Using the freezer to its full potential

The Cool Care Zone is a special compartment inside the freezer which allows the user to select any of the 4 different operating modes in accordance with specific requirements and the type of food stored inside. The temperature values that may be selected are -8°C, - 12°C, -18°C; these values are indicated by the icons on the display. The Cool Care Zone is equipped with controls that may be operated independently from the other compartments inside the freezer; the Cool Care Zone may also be deactivated using the display, so that it can then be used as a normal freezer compartment.

Adjust the temperature using the display.

The Cool Care Zone is a compartment that allows several types of food to be frozen at the most suitable temperature (fruit, ice cream and alcoholic drinks); the other two storage compartments (see overall view) are designed to store frozen foods under normal conditions.To freeze foods in safely and correctly, follow the instructions below.

For a small quantity (less than half of the maximum amount shown on the data plate):

-if the Cool Care Zone is activated, place the food in the two storage compartments, making sure that it does not come into contact with any food that has already been frozen; press the rapid-freezing SUPER FREEZE button (the corresponding LED lights up) and close the door. The function deactivates automatically after 24 hours or when the inside of the compartment has reached the optimal temperature (the LED switches off).

Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been defrosted.

Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could break.

The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4).

In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the freezer compartment, you may remove the bins (except the lowest bin and the special COOL CARE ZONE bin, which has an adjustable temperature) and place the food directly onto the evaporator plates.

!Do not open the door during freezing.

!If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.
