It is recognisable by aeration cells located on the back
walls of the compartments.
The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to
collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation.
The system maintains an optimal humidity level in the
compartment, preserving the original quality of the
food, preventing the food from sticking together and
making defrosting a thing of the past.
Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or
containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back
panel.
Close bottles and wrap food tightly.
Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment,
not hot foods (
see Precautions and tips
).
Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw
foods.

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