    To freeze fresh food activate the FastFreeze function at least 24 hours before placing the food to complete prefreezing.
    1. Activate the FastFreeze function by pressing the FastFreeze.
    5. DAILY USE
    5.1 Freezing fresh food
    The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
    To freeze fresh food it is not necessary to change the present setting.
    To freeze fresh food activate the FastFreeze function at least 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
    Store the fresh food evenly distributed in the first and second compartment or drawer from the top.
    The maximum amount of food that can be frozen without adding other fresh food during 24 hours is specified on the rating plate (a label located inside the appliance).
    When the freezing process is complete, return to the required temperature (see “FastFreeze Function”).
    For more information refer to “Hints for freezing”.

The sound can be switched off by pressing the alarm reset button. When normal conditions are restored the alarm light stops flashing and the sound turns off automatically.
    5.2 Storage of frozen food
    When activating an appliance for the first time or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance run at least 3 hours with the FastFreeze function switched on. The freezer drawers ensure that it is quick and easy to find the food package you want. If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers, except for the bottom drawer which needs to be in place to provide good air circulation. Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from the door.

    ENGLISH 11

    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. Refer to “High temperature alarm”.

    5.3 Thawing
    Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being consumed, can be thawed in the refrigerator or inside a plastic bag under cold water.
    This operation depends on the time available and on the type of food. Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen.

    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 FastFreeze function at least 24 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 freezer compartment where there is no frozen food. · 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

    .

    · The medium temperature setting

    ensures good preservation of frozen

    food products.

    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.
