The Total No Frost system effectively prevents ice formation, avoiding the hassle of manual defrosting both in freezer and fridge cavity. Its ventilation system provides perfect circulation of cold air in both cavities thus avoiding ice builds up.

Ice cubes
  • Fill 2/3 of the ice tray with water and put it back in the freezer compartment.
  • Do not use sharp or pointed objects to remove the ice under any circumstances.
  • The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 12 and 24 hours is written on the rating plate.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The drawers, baskets and shelves should be kept in their current position unless otherwise specified in this quick guide. The light system inside the refrigerator compartment uses LED lights, allowing for better lighting than with traditional light bulbs, as well as for very low energy consumption.

DISPOSAL
Doors and lids of the refrigeration appliance should be removed before disposal in the landfill, to avoid children or animals getting trapped inside.

REMOVING THE DRAWERS

Pull the drawers outwards as far as they will go, lift them up and remove them. To get more volume, the freezer compartment can be used without the drawers.
