Instructions for the User

The dry ventilation air chills the food more quickly; the NO FROST system ensures that the temperature is kept more constant

6.2.1 Special meat and fish storage compartment

Place the food inside the refrigerator compartment as shown in the drawing

Some delicate foods such as meat, fish and lightly frozen foods can be stored in the special chilled room drawer, in which the temperature is constantly kept at around 0°C.

6.3 Freezing foods

For proper storage and freezing, fruit and vegetables should be packed in portions of not more than 1 kg and meat and fish up to a max. of 2 kg. Small packages of food freeze more quickly, giving better conservation of their nutrients and flavour, even after thawing and preparation. Use only freezer bags, aluminium film, food-approved polyethylene film and freezer containers. Do not use paper bags, non food-approved cellophane bags, shopping bags or used freezer bags. Pack foods in airtight packs and try to expel all the air. If using bags, close the packs with the elastic bands or plastic-coated wire strips provided. Always cool hot foods to room temperature before placing them in the freezer and do not allow frozen foods to touch fresh foods for freezing. Always mark packs with the date of freezing, quantity and type of food and make sure that foods are fresh and in good condition.

The max. amount of fresh foods which can be frozen in a 24-hour period is marked on the nameplate. Do not exceed the stated amount: this reduces the freezer's efficiency and its ability to preserve the frozen foods it already contains.

In case of power failure, the freezer compartment maintains its temperature for around 18 hours.
