Using Your Appliance
In the event of a power cut
If the power failure is 3 hours or less, food can remain
inside the appliance. Keep the door closed to maintain
the temperature inside.
If the power cut is longer than 3 hours, remove all food,
wrap well and store in a cool dry place.
Important: Be aware that the storage life of the food
will have been reduced. Use up this food as soon as pos-
sible or discard. Do not re-freeze food which has
thawed, either consume or cook and re-freeze if appropri-
ate.
The drainage chanel
The drainage chanel collects water on the back wall of
the refrigerator and ensures that it is drained away into a
drip tray at the rear of the appliance.
