Freezing
Freezing food
The freezing area is marked with
symbol.
You can use the appliance for freezing fresh
food as well as for storing pre-frozen food
Please refer to the recommendations given
on the packaging of your food.
Attention
Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the bottle may
burst when the liquid in it is frozen.
Be careful with frozen products such as
coloured ice-cubes.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your
appliance in 24 hours. See the rating label.
In order to maintain the quality of the food, the
freezing must be effected as rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not be
exceeded, and the temperature inside the
freezer will not rise.
Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food always
separated with freshly placed food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the cooling
compressor will work until the food is completely
frozen. This can temporarily cause excessive
cooling of the refrigeration compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult to open just
after you have closed it, don’t worry. This is
due to the pressure difference which will
equalize and allow the door to open normally
after a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just after closing
the door. This is quite normal.
Defrosting of the appliance
The appliance is a frost free refrigerator.
So there will not be any frost accumulation
inside the food storage area.
However there will be an automatic defrost at
the evaporation area of the appliance when it
is required. The water is collected into a
reservoir at the back of the appliance and
evaporates automatically through the
compressor heat.
Ensure that the reservoir is fixed properly
above the compressor.
