The appliance has a 4 star freezer
compartment in which food can be stored for
the time indicated on the packaging. The
freezer can also be used to freeze fresh food
by positioning it on the racks; place frozen
food in the lower basket so that there is no
contact with fresh food that has yet to be
frozen.
The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen
in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.
Freezing fresh food
If your appliance is equipped with a single
compressor:
• Set the thermostat knob to 2-3.
• If the appliance is equipped with a freeze
button, press it to activate the function (the
yellow indicator light will switch on). Also the
red indicator light (models with control panel)
may switch on. The red indicator light will
switch off when the freezer compartment has
reached the optimum temperature.
Note:
The freeze function makes it possible to freeze
fresh food while maintaining the temperature in
the refrigerator compartment at the optimum
level.
Rapid freezing function
If your appliance is equipped with two
compressors, activate the rapid freezing function
6 hours before inserting fresh food to obtain the
maximum freezing power as indicated on the
rating plate.
Important:
•
Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in:
aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight
plastic bags, polythene containers with lids
or special freezer containers.
• Arrange the fresh food in the upper area of
the freezer compartment, leaving sufficient
space around each pack for the air to
circulate.
• The food will be completely frozen in 24 hours.
• Press the rapid freezing button to switch off
the function (yellow indicator light switches
off).
Temperature alarm function
(control panel versions)
When the appliance is running normally or when
food is being frozen, the red led may switch on
(in certain models this will be accompanied also
by an audible signal) informing you that the
temperature in the freezer compartment is too
high.
This may occur in the following situations:
•
when the appliance is switched on for the first
time;
• when it is switched on following defrosting
and cleaning;
• if you load too much food at room
temperature;
• if the freezer door has been left ajar;
• if the “freezer thermostat knob” on the control
panel is advanced towards the “MAX” setting
(intense cold);
To mute the acoustic alarm press the “Fast
freeze” button.
When temperature in the freezer compartment
has fallen to acceptable levels, the red indicator
LED will switch off automatically. At this point
remember to switch off the “Fast freeze”
function.
