• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been

defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24
hours).

• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with

food that has already been defrosted.

• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are

corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could
break.

• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is indicated

on the plate containing the technical properties located on the
bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/

Do not open the door during freezing.

!

If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer door.

This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring
that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.

ice tray

The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer drawers
ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with
the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore, the
dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole
after filling with water is also provided).

1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up. Check that the tray is ompletely

empty and fill it with water through the opening provided.

2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER LEVEL).

Excess water prevents the ice cubes from dispensing (if this
happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray).

3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each mould

fills with water (see diagram).

4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray back,

placing the top part in the corresponding housing and allowing it to
drop in again.

5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8 hours)

knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the outside so that
the ice cubes come loose and take them out through the opening.
