FREEZING FRESH FOOD

Place the fresh food to be frozen on the freezer
compartment rack. Avoid direct contact with already frozen
food. To freeze the
quantity of food shown on the rating plate, rotate the

if chosen set value is 4 move it back to 3,5).
After 24 hours the food will be frozen. Move back the
thermostat knob to the previous position.

REPLACING THE LIGHT BULB

Before replacing the bulb, remove the power plug from the
mains socket.
To remove the light bulb turn anticlockwise as shown in

DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT

The freezer should be defrosted
once or twice a year or when
excessive frost is present (3 mm
thickness).
The formation of frost is normal.
The amount and rate at which
frost accumulates depends on
room conditions and how often
the door is open.

To defrost the unit, switch off the product and take out all
food.
Leave the freezer door open to allow the frost to melt.
For appliances in figure only pull out the defrost water drain
and place a container under the drain.
When the operation is completed, put back the defrost water
drain.
Clean the inside of the freezer. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Switch the appliance back on and store the food inside.

DEFROSTING THE REFRIGERATOR
COMPARTMENT

Refrigerator compartment defrosting is completely
automatic.

Droplets of water on the rear wall inside the refrigerator
compartment indicate that the automatic defrost phase is in
progress. The defrost water is automatically run into a drain
hole and collected in a container, where it evaporates.
