Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process,
here are some important hints:
•
the maximum quantity of food which can be
frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
•
the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further
food to be frozen should be added during this
period;
•
only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned, foodstuffs;
•
prepare food in small portions to enable it to be
rapidly and completely frozen and to make it
possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity
required;
•
wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene
and make sure that the packages are airtight;
•
do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food
which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter;
•
lean foods store better and longer than fatty
ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
•
water ices, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
MAINTENANCE
Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore

Periodic cleaning
Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of
soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance with a
brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operstion will
improve the performance of the appliance and save
electricity consumption.
•
it is advisable to show the freezing-in date on
each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of
the storage time;
•
on the inner door or special card (if supplied) you
will find sketches of various animals and food
types together with the recommended storage
time (in months) from the time of freezing;
•
do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks,
etc.) in the freezer compartment as they may
burst.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
you should:
•
make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
•
be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred
from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest
possible time;
•
not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than absolutely necessary.
•
Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and
cannot be refrozen.
•
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by
the food manufacturer.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
take the following precautions:
remove the plug from the wall socket;
