Once the food is completely frozen (which could take

up to 24 hours) return the fast freeze switch to the

ÇNÈ position; the yellow light (D) goes off.

Distribute the frozen food packages in the other

compartments, so that the top compartments can be

used for a further freezing operation.

The food to be frozen must be fresh and of the

best quality.

Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is

already frozen.

During the freezing process, ensure that the

freezer door remains closed.

Frozen food storage

When you first start the freezer or if the freezer has

been out of use for some time, we advise you to run

your appliance for at least two hours in the Çfast

freezeÈ mode before storing frozen food.

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.

Important

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

the freezer compartment.

Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer, can possibly result in a low

temperature skin burn.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands

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

Òfrost/freezer burnsÓ.

Important

In the event of a power cut do not open the door.

The food in the freezer will not be affected if the

power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Should

the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly

and must not be re-frozen.

Thawing

Deep frozen or 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.

Making ice cubes

The appliance is provided with one or more trays for

the production of ice-cubes.

Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and

place them in one of the freezer compartment.

Do not use sharp instruments to remove the trays

from the freezer.

To remove the cubes twist the tray slightly or hold it

under running water for a few seconds.

Normal Operating Sounds

You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds

when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils

or tubing at the rear, to the cooling

plate/evaporator or to the fixed freezer shelves.

When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is

being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring

sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.

A thermostat controls the compressor, and you

will hear a faint ÕclickÕ when the thermostat cuts in

and out.
