It is therefore quite normal for the fan not to operate sometimes when the Start button has been correctly pressed. 4 3 5 EN A 4 3 5 B C A.

You also avoid the taste of some foods contaminating the taste of others. Only vegetables, fruit and salad vegetables can be stored in the vegetable compartment without being packed. You should not exceed these. Arranging food in your refrigerator The temperature inside your refrigerator is not uniform. Some areas are colder than others and you must store your food in the appropriate areas according to their type to ensure that they can be kept safely. Frozen and deep-frozen food, ice Cream desserts, cheese, yoghurts, crème fraîche, sauces Eggs, butter Bottles, milk Meat, poultry, game and fresh fish, cooked meats Fresh vegetables, fruit 38 Arranging food in your refrigerator EN Leave a space between the food items to allow the air to circulate freely and avoid different products contaminating each other. Do not put packages and food in contact with the wall at the back of the appliance: this is a particularly cold and damp area of the appliance and water droplets and frost condense there as part of your refrigerator's normal operation. "Cold Zone" symbols The coldest area, indicated by the logo opposite, is designed for delicate, sensitive and highly perishable food: meat, poultry, fish, cooked meats, prepared dishes, ready-made salads, egg or cream-based dishes and pastries, fresh pasta, pastry, pizza/quiches, fresh produce and raw milk cheese, ready-to-use vegetables sold in plastic bags and, more generally, any fresh product whose consume-by date is linked to its storage at a temperature of +4°C or below. Your refrigerator's modular layout Your refrigerator has been designed to make arranging food in it easy. You can adjust the shelves and the racks to suit your wishes. The Maxi-Fresh area (depending on the model) The MAXI-FRESH compartment is recommended for storing fish and meat. It can be moved to different levels inside your refrigerator if the Regulated Cold system is activated (see the section on Mixed or regulated Cold). Automatic defrosting The refrigerator section of your appliance defrosts fully automatically. The water created by defrosting flows to a collection tank situated over the motor. It is quite normal for droplets of water or frost to appear on the wall at the back of your refrigerator. [. . . ] Place a pan of hot water on a small plank of wood or a placemat to isolate it and place them both inside your freezer to speed up the defrosting process. Never use a heater, hairdryer or any other electrical appliance nor any knives or other metal objects to speed up defrosting: you could damage your appliance irremediably. Clean your freezer before resetting the temperature as shown in the section on "Setting your refrigerator's temperature" and replacing the food (see the section on "Cleaning your appliance"). 45 Ongoing maintenance of your appliance Disconnect your appliance prior to performing any maintenance operation. Grasp the plug directly, instead of pulling on the power cable. EN Periodically check that the drain hole for the defrosting water is not blocked and clean it with a stick as shown in the Drawing. Cleaning your appliance We recommend that you clean and disinfect your appliance regularly for improved hygiene and to keep your food completely safe: the refrigerator section should be cleaned once a month and the freezer after each time you defrost it.
