Zanussi ZFT11112WE, User Manual

• 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;

• lean foods store better and longer than fatty

ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;

• water ices, if consumed immediately after

removal from the freezer compartment, can

possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;

• it is advisable to show the freezing in date on

each individual pack to enable you to keep

tab of the storage time.

Hints for storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this

appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen

foodstuffs were adequately stored by the

retailer;

• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred

from the foodstore to the freezer in the

shortest possible time;

• not open the door frequently or leave it open

longer than absolutely necessary;

• once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly

and cannot be refrozen;

• do not exceed the storage period indicated

by the food manufacturer.
