Using the freezer to its full potential

GB

•Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature (see Description).

•Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24 hours).

•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).

•The top drawer can be used to store several types of food (semifreddo frozen desserts, ice creams and alcohol) at the most suitable temperature; the lower drawer (see overall view) is designed to store frozen food in normal conditions.

To freeze food (if the freezer is already in operation), deactivate the TVZ and empty the top drawer, press the rapid-freezing SUPER FREEZE button (the corresponding LED lights up), place the food inside and close the drawer. The function is deactivated automatically after 24 hours or when the optimal temperatures have been reached (LED switches off). The food may now be moved to the lower drawer (so that the TVZ functions may be used) or left in the TVZ compartment which, when left inactive, will function as a normal storage compartment.

!to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation holes with food or containers.

!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.

TVZ compartment

The TVZ is a special compartment in the freezer which allows the user to choose between 5 different operating modes that may be set according to specific requirements and the type of food stored inside. The temperature settings available are 0°C, - 6°C, -12°C and -18°C; these options are displayed on the control panel (FREEZER COMPARTMENT knob). The TVZ has an independent control feature; it may also be deactivated using the control panel, for use as a normal freezer compartment.
