Advice for food conservation
The freezer is intended to keep the frozen
food for a long time, as well as to freeze fresh
food.
One of the main elements for a successful
food freezing is the packing.
The main conditions that the packing must
fulfill are the following: to be airtight, to be
inert towards the packed food, to resist to low
temperatures, to be proof to liquids, grease,
water vapours, smells, to be able to be
washed.
These conditions are fulfilled by the following
types of packings: plastic or aluminium film,
plastic and aliminium vessels, waxed
cardboard glasses or plastic glasses.
Fluids can leak from foods placed in your
freezer without wrapping or with damaged
wrapping. The leaking fluids can corrode
your freezer's metal surfaces, warp its plastic
surfaces, and lose its hygiene conditions
(leading to odour and bacterial formation).
Therefore, store your food completely sealed
with the types of wrapping recommended in
your freezer's user manual.
To avoid damaging your freezer and its metal
surfaces, store acidic foods (peeled fruit,
tomatoes, citrus fruits, etc.) and salted foods
(smoke meat, salted fish, salted cheeses,
home-cooked meals, etc.) in containers or
wrapping materials suitable for freezer use.
I M P O R T A N T !
- For freezing the fresh food please use the
supplied baskets of the appliance.
- Do not place into the freezer a too large
quantity of food at a time. The quality of the
food is best kept if they are deeply frozen as
quickly as possible. This is why it is advisable
not to exceed the freezing capacity of the
appliance specified in the " Product Fiche".
- The fresh food must not come into contact
with the food already frozen.
- The frozen food you have bought can be
placed into the freezer without having to
adjust the thermostat.
- If the freezing date is not mentioned on the
packing, please take into consideration a
period of max. 3 months, as a general guide.
- The food, even partially defrosted, cannot
be frozen again, it must be consumed
immediately or cooked and then refrozen.
- The fizzy drinks will not be kept in the
freezer.
- In case of a power failure, do not open the
door of the appliance. The frozen food will
not be affected if the failure lasts less than 30
hours.
Freezing with Superfrost
• Place the knob to super frost position. The
Superfrost lamp comes on.
• Wait 24 hours.
• Place the fresh food in the freezer. In order
to achieve fast freezing, food should be in
contact with the interior walls when it is placed
in the freezer.
• The Superfrost facility automatically switches
the fast freezing procedure off after 50 hours.
Important
When you place the knob in MAX position,
the compressor might not switch on for a few
minutes.
This is due to the integrated rise-delay switch
which is designed to increase the life span of
the refrigeration unit.
You should not switch the thermostat to
MAX :
- when placing frozen food in the freezer;
- when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food
daily.
