How to use the freezer compartment...

For the preparation of food to be frozen, please consult a specialized manual.

Food that has be thawed, even partially, must not be re- frozen: you must cook it in order to consume it (within 24 hours) or to freeze it once again.

When freezing fresh foods, remember that they should not touch other previously frozen or deep frozen foods. Place the food that you wish to freeze in the top compartment "I" where the temperature will fall below -18°C, which is ideal for freezing food properly. Remember that proper con- servation depends on the speed of freezing.

The maximum amount of food you can freeze per day is indicated on the data plate situated inside the refrigerator compartment.

The first time, or after the freezer has been inactive, you can only freeze food after having let the appliance function at maximum.

When the appliance is already on, freezing can be done in two ways:

1.For small quantities, less than the maximum capacity indicated on the data plate (situated on the lower left, next to the salad crisper), enable the SUPER FREEZE function on the display in the "24 hour" mode and insert the food to be frozen. To enable the function, press the MODE button "C" as many times as necessary for the SUPER FREEZE symbol to start flashing and then press the SELECT "B" button to

enable the

function. After 24 hours, or once the optimal

temperatures have been reached, the rapid freezing function is automatically disabled.

2.For large quantities of food to be frozen (up until the maximum load indicated on the data plate situated on the lower left, next to the salad crisper), enable the SUPER FREEZE function on the display in the "48 hours" mode: To enable the function, press the MODE button "C" as many times as necessary for the SUPER FREEZE symbol to start flashing and then press the SELECT "B" button for more than three seconds to ensure the function is enabled (symbol

starts to flash slowly).

During the freezing process, avoid opening the door of the freezer.

In order to freeze and then thaw foods optimally, it is recom- mended that you divide food into small portions so that they freeze quickly and uniformly. The packages should be clearly marked with the content and the date they were frozen.

In order to obtain a larger amount of space in the freezer compartment, you can remove the central drawer, and place the food directly onto the evaporator plate. Make sure that, after having inserted the food, the door closes correctly.

Do not open the freezer door in the event of a power failure or malfunction. This precaution will slow the rise in tem- perature within the compartment. If the door is not opened, frozen and fast-frozen foods will remain in their current state for approximately 9-14 hours.

Do not place full bottles in the freezer: they could easily burst because all liquids increase in volume when they freeze.

To cool drinks down quickly.

Thanks to the special ICE PARTY function, you will no longer have to accept warm drinks just because you gorgot to put the bottle in the fridge, just put the bottle in the bucket provided and put this into the freezer. Now select this function, the appliance itself will inform you with a buzzer when it is time to remove the bottle from the freezer.

To silence the buzzer, just press the SELECT button "D" you can carry the cool drink to the table easily in the bucket, thanks to special handles and keep it cool at length at the table.

WARNING: always keep the bucket provided for the bottle inside the freezer compartment (even when you don't have bottles to cool); only this way can the low temperature of the liquid be guaranteed in a short amount of time.
