Daily use

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food
and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.

4

Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders,
as these will damage the finish.

To freeze fresh food activate the Fast Freeze function at
least 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen in the
freezer compartment.

Place the fresh food to be frozen in the two top compart­ments.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24
hours is specified on the rating plate , a label located on
the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period
do not add other food to be frozen.
After 24 hours, when the freezing process is completed,
return to the required temperature (see "Temperature reg­ulation").

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before
putting the products in the compartment let the appliance
run at least 12 hours on the Fast Freeze setting.
If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all
drawers and baskets from appliance and place food on
cooling shelves to obtain the best performance.

Warning! Make sure that foods do not exceed the
load limit stated on the side of the upper section

(where applicable)

Helpful Hints and Tips

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.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly
from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.

Cold accumulators

The freezer contains at least one cold accumulator which
increases storage time in the event of a power cut or
breakdown.

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

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.

Care and cleaning

Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore

only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• clean the inside and accessories with lukewarm water
and some neutral soap.

• regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure
they are clean and free from debris.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/
or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed
cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as
this will damage the surface and leave a strong odour.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at
the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
This operation will improve the performance of the ap­pliance and save electricity consumption.

Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chem-

icals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this ap-

pliance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer
casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water
with a little washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains
supply.

Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment of this model, on the other hand,
is a "no frost" type. This means that there is no buildup
of frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls
nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous circulation
of cold air inside the compartment, driven by an auto­matically controlled fan.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take
the following precautions:

• disconnect the appliance from electricity supply

• remove all food

•

• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to check it
once in a while to prevent the food inside from spoiling
in case of a power failure.
