Functions and Additional Details

The appliance incorporates a Total No Frost system with automatic defrost, removing the need for manual defrosting. Ventilated cooling with MultiFlow and a fan ensures forced distribution of cold air in the refrigerator compartment for even temperature distribution.

The LED display shows programmes, functions and options selected, as well as the time to the end of the cycle. Available functions include fast freezing, ECO (economical) mode and temperature alarm. The ECO mode analyses fridge functioning during activation and optimises the operating cycle in order to reduce power consumption.

Safety and convenience features include a temperature alarm, a temperature alarm lamp and an acoustic and visual door open alarm. The 4–star freezing compartment provides better food preservation and a fast freezing function that brings the temperature of the compartment down when activated a few hours prior to usage.

LED interior lighting offers a more energy efficient and long lasting way of illuminating the interior of the appliance. The humidity control and Air plus feature help keep food fresher for longer.
