Temperature indicator For proper storage of food the refrigerator is equipped with the temperature indicator.
When the freezing process is complete, the appliance automatically returns to the previous temperature setting (see "FastFreeze Function"). In this condition, the temperature inside the refrigerator might change slightly. Storage of frozen food When activating an appliance for the first time or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance run at least 3 hours with the FastFreeze function switched on. Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from the door.
• To avoid increase in temperature of already frozen food, do not place fresh unfrozen food directly next to it. Place food at room temperature in the part of the freezer compartment where there is no frozen food. • Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer. Risk of frostbites. • Do not re-freeze defrosted food. If the food has defrosted, cook it, cool it down and then freeze it. Hints for storage of frozen food • Freezer compartment is the one .

Problem Possible cause Solution Many food products were 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" chap‐ ter. Food products placed in the appliance were too warm. Allow food products to cool to room temperature before storing. The door is not closed cor‐ rectly. Refer to "Closing the door" section. The FastFreeze function is switched on. Refer to "FastFreeze func‐ tion" section.
Problem Possible cause Solution Temperature set in the ap‐ pliance is too low and the ambient temperature is too high. Set a higher temperature. Refer to "Control Panel" chapter. Water flows on the rear plate of the refrigerator. During the automatic de‐ frosting process, frost melts on the rear plate. This is correct. There is too much con‐ densed water on the rear wall of the refrigerator. Door was opened too fre‐ quently. Open the door only when necessary. Door was not closed com‐ pletely.
Problem Possible cause Solution The door has been opened often. Open the door only if neces‐ sary. The FastFreeze function is switched on. Refer to "FastFreeze func‐ tion" section. Some specific surfaces in‐ side the fridge compartment are warmer at some times. Temperature setting LEDs flash at the same time. This is a normal state. An error has occurred in measuring the temperature. If the advice does not lead to the desired result, call the nearest Authorized Service Centre.
