OPERATION

ENGLISH

•  Do not store food for a long period of time if it 

spoils easily at a low temperature.

•  Do not place unfrozen food in direct contact with 

food that is already frozen. It could be necessary 

to reduce the quantity to be frozen if freezing 

every day is anticipated.

•  Place the refrigerated food or frozen food in 

each fridge or freezer compartment 

immediately after purchasing.

•  Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in 

the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or 

drip onto other food.

•  Refrigerated foods and other food items can be 

stored on top of the vegetable drawer.

•  Avoid refreezing any food which has been 

completely thawed. Freezing any food which has 

been completely thawed again will lower its taste 

and nutrition.

•  Cool hot food before storing. If too much hot 

food is placed inside, the internal temperature of 

the appliance can increase and negatively affect 

other foods stored in the appliance.

•  Do not overfill the appliance. Cold air can not 

circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.

•  If you set an excessively low temperature for 

food, it may become frozen. Do not set a 

temperature lower than the required 

temperature for the food to be stored correctly.

•  If there are chill compartments in the appliance, 

do not store vegetables and fruits with higher 

moisture content in the chill compartments as 

they may freeze due to the lower temperature.

•  In the event of a blackout, call the electricity 

company and ask how long it is going to last.
-  You should avoid door openings while the 

power is off.

-  When the power supply gets back to normal, 

check the condition of the food.

Maximum Freezing Capacity

• 

Express Freeze

 function will allow the freezer to 

reach its maximum freezing capacity. This 

generally takes up to 24 hours and automatically 

switches off.

• 

Express Freeze

 must be switched on for 2 hours 

before fresh products are placed in the freezer 

compartment.

•  To get better air circulation, insert all inner parts 

like baskets and shelves.

Freezing the Maximum Amount 

of Food

If large quantities of food are to be stored, the 

icemaker should be taken out of the appliance and 

the food should be stacked directly on the freezer 

shelves in the freezer compartment.

NOTE

•  Insert the icemaker in the right position.

Two Star Compartment

•  Two star (

a

) basket or drawer can be used to 

store ice and food from -12 °C to -18 °C for short 

periods.

•  Two star frozen food compartments are suitable 

for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making 

icecream and making ice cubes.

•  Two star compartments are not suitable for the 

freezing of fresh food.
