MOVABLE SHELVES
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.
Do not move the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer to ensure correct air
circulation.
VEGETABLE DRAWERS
There are special drawers in the bottom part of the
appliance suitable for storage of fruits and
vegetables.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing
fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food
for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the FastFreeze
function at least 24 hours before placing the food
to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
Store the fresh food evenly distributed in the first
compartment or drawer from the top.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen
without adding other fresh food during 24 hours is
specified on the rating plate (a label located inside
the appliance).
When the freezing process is complete, the
appliance automatically returns to the previous
temperature setting (see "FastFreeze Function").
STORAGE OF FROZEN FOOD
When activating an appliance for the first time or
after a period out of use, before putting the
products in the compartment let the appliance run
at least 3 hours with the FastFreeze function
switched on.
The freezer drawers ensure that it is quick and easy
to find the food package you want. If large
quantities of food are to be stored, remove all
drawers, except for the bottom drawer which needs
to be in place to provide good air circulation.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from the door.
CAUTION! In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to a power
failure, if the power has been off for
longer than the value shown on rating
plate under "rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately then cooled and
then re-frozen. Refer to "High
temperature alarm".
THAWING
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
consumed, can be thawed in the refrigerator or
inside a plastic bag under cold water.
This operation depends on the time available and
on the type of food. Small pieces may even be
cooked still frozen.
