Whirlpool Arc 7518 W Product Sheet

							PRODUCT SHEET  GB 
Your new appliance is a combined ventilated, No-Frost fridge-
freezer exclusively for domestic use.
Whirlpool Total-no-frost fridge freezers circulate chilled air around 
the storage areas, reducing humidity to prevent the formation of ice, 
thereby completely eliminating the need for defrosting. Frozen items 
don’t stick to the walls, labeling stays legible and storage space 
remains neat and clear. No-Frost’s temperature control helps keep 
food fresher for longer.
