Before using the appliance for the first time
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with
lukewarm water and a neutral soap to remove the characteristic odour of new products. Then
dry thoroughly.
NOTE
Do not use abrasive powders or detergents as they will damage
the finish of the appliance.
Daily use
Freezing fresh food
• The freezing compartment is used to freeze fresh food and to keep food frozen and deep-
frozen for a long period of time.
• Place the fresh food that you wish to freeze in the lower compartment.
• The maximum quantity of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the nameplate.
• The freezing process takes 24 hours; do not add any other food to be frozen during this
period.
Storing deep-frozen food
When using for the first time or after an extended period of downtime, allow the appliance to run
at the lowest temperature setting for at least 2 hours before placing products in the compartment.
NOTE
In the event of accidental defrosting (for example, if the
power is cut for a period longer than shown in the technical
specifications table under the heading “Rise in temperature
period”), the defrosted food must be eaten quickly or cooked
immediately and then refrozen (after cooking).
