- Install it well
And therefore far from heat sources, from direct sunlight, in
a well aired place and according to the distances indicated
in the section on "Installation/Aeration".
- Just the right cold
Too cold a compartment increases energy consumption.
- Do not Overfill
To conserve food properly, the cold air must circulate freely
within the refrigerator. If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper
air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.
- Close the Doors
Open your refrigerator as little as possible because each time
you do so you loose much of the cold air. To raise the tem-
perature to the proper level again, the motor must work for
a long time, consuming energy.
Keeping Your Appliance in Shape
How to Defrost the Refrigerator
This appliance defrosts automatically and the water is chan-
neled to the back toward the drain installed for this purpose
(fig. 7). Here, the heat produced by the compressor will make
it evaporate. The only thing you must do is to periodically
check and clean the hole of the drain, which is located be-
hind the vegetable crispers, so that the water drains prop-
erly.

- Keep an Eye on the Seals
Keep the seals clean and make sure that they adhere well to
the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.
- No Hot Foods
A hot pot or pan placed in the refrigerator immediately raises
the temperature several degrees. Let hot cookware and food
cool to ambient temperature before placing them in the re-
frigerator.
- Defrost the Freezer
Check the thickness of the frost on the walls of the freezer
and immediately defrost it if the layer of frost is too thick.
(see the section entitled, "Keeping your Appliance in Shape").
How to defrost the freezer compartment
Remember to regularly remove frost with the scraper pro-
vided (never use a knife).
When the layer of frost is more than 5 mm thick you should
defrost the appliance. Follow these steps: set knob A to " ";
wrap deep frozen and frozen foods in newspaper; and place
them in the refrigerator or in a cool place. Leave the freezer
door open so that the frost thaws completely, placing basins
of warm water in the freezer to speed up defrosting.
The unit is provided with a system which allows the defrost
water to be collected in a container to be placed beneath
the unit (proceed as illustrated in fig. 8).
Dry the inside of the unit carefully.
