loading food to be frozen.

• The alarm light indicates when the temperature
inside the freezer compartment has risen to a
point at which safe storage of frozen foods can
no longer be guaranteed. When the appliance is
first started up, or after having loaded a quantity
of food to be frozen, this warning light will stay or
until a safe storage temperature has been
reached.

• Products to be frozen should be placed in the fast
freeze compartment and, once frozen, moved to
the storage baskets.

• The maximum freezing capacity is 13 kg in 24
hours. Do not freeze more than one quantity at a
time.

Useful hints for freezing

• Products to be frozen should be fresh and clean.

• Pack foods in suitable family portions which can
be used up all at once.

• Small packs allow fast and uniform freezing.

• Lean foods keep better and longer than fatty
foods. Salt reduces the storage life of food.

•Wrap foods closely in aluminium foil or plastic
bags or film, and make sure they are properly
sealed.

• Attach a label to each pack, indicating the
contents and the date on which it was prepared.

• Never place hot foods, bottles or containers with
fizzy drinks in the freezer (they could explode).

• Do not fill containers with lids right to the brim.

• Do not add more food or open the doors during
the freezing process.

• Never place food to be frozen in contact with
already frozen food, as this would increase the
temperature of the latter.

on both doors simultaneously (as shown in the
figure).

• Do not place hot food or drinks in the refrigerator;
wait until they trave cooled to room temperature.

• Always cover foods, especially those which are
strong-smelling or aromatic.

• Place foods so that air can circuiate freely round
them.

The temperature selected may be adjusted to
compensate for temperature variations due to:

• The frequency with which the doors are opened.

• Difference in ambient temperature.

• Quantity of food being stored.

To make the best use of available space, the front
half-shelves may be stacked on top of the rear
halfshelves.

To achieve automatic defrosting of the refrigerator,
the compressor must cut out from time to time. If the
bottom of the compartment becomes covered with
too much frost, push the warmer temperature button
(L) until the compressor starts to cut out periodically.
