[. . . ] We suggest setting the temperature to -18°C, which is optimal for energy consumption and frozen food storage. Difference until 5°C inside the compartment are quite normal. When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours. The freezer baskets ensure that it is quick and easy to find the food package you want. If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers except for the bottom basket which needs to be in place to provide good air circulation. On all shelves except for the top shelf it is possible to place food that protrude until load limit stated on the side of the middle section In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has been off for longer that the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then refrozen (after cooling). Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation. Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer. Your appliance is equipped with a carbon filter behind the air lever flap. The filter purifies the air from unwanted odours in the fridge compartment preserving food quality. Make sure that the air lever flap is closed to obtain proper function. The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired. Some shelves must be lifted up by the rear edge to enable them to be removed. Do not move the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer to ensure correct air circulation. Some models have a separator inside the drawer that can be placed in different positions to allow for the subdivision best suited to personal needs. The temperature in the Natura fresh zone is constantly just above 0°C. The lower drawer with a higher humidity of the air, is suited for keeping berries, fruits and vegetables. Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided. Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible. Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door. Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator. When the temperature regulator is set to +5°C this represents the mean temperature in the fridge. [. . . ] The technical information are situated in the rating plate on the internal left side of the appliance and in the energy label.

Install this appliance at a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the rating plate of the appliance: To ensure best performance, if the appliance is positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the minimum distance between the top of the cabinet and the wall unit must be at least 40 mm . Ideally, however, the appliance should not be positioned below overhanging wall units. [. . . ]
