Using the freezer to its full potential
• The freezer internal temperature should be -18°C or
colder. The mid position (i-care) is usually suitable
but the exact position will depend on appliance
location, food loading and number of door openings.
If necessary, use the FREEZER OPERATION knob
(see Description) to adjust the temperature.
• 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 frozen. Fresh food
must be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE
compartment where the temperature drops below -18°C
and guarantees rapid freezing.
! to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the
freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct
the ventilation holes with food or containers.
• 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 data plate located inside
one of the compartments. For example kg/24h: 4
• To freeze (if the freezer is already operating):
press the rapid freezing SUPER FREEZE button
(corresponding yellow indicator light illuminates), insert
the food and close the door. The function is disabled
automatically after 24 hours or when optimal
temperatures have been reached (indicator light goes
out);
! 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.
