• To preserve flavors, consistency and freshness we suggest wrapping the food in
aluminium or cling foil and placing it in the appropriate containers with a lid.
• Do not put glass containers with warm liquid in the freezer compartment.
• Foods, which easily absorb smells and flavors, should be kept hermetically sealed.
ICE CUBE PRODUCTION
Fill the special pans three quarters with water and place them in the compartment.
Should the pans stick on the bottom of the compartment as they freeze, do not try to
remove them with sharp or pointed objects, they might damage the appliance, instead use a
spoon handle.
CAUTION: Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies (Popsicles) straight after removing
them as they might cause frozen burns.
TIPS ON FREEZING
• Prevent products to be frozen coming into contact with products that are already frozen.
Make sure packets are dry, as this will prevent a number of packets from freezing into a
solid block.
• Always prepare food in individual portions for faster freezing.
• To freeze the maximum quantity of food indicated on the technical data plate, proceed
as follows:
o
Set the button in the "super" position (Yellow LED on) 24 hours before
freezing.
o
For fast freezing, never put food in the baskets.
o
Freeze packed food on the top shelf, directly on the cooling grid and transfer,
when frozen, to the basket shelves for subsequent storage; avoid opening the
door unless necessary and even then only very briefly.
o
26 hours after the start of freezing put the button back to the energy saving
setting (Yellow LED off).
o
Small amounts of food (up to 2 kg) may be frozen directly in the basket
shelves without using the fast freeze setting.
DEFROSTING
To limit energy consumption it is advisable to remove excess frost (3/4 mm) from the inside
and/or the cooling grid at regular intervals.
To do this, never use sharp objects, metal tools, humidifiers, heaters, hairdryers or de- icing
sprays.
This could irreparably damage the cooling circuit and also be dangerous in the case of
equipment running on R600a.
We recommend defrosting the compartment when it's empty or only contains a few articles
of food. To defrost proceed as follows:
• Turn the thermostat to 0;
• Remove the plug from the outlet or switch off at the main switch.
• Take any food out of the low temperature compartment;
• Drain water from the outlet into a basin;
• Remove the water formed during defrosting with a sponge or cloth;
• Dry the walls and/or cooling grid;
• Plug in again and turn the thermostat to the desired setting (see section "Getting to
know your freezer").
