Functions
Fan

button (as shown in figure below at step 2) and at the same time the button

drops of water are present on the glass shelves, it is essential to have the
fan on to ensure the proper preservation of the food. Deactivation of the fan
allows energy consumption to be optimised.

panel and lights remain off). Press the button again briefly to reactivate the
