Freezer mode
The use of temperatures of 0°F
/
-18 °C
or colder to store food means that the food can be kept
for longer periods than when refrigeration temperatures are used. This is because the growth
of bacteria, moulds and yeasts are stopped, and chemical and physical reactions are severely
restricted at such low temperatures. This results in food staying fresher for longer.
To use Freezer mode:
1
Press and hold the LOCK
button for 3 seconds to unlock the control panel.
2
Press the MODE SELECT
button.
3
Scroll to FREEZER
mode.
4
The Freezer mode icon will flash until the compartment is at a suitable
temperature for food to be added into the compartment (this will take
between 1 – 6 hours).
