want. If large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers except for the
bottom drawer which needs to be in place
to provide good air circulation. On all
shelves it is possible to place food that protrude until 15 mm from the door.
Important! In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to a power
failure, if the power has been off for longer
that 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 in the refrigerator
compartment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.

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 energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave
it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the Temperature Regulator is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings to
allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
At the time of putting it back, slightly lift the
front of the basket to insert it into the freezer. Once you are over the end points, push
the baskets back in their position.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one tray for
the production of ice-cubes.
1. Fill the tray with water.
2. Put the tray in the freezer compartment
Important! Do not use metallic instruments
to remove the tray from the freezer.
• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if
it has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two
days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these
should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruits and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special
drawer(s) provided. When in contact, lemon
juice can discolor the plastic parts of your
fridge. It is therefore recommended to keep
citruses in separate containers.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed
in special airtight containers or wrapped in
aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude
as much air as possible.
Bottles: these should have a cap and should
be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
ENGLISH 16
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
further food to be frozen should be added during 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 polythene 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
removal 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
The freezer baskets ensure that it is quick
and easy to find the food package you
want. If large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers except for the
bottom basket which needs to be in place
to provide good air circulation.
To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the
retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in
the shortest 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.
