- (Or)
Min. = Lowest cooling setting
- (Warmest setting)
Max. = Highest cooling setting
- (Coldest setting)
The average temperature inside the fridge should be around +5°C.
Please choose the setting according to the desired temperature. Please note that there will be different temperatures in the cooling area. The coldest region is immediately above the vegetable compartment.
The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened, and the amount of food kept inside.
Frequently opening the door causes the interior temperature to rise. For this reason, it is recommended to close the door again as soon as possible after use.

Using interior compartments

Movable shelves: The distance between the shelves can be adjusted when necessary.
Vegetable drawer: Vegetables and fruits can be stored in this compartment for long periods without decaying.

Store concentrated alcohol only standing upright and tightly closed.

Attention

Do not store explosive substances or containers with flammable propellant gases (canned cream, spray cans, etc.) in the device. There is a danger of an explosion.

Defrost

The fridge compartment defrosts automatically.
The thawing water flows through the drain channel into a collection container at the rear of the device.
During defrosting, water droplets form at the back of the fridge due to the evaporator.
