Fast-freezing

For fast-freezing, push the fast freeze switch (D). The

fast freeze light (C) will then light up.

The fast-freezing function accelerates the freezing

of fresh food and, at the same time, protects

foodstuffs already stored from undesirable warming.

If this function is not ended manually, the appliance

switches off the fast-freezing function after 52 hours.

The yellow light goes out.

This function can be ended manually at any time by

pressing the fast freeze switch again. The yellow light

goes out.

Frozen food storage

When first starting-up or after a period out of use,

before putting the products in the compartment let

the appliance run for at least two hours on the

coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the

normal operating position.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the

manufacturer.

Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it

open longer than is absolutely necessary.

Warning

Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in

the freezer compartment.

Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin

burns.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands

are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or

“frost/freezer burns”.

Thawing

Frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in

the fridge or at room temperature depending on the

time available. Small food items may even be cooked

from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer.

Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally

should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown

away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has

not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and

then refrozen.

Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the

refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat

can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must

ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.

Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling

water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in

the oven in their aluminium wrapping.

A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing

any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the

oven instructions, particularly regarding the

placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in

the oven.

Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment is suitable for long term

storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing

fresh food.

To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to move the

thermostat knob from the normal setting. Push the

fast freeze switch at least 3 hours before loading

food.

In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 4 kg of fresh

food.

Place the food to be frozen in the lower section of

the freezer compartment as this is the coldest part.

To guarantee a good operation of the appliance

during normal use, the drawers should not be

removed.

Making ice cubes

The appliance is provided with one or more trays for

ice-cubes trays.

Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand

and place them in the freezer compartment.

To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight

twist.

Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove

the trays from the freezer.

Important

In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will

not be affected if the power cut is short and if the

freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food

begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must

not be re-frozen .
