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 foods it is not necessary to
change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation,
turn the temperature regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.
Caution! In this condition, the
refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop below
0°C. If this occurs reset the
temperature regulator to a
warmer setting.

on the quality of the foods and treating

Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out
of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least
2 hours on the higher settings.
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 in
the technical characteristics chart
under "rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed quickly
or cooked immediately and then
re-frozen (after cooling).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
compartment or at room temperature,
depending on the time available for this
operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still
frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case,
cooking will take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one tray for
the production of ice-cubes.
1. Fill the tray with water.
2. Put the tray in the freezer compartment
Caution! Do not use metallic
instruments to remove the tray
from the freezer.
