Daily Use
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate. The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be
frozen.
Storing Frozen Food
When first starting-up or after the appliance has not been used for a long period of time,
before putting the product in the compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the
highest settings.
Important!
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the power has been off for
longer than 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
cooked).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the fridge 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.
