5. HINTS AND TIPS
5.1 Hints for energy saving
• The configuration with the drawers in the
bottom part of the appliance and shelves
evenly distributed ensures the most
efficient use of energy. Position of the
door bins does not affect energy
consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than necessary.
ENGLISH 21

• Do not set too high temperature unless it
is required by the characteristics of the
food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the
temperature control is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice
formation on the evaporator. In this case,
set the temperature control toward higher
temperature to allow automatic defrosting.
• Do not cover the ventilation grilles or
holes.
5.2 Hints for food refrigeration
• Fresh food compartment is marked (on the
rating plate) with .
• Good temperature setting that ensures
preservation of fresh food is a temperature
less than or equal to +4°C.
• Always use closed containers for liquids
and for food, to avoid flavours or odours in
the compartment.
• To avoid the cross-contamination between
cooked and raw food, cover the cooked
food and separate it from the raw one.
• Wrap and place meat on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer.
• Defrost the food inside the fridge.
• Do not insert hot food inside the
appliance.
• Clean fruit and vegetables and place in a
dedicated drawer (vegetable drawer).
• Do not keep exotic fruits in the fridge.
• Do not keep vegetables like tomatoes,
potatoes, onions, and garlic in the fridge.
• Close the bottles before you put them into

socket.
Connect a different electrical ap‐
pliance to the mains socket. Con‐
tact a qualified electrician.
The appliance is noisy. The appliance is not supported
properly.
Check if the appliance stands
stable.
Acoustic or visual alarm is on. The door is left open. Close the door.
The compressor operates contin‐
ually.
Temperature is set incorrectly. Refer to "Control panel" chapter.
Too much food is put in at the
same time.
Wait a few hours and then check
the temperature again.
The room temperature is too
high.
Refer to "Installation" chapter.
Food placed in the appliance is
too warm.
Allow food to cool to room tem‐
perature before storing.
The door is not closed correctly. Refer to "Closing the door" sec‐
tion.
The FastCool function is switched
on.
Refer to "FastCool function" sec‐
tion.
The compressor does not start
immediately after pressing the

temperature.
The compressor starts after a pe‐
riod of time.
This is normal, no error has oc‐
curred.
Door is misaligned or interferes
with ventilation grill.
The appliance is not levelled. Refer to installation instructions.
Door does not open easily. You attempted to re-open the
door immediately after closing.
Wait a few seconds between
closing and re-opening of the
door.

water inside the fridge.
Door was opened too frequently. Open the door only when neces‐
sary.
Door was not closed completely. Make sure the door is closed
completely.
Stored food was not wrapped. Wrap food in suitable packaging
before storing it in the appliance.
This is normal that during sum‐
mer and autumn more condensa‐
tion can form due to the in‐
creased air and food humidity.

moisture. After this period, the
humidity in the fridge decreases
itself.
In summer and autumn, set the
warmer temperature in the refrig‐
erator (approx. 6-7°C).
There are water drops on the
glass shelves.
There is too much moisture in‐
side the fridge.
Wipe the glass shelves with a
