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)
• In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the
freezer compartment, you may remove the bins
(except the lowest bin and the special COOL CARE
ZONE bin, which has an adjustable temperature)
and place the food directly onto the evaporator
plates.
! 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.
Fast Freeze Switch
Fast Freeze switch
The appliance is fitted with a manual "Fast Freezer"
switch.
When loading fresh food to freeze switch "Fast Freeze"
on.
To set "Fast Freeze" ON,
press the switch to "I"
This switch activates
intensive cooling to
ensure that required
temperatures are reached
quickly.
So when the fresh food is
frozen return the switch to
its OFF position, "0".
Note: for Energy Saving ensure that "Fast Freeze" is
switched off after 24 hours.
For the refrigerator to operate properly the "Fast
Freeze" button must be ON when room temperature is
16°C or lower.
