Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freez-
ing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-
frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the Fast Freezing
function at least 24 hours before placing the
food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the top
compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be fro-
zen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate,
a label located on the inside of the fridge.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during
this period do not add other food to be frozen.
After 24 hours, when the freezing process is
completed, deactivate the Fast Freezing func-
tion (see "Fast Freezing function").
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator com-
partment 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.

shelves from the freezer
Some of the freezing baskets have a limit stop
to prevent their accidental removal or falling

front of the basket to insert it into the freezer.
Once you are over the end points, push the
