In the event of accidental

defrosting, for example due to a

power failure, if the power has

been off for longer that the value

shown in the technical

characteristics chart under "rising

time", the defrosted food must be

consumed quickly or cooked

immediately and then re-frozen

(after cooling).

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being

used, can be thawed in the refrigerator

compartment or at room temperature,

depending on the time available for this

operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still

frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case,

cooking will take longer.

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with two trays

for the production of ice-cubes.

1. Fill the trays with water.

2. Put the trays in the freezer compartment

Caution! Do not use metallic

instruments to remove the tray

from the freezer.

Hints and tips

Normal operating sounds

The following sounds are normal during

operation:

• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound

from coils sound when refrigerant is

pumped.

• A whirring and pulsating sound from the

compressor when refrigerant is pumped.

• A sudden cracking noise from inside

appliance caused by thermic dilatation

(a natural and not dangerous physical

phenomenon).

• A faint click noise from the temperature

regulator when the compressor switches

on or off.

Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or leave

it open longer than absolutely necessary.

• If the ambient temperature is high and

the Temperature Regulator is set to low

temperature and the appliance is fully

loaded, the compressor may run

continuously, causing frost or ice on the

evaporator. If this happens, set the

Temperature Regulator toward warmer

settings to allow automatic defrosting

and so a saving in electricity

consumption.

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing

process, here are some important hints:

• the maximum quantity of food which can

be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the

rating plate;

• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No

further food to be frozen should be

added during this period;

• freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

• prepare food in small portions to enable

it to be rapidly and completely frozen

and to make it possible subsequently to

thaw only the quantity required;

• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or

polythene and make sure that the

packages are airtight;

• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to

touch food which is already frozen, thus

avoiding a rise in temperature of the

latter;
