remove all drawers, except for the bottom
drawer which needs to be in place to provide
good air circulation.
Keep the food on the shelves no closer than
15 mm from the door.
CAUTION!
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 on rating plate under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked immediately
then cooled and then re-frozen.
5.13 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
6. HINTS AND TIPS
6.1 Hints for energy saving
• Freezer: The internal configuration of the
appliance is the one that ensures the most
efficient use of energy.
• Fridge: Most efficient use of energy is
ensured in the configuration with the
drawers in the bottom part of the
appliance and shelves evenly distributed.
Position of the door bins does not affect
energy consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than necessary.
• Freezer: The colder the temperature
setting, the higher the energy
consumption.
• Fridge: Do not set too high temperature to
save energy unless it is required by the
characteristics of the food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the
temperature control is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice
formation on the evaporator. In this case,
set the temperature control toward higher
temperature to allow automatic defrosting
and to save energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover
the ventilation grilles or holes.

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.
5.14 Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more
trays for the production of ice-cubes.
Do not use metallic instruments to
remove the trays from the freezer.
1. Fill these trays with water.
2. Put the ice trays in the freezer
compartment.
• Make sure that food products inside the
appliance allow air circulation through
dedicated holes in the rear interior of the
appliance.
6.2 Hints for freezing
• Activate Extra Freeze function at least 4
hours before placing the food inside the
freezer compartment.
• Before freezing wrap and seal fresh food
in: aluminium foil, plastic film or bags,
airtight containers with lid.
• For more efficient freezing and thawing
divide food into small portions.
• It is recommended to put labels and dates
on all your frozen food. This will help to
identify foods and to know when they
should be used before their deterioration.
• The food should be fresh when being
frozen to preserve good quality. Especially
fruits and vegetables should be frozen
after the harvest to preserve all of their
nutrients.
• Do not freeze bottles or cans with liquids,
in particular drinks containing carbon
dioxide - they may explode during
freezing.
• Do not put hot food in the freezer
compartment. Cool it down at room
