Refrigerator Compartment:
This compartment is for storing drinks and fresh food products.
The temperature inside is very evenly distributed. Make sure food does not touch the back wall, since
behind this surface is where the cold is generated and food could bee partially frozen. Also, this can impede the
circulation of cold air.
This appliance is provided with an automatic defrosting system. Consequently you will sometimes notice a thin
layer of ice or drops of water on the rear wall.
