6. HINTS AND TIPS
6.1 Hints for energy saving
• The internal configuration of the appliance
is the one that ensures the most efficient
use of energy.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than necessary.
• The colder the temperature setting, the
higher the energy consumption.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover
the ventilation grilles or holes.
6.2 Hints for freezing
• Activate Super Freeze function at least 3
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
temperature before placing it inside the
compartment.
• To avoid increase in temperature of
already frozen food, do not place fresh
unfrozen food directly next to it. Place food
at room temperature in the part of the

• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice
lollies immediately after taking them out of
the freezer. Risk of frostbites.
• Do not re-freeze defrosted food. If the food
has defrosted, cook it, cool it down and
then freeze it.
6.3 Hints for storage of frozen food
• Freezer compartment is the one marked
with .
• Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf life.
• The whole freezer compartment is suitable
for storage of frozen food products.
• Leave enough space around the food to
allow air to circulate freely.
• For adequate storage refer to food
packaging label to see the shelf life of
food.
• It is important to wrap the food in such a
way that prevents water, humidity or
condensation from getting inside.
6.4 Shopping tips
After grocery shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not damaged
- the food could be deteriorated. If the
package is swollen or wet, it might have
not been stored in the optimal conditions
and defrosting may have already started.
• To limit the defrosting process buy frozen
goods at the end of your grocery shopping
and transport them in a thermal and
insulated cool bag.
• Place the frozen foods immediately in the
freezer after coming back from the shop.
