the temperature and therefore the electrical
consumption will increase.
Reducing the frequency of door opening
can reduce energy consumption.
Fridge temperature can be controlled
manually with the temperature control
knob. However, consider that the number
displayed on the knob does not directly
represent the temperature, since it depends
on external factors such as the number of
times the refrigerator door is opened.
Note: Before inserting the plug into an
electrical outlet, make sure that the
voltage corresponds to that indicated on
the product label, and that the plug has a
ground connection.

Fresh zone
A cold box or 'Fresh Zone' box is allocated
at the top of the fridge, with temperature
range from 0 to -3ª. Temperature range in
remaining inner cavity is from 2º to 8º.
Fresh zone box is not a freezer,
it does not have any freezing
stars. Food or drinks will be
colder but in any case goods
will be frozen. Please, do not
use the fresh zone to frozen food or to add
ice cubes inside.

• SThere should always be space between
foods to facilitate air circulation.
• Food should be kept in an airtight
package to prevent it from drying or
having a bad odor.
• Hot food must be cooled before being
placed in the fridge. Otherwise, the
temperature and therefore the power
consumption will increase.
• Vegetables should be placed in the
fridge's drawers. Never freeze fresh
fruits and vegetables, as they will be
unfit for consumption after thawing.
• Reducing the frequency of the door
being opened can efficiently reduce
electricity consumption.
• Place fresh foods, such as fish or meat,
in the fridge to preserve their flavor and
nutrients.
• Food should be frozen in aluminum
foil, transparent kitchen paper or in an
airtight container.
• Do not put fresh food directly in contact
with already frozen food.
• If you buy frozen foods, take them home
and place them in the freezer as quickly
as possible.
• Never refreeze a defrosted product.
• Do not store liquids in bottles or cans,
except for high-proof drinks. Avoid
storing carbonated drinks in the freezer,
as they will burst during freezing.
Fresh food care:
• Store foods that are fresh and of good
quality. Make sure foods are tightly
wrapped or covered before storing. This
will prevent food from dehydration,
spoilage or loss of flavor and help
maintain freshness. It will also prevent
odor transfer. It is not necessary to wrap
vegetables and fruit if they are stored in
the crisper drawer of the fridge.
• Make sure foods that give off a strong
odor are wrapped or covered properly
and placed away from foods such as
butter or milk that may be contaminated
by such strong odors.
• Allow hot foods to cool down before
placing them in the fridge.
