Using the freezer to its full potential
• Use the FREEZER OPERATION and APPLIANCE
ON/OFF Knob to adjust the temperature (
see
Description
).
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has
already been defrosted. These foods must be
cooked and eaten (within 24 hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come
into contact with food that has already been
defrosted. Fresh food must be stored in the top
FREEZER and STORAGE compartment where the
temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees
rapid freezing.
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids,
and which are corked or hermetically sealed in the
freezer because they could break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily
is indicated on the plate containing the technical
properties located on the bottom left side of the
refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4).
• To freeze (if the freezer is already operating):
- For small quantities, less than the maximum capacity
indicated on the data plate (situated on the lower left,
next to the salad crisper), enable the SUPER FREEZE
function on the display in the "24 hour" mode and
insert the food to be frozen. To enable the function,
press the MODE button as many times as necessary
for the SUPER FREEZE symbol to start flashing and
then press the SELECT button to enable the SUPER
FREEZE function. After 24 hours, or once the optimal
temperatures have been reached, the rapid freezing
function is automatically disabled.
- For large quantities of food to be frozen (up until the
maximum load indicated on the data plate situated on
the lower left, next to the salad crisper), enable the
SUPER FREEZE function on the display in the "48
hours" mode: To enable the function, press the MODE
button as many times as necessary for the SUPER
FREEZE symbol to start flashing and then press the
SELECT button for more than three seconds to ensure
the function is enabled (symbol SUPER FREEZE
function starts to flash slowly). After 24 hours, the
function symbol will stop flashing and go back to
being permanently lit; you can now insert the food to
be frozen. After another 24 hours, the function will be
disabled automatically.
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved
for at least 9 -14 hours.
ICE trays.
The Easy Ice trays are set into the top part of the freezer
drawers to maximise the space within the freezer. The trays
are drip-free and sealed to prevent food from tainting the ice
cubes.
1. Check that the tray is completely empty and fill it with
water through the opening provided.
2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER
LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes from
dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to melt and
empty the tray).
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments
each mould fills with water (
see diagram
).
4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray
back, placing the top part in the corresponding housing
and allowing it to drop in again.
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8
hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the
outside so that the ice cubes come loose and take them
out through the opening.
