[. . . ] The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. The system maintains an optimal humidity level in the compartment, preserving the original quality of the food, preventing the food from sticking together and making defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back panel.

By decreasing the fridge temperature you decrease the CHILLER compartment temperature too. * Varies by number and/or position, available only on certain I CARE* Controls the activation and deactivation of the I CARE function (optimal operating temperature for minimal energy consumption).

Open the humidity regulator (position B) if you want to store food in a less humid environment like fruit, or close it (position A) to store food in a more humid environment like vegetable. Other fruits and vegetables are highly sensitive to the presence of ethylene, but may or may not produce the ethylene themselves. Coolsaver maintains longer shelf life with better food quality and fresher perishables by removing the ethylene gas that causes premature ripening and decay. Coolsaver also avoids cross transfer of odors and provides an ideal environment in your refrigerator. Coolsaver is a 100% natural inorganic mineral and keeps its full efficiency for several years. Considering the dust and humidity around the Coolsaver during the normal use of the refrigerator, it is recommended to recondition the Coolsaver periodically at each 6 months to satisfy the full effectivity. Reconditioning is a process of cleaning the Coolsaver bag with a vacuum cleaner and then putting it under sunlight for around 6 hours or inside an oven at 80 °C for 1 hour. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 12-18 hours. The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for example: 2Kg/24h: ).
