Daily use
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing
fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen
food for a long time.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to
change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation, turn the
temperature regulator toward higher settings to
obtain the maximum coldness.
Important! In this condition, the refrigerator
compartment temperature might drop below
0°C. If this occurs reset the temperature
regulator to a warmer setting.
Place the fresh food to be frozen on the top
compartment.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of
use, before putting the products in the compart-
ment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on
the higher settings.
Important! In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer than the value
shown in the technical characteristics chart
under "rising time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked immediately and
then re-frozen (after cooling).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used,
can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment
or at room temperature, depending on the time
available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,
directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking
will take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more
trays for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these
trays with water, then put them in the freezer
compartment.
Important! Do not use metallic instruments to
remove the trays from the freezer.
