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. Fresh
food must be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE
compartment where the temperature drops below -18°C
and guarantees rapid freezing.
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):
- for small quantities which are less than half the
figure indicated on the data plate, press the rapid
freezing SUPER FREEZE button (the corresponding
yellow indicator light illuminates), place the food
inside and close the door. The function is disabled
automatically after 24 hours or when optimal
temperatures have been reached (indicator light
goes out);
- for large quantities which are greater than half the
figure indicated on the data plate, hold down the
rapid freezing SUPER FREEZE button until the
corresponding indicator light begins to flash. After
another 24 hours, the function will be disabled
automatically (indicator light goes out).
In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the
freezer compartment, you may remove the bins
(except the lowest bin and the special COOL CARE
ZONE bin, which has an adjustable temperature)
and place the food directly onto the evaporator
plates.
!
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.
