If the Temperature Regulator is left in the
"SUPER" position, the freezer will not be
damaged, but energy will be wasted.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of
use, before putting the products in the freezer
let the appliance run at least 4 hours with the
Temperature Regulator to "SUPER" position.
Important!
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer than the
value shown in the technical characteristics
chart under "rising time", the defrosted food
must be consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-frozen (after cooling).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used,
can be thawed at room temperature.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,
directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking
will take longer.
Helpful Hints and Tips
Normal Operating Sounds
• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling
sound when the refrigerant is pumped
through the coils or tubing. This is correct.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped around and you will hear a
whirring sound and a pulsating noise from
the compressor. This is correct.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden
cracking noise. It is natural, not dangerous
physical phenomenon. This is correct.
• When the compressor switches on or
switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of
the temperature regulator. This is correct.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can be
frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No fur-
ther food to be frozen should be added dur-
ing this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it to
be rapidly and completely frozen and to make
it possible subsequently to thaw only the
quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or poly-
thene and make sure that the packages are
airtight;
• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch
food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a
rise in temperature of the latter;
• lean foods store better and longer than fatty
ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
• water ices, if consumed immediately after re-
moval from the freezer compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing in date on
each individual pack to enable you to keep
tab of the storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appli-
ance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen food-
stuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred
from the foodstore to the freezer in the short-
est possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than absolutely necessary;
• once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and
cannot be refrozen;
• do not exceed the storage period indicated
by the food manufacturer.
