Storing ready-frozen food
Warning! When ready-frozen food is placed in the freezer, the temperature inside the
compartment must already have reached –18°C. Check the temperature inside the com-
partment with a thermometer.
Only store ready-frozen foods which are suitably wrapped, to prevent them from drying
out, loosing their flavour or transmitting smells to other foods.
Comply with the storage times and consume before the due dates indicated on the
packs by producers of ready-frozen food.
Tip: If possible place ready-frozen foods in the drawers according to type. Some appli-
ance models have markers which can be affixed to the front of the drawers. Indicate the
type of food stored in a drawer by ticking the corresponding symbol (see section "Food
symbols/date card"). This will make food easier to find and avoid having to have the door
open for too long, with consequent energy savings.
Ice cubes
Fill the tray three quarters full with cold water and place it in one of the drawers.
To remove ice cubes when they are ready, twist the tray of hold it briefly under running
water.
Warning! Do not use sharp or pointed instruments to detach an ice cube tray which has
become stuck. Use a spoon handle or something similar.
Defrosting
Automatic defrosting of the refrigerator compartment.
During normal operation a thin layer of frost forms on the rear wall of the refrigerator com-
partment; this is automatically eliminated during pauses in operation.
The defrost water runs down a channel in the rear of the refrigerator compartment,
through a drain hole and is collected in a basin above the compressor, from which it
evaporates.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
Humidity created during operation of the appliance and when the door is open causes a
layer of frost to form inside the freezer compartment. This should be removed periodically
using the plastic scraper supplied with the appliance. Never use metal tools to scrape off
the frost.
A very thick layer of frost inside the freezer compartment increases energy consumption.
The appliance must therefore be completely defrosted whenever the layer of frost has
reached a thickness of 4 mm, or at least once a year. It is always advisable to perform
defrosting when the appliance is empty or when food stocks are low.
Warning! Do not use electric heaters or other mechanical or artificial means to
speed up the defrosting process, other than those recommended in this booklet.
