The refrigerator compartment is
equipped with the MULTIFLOW device
that allows for rapid and more effective

MULTIFLOW operates only when the
door is closed.
Do not block the air vents to
allow better cooling.
Do not remove the
MULTIFLOW panel.
Do not use water spray or
steam to clean the
appliance. For cleaning
instructions, refer to the
"Care and cleaning" chapter.
5.7 Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen
and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the
Frostmatic function at least 24 hours
before placing the food to be frozen in
the freezer compartment.
Store the fresh food evenly distributed in
the first compartment or drawer from the
top.
The maximum amount of food that can
be frozen without adding other fresh food
during 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate (a label located inside the
appliance).
When the freezing process is complete,
the appliance automatically returns to the
previous temperature setting (see
"Frostmatic function").
For more information refer to "Hints for
freezing".
5.8 Storage of frozen food
When activating an appliance for the first
time or after a period out of use, before

the Frostmatic function switched on.
The freezer drawers ensure that it is
quick and easy to find the food package
you want.
If large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers and place the
food on shelves.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm
from the door.
CAUTION!
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
on rating plate under "rising

or cooked immediately then
