Using the freezer to its full potential
Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the
temperature (
see Description
).
Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already
been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten
(within 24 hours).
Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been defrosted.
Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer
because they could break.
The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator
compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4).
To freeze (if the freezer is already operating): press the
rapid freezing SUPER FREEZE button (corresponding
yellow indicator light illuminates), insert the food and
close the door. The function is disabled automatically
after 24 hours or when optimal temperatures have been
reached (indicator light goes out);
!
to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer
compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the
ventilation holes with food or containers.
!
Do not open the door during freezing.
!
If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for
at least 9 -14 hours.
ICE DEVICE
After pouring water in the special
ice cups, place them in their
places in the ice device. After
about 2 hours, the ice cubes will
be ready. In order to get the ice
cubes, it will be sufficient to turn
the two buttons to the right. The
ice cubes will fall in to the tray
below, ready to be used.
TEMPERATURE
Indicator light
*
: to identify the
coldest area in the refrigerator.
1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light
(
see diagram
).
2. If the word OK does not appear it means that the
temperature is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION knob to a higher position (colder) and
wait approximately 10 hours until the temperature
has been stabilised.
3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary,
readjust it following the initial process. If large
quantities of food have been added or if the
refrigerator door has been opened frequently, it is
normal for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at
least 10 hours before adjusting the REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION knob to a higher setting.
Food hygiene
1. Once you have bought your food, remove all
external packaging made of paper/cardboard or
other wrappers, which could introduce bacteria or
dirt inside your refrigerator.
2. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable
items and those that have a strong smell), in order
to avoid contact between them, thereby removing
both the possibility of germ/bacteria contamination
as well as the diffusion of strong odours inside the
fridge.
3. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air can
circulate freely between different items.
4. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care
not to use oxidiser or abrasive products.
5. Remove all food past its expiry date from the
refrigerator.
6. For the correct preservation of food, all easily
perishable items (soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc.)
should be stored in the coldest zone of the fridge
compartment, i.e. just above the salad crisper
where the temperature indicator is situated.

Available only on certain models.
If you need more storage
space, the ICE DEVICE may be
taken out after you have
removed the 4 fixing screws.
