Using the freezer to its full potential
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 above the grill
in the freezer compartment and if possible be in
direct contact with the walls (side and rear), 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)
! 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.
! If the room temperature drops below 14°C for an
extended period of time, the ideal temperature will not
be reached in the freezer compartment and food
preservation will be reduced.
ICE TRAY
The Easy Ice trays are set into the freezer door to
maximise the space within the freezer. The trays are
drip-free and sealed to prevent food from tainting the
ice cubes.
1. Pull out the tray by pushing it
up and then outwards (
see
diagram
).
Check that the tray is ompletely
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.
