7.4.2 Rapid freezing
To activate this function press switch 3 described in section “7. Setting and selecting the freezer
compartment operating temperature”.
If the orange light is on, the function has been activated. When this function is set the refrigeration
system operates continuously and allows rapid freezing of large amounts of fresh foods. Small amounts
of fresh foods (up to about 2 kg) can be frozen even without activating the rapid freezing function.
To avoid wasting electricity, do not keep this function activated unless really necessary. The rapid
freezing switch should be turned on the first time the freezer is turned on, and whenever it is turned on
after a period out of use, to lower the temperature in the relative compartment more quickly. Do not place
fresh or frozen foods inside until the red light (2) described in section “7. Setting and selecting the freezer
compartment operating temperature”, which indicates that the set temperature has not been reached
completely, has gone out.
External thermometer
Indicates the approximate temperature in the freezer compartment. It takes the thermometer a few hours
to respond to changes in the thermostat knob setting because of the thermal inertia of the sensor.
Important
The cooling temperature should be set so that the reading on the thermometer is -18°C or below.
This is the best range for the proper storage of frozen and deep frozen foods.
