Temperature Instruction
Recommended Temperature
The optimal temperature setting for food storage:
• Fridge: 3 °C
• Freezer: -19 °C
NOTE
The optimal temperature setting of each compartment depends on the ambient temperature. Above optimal temperature is based on the
ambient temperature of 25 °C.
Power Cool
Power Cool speeds up the cooling process at maximum fan speed. The fridge keeps running at full speed for two and a half hours and then
returns to the previous temperature.
Power Freeze
Power Freeze speeds up the freezing process at maximum fan speed. The freezer keeps running at full speed for 50 hours and then returns to
the previous temperature. To freeze large amounts of food, activate Power Freeze for at least 20 hours before putting food in the freezer.

How to store for best preservation (applicable models only)
Cover foods to retain moisture and prevent them from picking up odors from other foods. A large pot of food like soup or stew should be divided
into small portions and put in shallow containers before being refrigerated. A large cut of meat or whole poultry should be divided into smaller
pieces or placed in shallow containers before refrigerating.
Placement of Foods
Shelves Shelves should be adjustable to accommodate a variety of packages.
Specialized compartment
(applicable models only)
Sealed crisper drawers provide an optimal storage environment for fruits and vegetables.
Vegetables require higher humidity conditions while fruits require lower humidity conditions.
Crispers are equipped with controls devices to control the humidity level. (*Depending on model
and options) An adjustable temperature meat drawer maximizes the storage time of meats and
cheeses.
Stored on the door
Don’t store perishable foods in the door. Eggs should be stored in the carton on a shelf. The
temperature of the storage bins in the door fluctuate more than the temperature in the cabinet.
Keep the door closed as much as possible.
Freezer Compartment You can store frozen food, make ice cubes and freeze fresh food in the freezer compartment.
NOTE
Freeze fresh, undamaged food only. Keep food which is to be frozen away from food which is already frozen. To prevent food from losing its
flavour or drying out, place in airtight containers.
