Using the freezer to its full potential

No-frost freezer cooling system:

This is recognisable by the air ducts on the back wall of the freezer compartment.

The no-frost system circulates cold air to collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. The system prevents food from sticking together and makes defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the air circulation by placing food or containers in direct contact with the rear air ducts.

•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 frozen. Fresh food must be placed in the FREEZER and STORAGE compartment to guarantee rapid freezing.

•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 towards the bottom left of one of the compartments (for example: Kg/24h: 4).

•Follow food packaging instructions about best storage method and maximum storage times.

•Always use the cover on the ice tray.

!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.

!If the room temperature drops below 10°C for an extended period of time, the ideal temperature will not be reached in the freezer compartment and food preservation will be reduced.
