Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance
Tips on Freezing
- Remember that you should never refreeze products you have
allowed to thaw, even if only partially. Once thawed, cook
the food, then either eat (within 24 hours) or refreeze it.
- Consult a specialized manual when packaging foods for
freezing.
- For the best storage and thawing, remember to freeze small
portions. This will ensure rapid and uniform freezing. Mark
the package with a description of the contents and the date
it was frozen.
- Freeze only the quantities (in kg) shown on the data plate
on the inside of the freezer.
- Set the temperature to the SUPER setting using the F but-
ton (the E LED will come on).
- Place the fresh food that is being frozen into the top com-
partments (H), making sure not to place them near food
that has already been frozen, but preferably in contact with
the cooling surfaces. In fact, proper food storage depends
on the speed at which the fresh food is frozen. For this rea-
son, we suggest that the temperature knob be placed on
the SUPER setting 24 hours before fresh food is placed in
the appliance to be frozen.
- After 24 hours have passed the temperature setting will
automatically return to the normal operating setting.
- In the case of power failure or breakdown, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside
the freezer.
- Do not place full bottles in the freezer because liquids in-
crease in volume when they freeze and this could cause the
bottles to burst.
- Fill the ice cube trays three-quarters of the way full.
Storage
For best storage and low energy consumption, it is recom-
mended that the temperature be set to -18, -21.
Follow the instructions on the packages of frozen foods scru-
pulously.
When purchasing frozen foods, make sure that they have
been stored at the proper temperature and that the pack-
age is properly sealed. When purchasing frozen foods, it is
best to transport them in appropriate containers to keep
them cold and then place them in the freezer immediately.
To maximize the freezer volume, it is possible to remove the
drawers (except the lowest one), and to arrange the food
directly on top of the evaporating plates. Ensure that the
door is properly closed after putting food in the freezer.
In order to check that the temperature within the appliance
is appropriate (after holidays or extended time away from
the home), the unit is equipped with an intelligent monitor-
ing device that signals when the temperature begins to rise
within the unit (due to power outages or the like). This is
signalled by all of the LEDs blinking and the alarm buzzer
sounding. If this occurs, the food within the freezer has not
been stored properly and should not be consumed.

Food Storage Calendar
"A" Tab
This records what type of fro-
zen food is stored in the
compartment (e.g. cold cuts,
fruit, chicken, wild game,
etc.)
"B" Tab
When the frozen food is
placed in the compartment,
this tab should be moved to
the number of the deadline
month for consuming the
food. For example, mush-
rooms placed in the freezer
in the month of October
should be consumed within
6 months. Therefore, the tab
should be set to April for the
following year.
This small drawer (Fig. 1) was devised for you to store the
ice trays.
It should also be used to store any eutectic plates (only
available on certain models), which increase food preserva-
tion times in the event of a power failure.
