USE OF THE FREEZER
The freezer is marked with the
symbol,
which means that the compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and for long-term storage of
frozen food.
Storing of frozen foods
Insert the plug into the wall socket, pilot light (A) will
come on; this indicates that the appliance is switched
on.
Set the knob (D-Fig. 6) to a position between 1 and 6.
To safely store frozen and deep-frozen foods, the
temperature inside the freezer must be at least –18
°
C
or colder.
Therefore, we suggest you turn the knob (D) to a
medium setting.
The temperature inside the freezer is automatically
adjusted to ensure safe storage of the food.
However if the appliance works in unfavourable room
conditions such as poor ventilation, high or low
ambient temperature and frequent door openings, it
might be necessary to adjust the setting.
Turn knob (D) to the higher numbers to obtain lower
temperatures and, conversely, to the lower numbers if
a less cold temperature is required.
Freezer operation can be halted by turning knob (D)
to position «
O
».
The refrigerator will continue to work.
Fast freezing
Turn the knob (E-Fig. 6) to «S» (SUPER) setting
(pilot light (B) comes on).
Warning light
(C-Fig. 6)
This light warns when the temperature inside the
freezer compartment has increased to a point at which
safe storage of food can no longer be guaranteed.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time or
when food is placed in the compartment for freezing,
this light remains on until the temperature has reached
the level required for correct storage.
Freezing of fresh foods
To fast-freeze foods when the appliance has not been
in use, switch on the freezer and let it run on the fast-
freeze setting for at least three hours before putting
the food to be frozen in the compartment.
If the appliance is already in operation, it should run
