HOW TO OPERATE THE LOW TEMPERATURE
COMPARTMENT
HOW TO DEFROST AND CLEAN THE LOW
TEMPERATURE COMPARTMENT
If installed, the star low temperature compartment
may be used to store frozen products for the time indicated
on the packaging.
When purchasing frozen food products:
• Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen food in
damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package is
swollen or has damp patches, it may not have been stored under
optimal conditions and defrosting may have already begun.
• When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and
transport the products in a thermally insulated cool bag.
• Place the items in the low temperature compartment as soon as
you get home.
• If food has defrosted even partially, do not re-freeze it.
Consume within 24 hours.
• Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum.
Respect the best-before date on the package.
• Always observe the storage information on the package.
Making ice cubes
• Fill the ice-tray 3/4 full of water and place it in the bottom of the
low temperaturecompartment.
If the ice-tray sticks to the bottom, do not use pointed or
sharp instruments to detach it.
For optimum performance, we recommend to defrost the
low temperature compartment twice a year, or when the
ice on the walls reaches a thickness of about 3 mm
If possible, defrost the freezer when it is nearly empty.
1. Remove the food from the freezer, wrap in newspaper and
group together in a cool place or in a portable cooler.
2. Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply.
3. Leave the door open to allow the frost/ice to melt.
4. Remove the defrost water with a sponge.
5. Clean the freezer compartment using a sponge dampened in a
solution of warm water and neutral detergent. Do not use
abrasive products.
6. Rinse and dry carefully.
• Note: Do not use sharp or pointed metal instruments to
scrape off ice; do not heat the low temperature
compartment artificially.
