Using the freezer to its full potential
• Adjust the temperature using the display.
• When you wish to freeze a lot of food at once, activate
the SUPER FREEZE function. The function is
automatically disabled after 24 hours or once the
optimal temperature has been reached.
• Do not refreeze food that has been defrosted or that is
defrosting; this food must be eaten within 24 hours or
may be frozen again after it has been cooked.
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been defrosted.
Fresh food must be packed in the top FREEZER
compartment where the temperature drops below -
18°C and guarantees rapid freezing.
• Do not place glass bottles containing liquids or bottles
that are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer as
they may break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen each
day is indicated on the plate containing the technical
properties located on the bottom left side of the
refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h 4).
! Do not open the door during the freezing process.
! Do not open the freezer door if there is a power cut or
malfunction. This will help maintain the temperature inside
the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least
9 -14 hours.
Ever Fresh
The absence of air inside the containers ensures that
food is preserved for longer periods of time while
maintaining its original appearance, taste and nutritional
characteristics.

depend on the initial freshness of the products,
preparation and storage methods, and correct use of the
Ever Fresh function.

FRESH*
! The food’s tendency to spoil and use-by date must
always be borne in mind when using the Ever Fresh food
storage system. This method of storing food does not
change any of the characteristics of the food.
! Use only the containers that come with the product to
store food in the Ever Fresh system. Do not use any other
type of container.
Ever Fresh system
The Ever Fresh system is activated and deactivated by
means of a button on the refrigerator shelf, an external
button on the display and a knob on the cover of each
container.
! There is a pump in the centre of the Ever Fresh shelf
which sucks the air out of the containers.
Activating and deactivating Ever Fresh
1. Fill the container. Make sure that the food inside leaves
room for the container to be closed properly.
2. Put the lid on the container.
3. Close the handles on either
side of the container and turn the
knob on the lid of the container
all the way to the CLOSE
position. Then turn the knob
anticlockwise to the VACUUM
position
(see figure A).
4. Press the button on the shelf
and place the container in the
central position (see figure B).
5. Lock the container into
position by pulling the button on
the shelf (see figure C).
6. Activate the Ever Fresh
function by pressing the relevant
button on the external display
(the Ever Fresh icon will light up).
A slight noise can be heard while
the Ever Fresh system is in
operation.
7. Wait for the signal that the operation has finished (the
Ever Fresh icon will switch off).
