WARNING! Refer to Safety
chapters.
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first
time, the interior and all internal
accessories should be washed with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap to
remove the typical smell of a brand-new
product, then dried thoroughly.
CAUTION! Do not use
detergents, abrasive powders,
chlorine or oil-based cleaners
as they will damage the finish.
Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of
various sizes, the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
1. Gradually pull the shelf in the direction
of the arrows until it comes free.
2. Reposition as required.
This model is equipped with a variable
storage box which can be moved
sideways.
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of runners so that the
shelves can be positioned as desired.
7
Do not move the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer to
ensure correct air circulation.
NaturaFresh Compartment
The storage temperature and the relative
humidity (between 45 and 90 %) provide
optimal conditions for the storage of
various kinds of food.
To learn about the temperature settings in
the NaturaFresh compartment please refer
to the “NaturaFresh compartment setting”
section.
NaturaFresh compartment is suitable for
the storage of a variety of fresh food as it
preserves its high nutritional values as
well as high humidity level much longer in
comparison to the regular refrigerator.
The NaturaFresh compartment is also
suitable for defrosting food.
The thawed food can be stored up to two
days.
Humidity control
The compartment has stops that prevent
the drawers from falling out when fully
extended. To remove the drawer:
1. Pull the drawer to the maximum.
2. Lift and pull out the drawer.
The drawers marked with water drop
symbols: and can be used
according to the desired storage
conditions independently of each other
with lower or higher humidity.
Regulation for each drawer is separate
and is controlled using the slide valve at
the front of the drawer.
• “Dry“: low air humidity - up to 50 %
relative humidity.
This humidity level is reached when
both sliders are set into this position
and the ventilation openings are wide
open.
• Humid“: high relative humidity - up to
90%.
This humidity level is reached when
both sliders are set in this position
and the ventilation openings are
closed. Humidity is kept and can not
escape.

Onion "dry” up to 5 months
Butter “dry” up to 1 month

Damsons, grapes “humid” up to 10 days
Blackberries, currants “humid” up to 8 days

Cakes containing cream and
other kinds of pastry products
can be stored in the

or 3 days.
Not to be placed in the
NaturaFresh compartment:
• Cold sensitive fruit which have to be
stored at cellar or room temperature
like pineapple, bananas, grapefruit,
melons, mango, papaya, oranges,
lemons, kiwi fruit.
• The types of food not mentioned above
should be stored in the refrigerator
compartment (e.g. all sorts of cheese,
cold cuts, etc.).
The level of air humidity in the
drawers depends on the
content of humidity in the
stored food, vegetable and fruit
and on the frequency of door
opening.
9
The NaturaFresh compartment is also
suitable for slow thawing of food. In this
case the thawed food can be stored in the
NaturaFresh compartment for up to two
days.
• Pay attention to the freshness of the
food, especially on the expiry date.
Quality and freshness influence the
storage time.
• The whole storage cycle time will
depend on the preservation conditions
made prior to the final storage in the
fridge.
• Food, fruit or vegetables should always
be packed or wrapped up before
storage.
• Animal food: always store packed and
dry.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad
quicker. This means seafood will spoil
before fish which in turn will spoil
before meat. While storing food in a
NaturaFresh compartment storage time
for that kind of food can be increased
by up to three times as well without
loss on quality.
• All food stored in a NaturaFresh
compartment should be taken out of
the drawers roughly 15-30 min before
consumption, particularly fruit and
vegetables to be consumed without any
additional cooking process. Allowing
fruit and vegetables to return to room
temperature will improve the texture
and flavour.
Temperature indicator
For proper storage of food the refrigerator
is equipped with the temperature indicator.
The symbol on the side wall of the
appliance indicates the coldest area in the
refrigerator.
If OK is displayed (A), put fresh food into
area indicated by symbol, if not (B), adjust
the temperature controller to a colder
setting and wait 12 hours before checking
the temperature indicator again.
OK
OK

B
After putting fresh food into the
appliance or after opening the
door repeatedly or for a long
period, it is normal for the
indicator not to show OK. Wait
at least 12 hours before
readjusting the temperature
controller.
Fan
The refrigerator compartment is equipped
with a device that allows rapid cooling of
food and keeps a more uniform
temperature in the compartment.
This device activates automatically when
needed, for example for a quick
temperature recovery after door opening
or when the ambient temperature is high.
The Fan device stops when the
door is open and restarts
immediately after the door
closing.
