Use of the freezer compartment
The freezer is provided with the
symbol which means that it is
suitable for freezing fresh food and
for long term storage of frozen and
deep-frozen food.
Temperature regulation
The temperature may be regulated
between -16°C and -22°C.
We suggest setting the internal
temperature of approximately -18°C,
which guarantees proper freezing and
conservation of the frozen foods.
Attention!
A difference between the temperature
displayed and temperature setting is
normal. Especially when:
- a new setting has recently been
selected
- the door has been left open for a long
time
- warm food has been placed in the
compartment
A difference up to 5°C inside the
compartment is normal.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the warmest temperature inside
the compartment.
Important
In the event of accidental defrosting,
for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer
than the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in the
freezer compartment (for example due to
an power failure) is indicated by:
- flashing temperature;
- freezer compartment flashing ;
- flashing of the icon ;
- sounding of buzzer.
When normal conditions are restored:
- the acoustic signal shuts off;
- the temperature value continues to
flash;
When you press key "E" to deactivate the
alarm, the highest temperature reached
in the compartment appears on the
display for some seconds. Then it returns
to normal operation showing the
temperature of the selected
compartment.
During the alarm phase, the buzzer can
be switched off by pressing key E.
Door open acoustic alarm
An acoustic alarm will sound when the
door is left open for around 5 minutes.
The door open alarm conditions are
indicated by:
- flashing symbol of the relative
compartment
- sounding of buzzer.
Press the key (E) to stop the acoustic
alarm.
When normal conditions are restored
(door closed):
- the acoustic alarm will stop.
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen
and deep-frezen food, and for freezing
fresh food.
