colder temperatures, it is suggested to keep them in
the crisper drawers, whenever present. If not present,
maintain an average setting of the thermostat.
It’s suggested to set the temperature at 4°C in the
fridge compartment, and, whether possible, at -18°C
in the freezer compartment.
For frozen food, refer to the storage time written on
the food packaging. This storage time is achieved
whenever the setting respects the reference
temperatures of the compartment (one-star -6°C, two
stars -12°C, three stars -18°
