STORAGE COMPARTMENTS
Food storage compartment
The food storage compartment is completely closed and
unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the required low
temperature for food storage. Consequently, foods having
a strong odour or those that absorb odours easily should be
covered. Vegetables, salads etc. should be covered to retain
their crispness. The coldest positions in the refrigerator are
The warmer areas are on the upper door shelves. This should
be considered when placing different types of food in the
refrigerator.
Frozen food storage compartment
Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in the
coldest part of the compartment, which is at the bottom of
the aluminium liner. Frozen vegetables, may be stored in any
part of the compartment. This compartment is not designed
or prepared, can be stored in the frozen food storage com-
They can be stored about three times longer in the frozen
food compartment as compared to the fresh food compart-
ment. To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered
dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminium foil.
Ice cubes can be made in the freezer compartment. For faster
ice making, the tray should be placed in direct contact with
the bottom of the freezer compartment. Ice making is acceler-
ated if the thermostat knob B is turned to the “MAX” setting.
It is a good idea to do this a few hours before the anticipated
need for ice, but be sure to turn the thermostat back to normal
setting, usually about mid-setting when the ice is formed.
Food in the lower compartment may be frozen if the setting is
left on “MAX” position.

Cleaning the refrigerator
Always keep the refrigerator clean. Cleaning the refrigera-

Never use strong chemicals or abrasives to clean these
parts, as the protective surfaces will be damaged.
It is important to keep the area at the back of the refrigerator
clean. Check the lower vent, upper vent and area between
these openings for any obstructions such as bird/insect nests,
spider webs, etc. Clean the coils on the back of the refrigera-
tor. Use a soft bristled brush to dust off the coils. Keep the
refrigerator area free from combustible material, gasoline and
