HOW TO OPERATE THE FREEZER

COMPARTMENT

Freezing fresh food

You can use the freezer compartment

to freeze food.

The amount of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours, at an

ambient temperature of +25°C, is indicated on the data plate.

How to proceed:

Turn the thermostat

(5)

to position 2-3.

If the appliance is provided with a freeze button

(4)

, press it

(yellow LED lights up).

This operation allows to reach the maximum freezing

capacity stated on the rating plate and prevents the

temperature inside the refrigerator compartment from

decreasing excessively during the freezing process.

Wrap and seal the food in: aluminium foil, cling film,

watertight plastic bags, polythene containers with lids or

special freezer containers.

Place food in the top compartment, leaving enough space

for air to circulate around packs. To speed up the freezing

process and increase the compartment capacity remove the

top basket and the ice pack storage drawer (if provided).

Put the already frozen food into the other drawers and the

food still to be frozen directly onto the refrigerator grid.

Fresh food will be completely frozen after 24 hours.

Press the freeze button

(4)

again to deactivate the function.

Note:



In the event of a power failure, the freezer compartment

maintains the correct storage temperature as indicated on the

attached sheet.



In models with one or two ice packs: This temperature can be

maintained for about 25/30 hours.



Do not open the freezer compartment door during a power

failure.

Important:

The table alongside shows the recommended maximum

storage time for frozen fresh foods.

When purchasing frozen food products:



Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen food in

damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package is

swollen or has damp patches, it may not have been stored

under optimal conditions and defrosting may have already

begun.



When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and

transport the products in a thermally insulated cool bag.



Place the items in the freezer compartment as soon as you

get home.



If food has defrosted even partially, do not re-freeze it.

Consume within 24 hours.

Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum.

Respect the best-before date on the package.



Always observe the storage information on the package.
