Refrigerator compartment
01. To maintain the characteristics of food and/or liquids, keep them in
closed containers.
02. Avoid placing foods prepared with a large amount of water (soups and
broths) in containers without lids, as they may freeze.
03. Foods with high water content, such as tofu and vegetables, should be
stored in the lower front part of the refrigerator to keep them from
freezing.
04. To keep fruits and vegetables fresh longer, they should be washed,
dried and packed before being placed in the refrigerator.
05. When keeping eggs in the egg compartment, check that they are fresh.
Keep them in a vertical position to remain fresh longer.
06. Leafy greens should be kept in plastic bags in the vegetable and fruit
bin.
07. Dry all foods before placing them in the refrigerator.
08. Do not lean food or objects against the internal back wall of the
refrigerator.
09. Food should be well wrapped to keep it from drying out or giving off
odors
10. Hot foods should be cooled to room temperature before being placed in
the compartments; otherwise they will raise the internal temperature of
the compartments, as well as the appliance's energy consumption.
How to disconnect the refrigerator
Pull the plug out. Remove the ice trays and food.
Leave the door slightly open for air to circulate and to dehumidify both
sections.
Whenever you disconnect the refrigerator, wait at least 10 minutes before
turning it on again.
If you intend to disconnect the refrigerator for a long period of time, you
should unplug it and then clean it thoroughly. Be sure to leave the door
slightly open and leave it in a well ventilated place to avoid unpleasant
odors.

How to save energy
01. The refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary; do
not place hot food inside the refrigerator.
02. The refrigerator door should be properly closed to avoid increased energy
consumption, and the formation of excess ice and/or condensation inside.
03. Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous inside
the refrigerator. For this reason, it is important to properly distribute the
food, to facilitate the flow of air.
04. Do not hang clothing, cloths or objects on the condenser, located behind
the refrigerator. This will affect its functioning, causing strain on the
compressor (motor) and increase energy consumption.
05. During prolonged absences (example: vacations) it is advisable to
disconnect the refrigerator, remove all the food, and clean it. The door
should be left slightly open to avoid mold and unpleasant odors. This will
not affect the refrigerator when it is reconnected.
06. During short absences (ex.: holidays), the refrigerator can remain on.
However, remember that prolonged power outages may occur while you
are gone.
Transportation
To move the refrigerator, do not lean it to the right side of the person facing it.
For short distances, lean it back or to one of its sides, to a 30° angle at most.
For long distances, such as when moving, keep it in an upright position.
Your new refrigerator has a unit of cold which, according to international
standards of quality, ISO, allow you to have the four star rating.
This means that your refrigerator reaches a temperature equal to or less than -
18ºC and a certain capacity of freezing fresh food daily, in the freezer, under
normal conditions, as shown in the technical specifications of each model
