Thawing-out frozen foods

Frozen foods must be allowed to thaw out before use

either in the refrigerator (meat, poultry, ﬁsh, etc.) or at

room temperature (all other foods) according to the

available time.

Frozen products which come in small-sized or

separate packages may be cooked directly without

thawing; obviously, in this case, the cooking time will

last a little longer.

This appliance is equipped with trays for the

production of ice-cubes.

Fill these trays with water to 3/4 of their height, then

put them in the freezer.

The ice-cubes may be shaken out from the trays by

simply twisting; do not use metallic instruments to

remove the trays from the freezer.

Frost should be removed with the special plastic

scraper provided, whenever the thickness exceeds

4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to cut-

off the power or to remove the food from the freezer.

Do not use a mechanical device or any artiﬁcial

means to speed up the thawing process other than

those recommended by the manufacturer.

If a thick layer of ice is formed it will be necessary to

carry out complete defrosting as following:

set the knob (E) to « O » position or unplug the

appliance from the mains socket;

wrap frozen food in several layers of newspaper and

place the food packages in a cool place;

leave the door open. Introduce the plastic scraper in

Fig. 8

the appropriate seating at the bottom center, as shown

in ﬁgure, place underneath a basin to collect the

defrost water.

When defrosting is completed dry the interior

thoroughly.

Keep the scraper for future use.

Turn the thermostat knob (E) to the desired position

or replace the plug in the socket. After letting the

appliance to run for two or three hours on the quick-

freeze setting, it is ready again for storing frozen

food.
