KNOW YOUR FROST-FREE APPLIANCE
The main advantage of your refrigerator/freezer with fan circu-
lation is the total absence of frost and ice forming on the com-
partments walls, thanks to the process described below. The
cold air is produced by an evaporator and is circulated by
means of a fan into the two compartments. The air, having been
circulated, is again passed to the evaporator. This keeps the
humidity low. In this way, there will be no frost formation on the
compartment walls, as in a traditional appliance.
The "ventilated cold" system ensures a better storage of foods
maintaining their original condition for a longer period of
time.
