Fast Freeze
We have created the Fast Freeze feature to help you to get the best possible results when
freezing fresh food. Fast Freeze boosts the freezing speed, which helps to ensure vital freshness,
texture and taste are retained during the freezing process.
The Fast Freeze feature drops the freezer to its coldest temperature for a 12 hour period and
then returns to its normal mode. You may wish to use this when freezing a quantity of meat or
when making frozen desserts.
To activate, use the button until the Fast Freeze icon ( ) is showing on the
screen. Then use the or buttons until the snowflakes ( ) are
displayed on the Fast Freeze screen. The animating snowflakes indicate that Fast Freeze has been
activated.
To deactivate the function manually, use the button to scroll to the Fast Freeze icon ( )
on the screen. Then use the and until there are no snowflakes ( ) present on the screen.
For best results, we recommend that you activate the function approximately 2 hours before it is
required. Alternatively, activate it when placing food into the freezer.
Note: The Bottle Chill and Fast Freeze option cannot be used at the same time.
The temperature of your refrigerator and freezer
When the refrigerator is first turned on it will take approximately 2 to 3 hours to cool, depending
on the humidity and temperature of the environment.
To adjust the temperature of a compartment, use the button to scroll to the
screen, use the button to select the compartment you want to change.
The temperature can then be adjusted using the button to make the compartment warmer or
the button to make the compartment colder.
The temperature setting will be indicated on the icon below.
It is important to have your refrigerator set to the correct temperature. Setting it too cold may
cause some items in the refrigerator to freeze, and setting it too warm will decrease the storage
life of your food.
For further information on food storage refer to the Food Care section (pages 35 – 37).
