MULTIFLOW operates only when the door is
closed.
Do not block the air vents to allow better
cooling.
Do not remove the MULTIFLOW panel.
Do not use water spray or steam to clean
the appliance. For cleaning instructions,
refer to the "Care and cleaning" chapter.
5.9 CleanAir+ filter
In the appliance, there is a CleanAir+ carbon
filter.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odours in the fridge compartment, improving
the storage quality.
On delivery, the filter and its plastic housing
are in a plastic bag with the other accessories
(refer to "Installing and replacing the CleanAir
+ filter" section in "Care and cleaning"
chapter for the installation).
5.10 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 Extra
Freeze function at least 4 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 returns to the previously set
temperature. Refer to "Extra Freeze function".
For more information refer to the "Hints for
freezing" section.
5.11 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 Extra Freeze
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 and place the food on the
shelves. Leave the bottom drawer in place to
ensure good air circulation.
Keep the food on the shelves 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".
5.12 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
compartment 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.
