Vegetable Drawer

The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vege-
tables.
There is a separator inside the drawer that can be
placed in different positions to allow for the sub-
division best suited to personal needs.
There is a grille (if foreseen) on the bottom of the
drawer to separate the fruit and vegetables from
any humidity that may form on the bottom sur-
face.
All parts inside the drawer can be removed for
cleaning purposes

Humidity control

The glass shelf incorporates a device with slits
(adjustable by means of a sliding lever), which
makes it possible to regulate the temperature in
the vegetable drawer(s).
When the ventilation slots are closed:
the natural moisture content of the food in the
fruit and vegetable compartments is preserved for
longer.
When the ventilation slots are opened:
more air circulation results in a lower air moisture
content in the fruit and vegetable compartments.

Helpful hints and tips

Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low tem-
perature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing
frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward
warmer settings to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption.

Hints for fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it
