrigerator - cool them first.
• The food storage compartment is completely closed and
unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the required
low temperature for food storage. Consequently, foods hav-
ing a strong odor or those that absorb odors easily should be
covered.
• Vegetables, salads etc. should be covered to retain their
crispness.
• The coldest positions in the refrigerator are under the cool-
ing fins and at the bottom of the refrigerator. The warmer ar-
eas are on the upper door shelves. This should be considered
when placing different types of food in the refrigerator.
• arrange all food in the unit to allow for free air circulation.
Do not overpack because a stuffed refrigerator must work
harder and will have higher cabinet temperatures.
• Do not leave the unit's door open any longer than necessary.
This will reduce frost formation and increase the efficiency
of the refrigerator.

frozen fooD storage compartment
This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing
of food.
• To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered dishes,
containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminum foil.
• Meat or fish, whether raw or prepared, can be stored in the
frozen food storage compartment provided they are pre-
cooled first in the refrigerator. They can be stored about
three times longer in the frozen food compartment as com-
pared to the fresh food compartment.
• Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in
the coldest part of the compartment, which is at the bottom
of the aluminum liner.
• Frozen vegetables, may be stored in any part of the compart-
ment.
• To prevent frost buildup, which can reduce the efficiency,
wipe excess moisture off items being placed in the compart-
ment.
ice cubes
Ice cubes can be made in the freezer compartment. For faster
ice making, the trays should be placed in direct contact with the
bottom of the freezer compartment.

Ice will be made more rapidly if f the thermostat is set at its
highest position, but be sure to move the thermostat back
to normal setting when the ice is formed; the refrigerator might
otherwise become too cold.
