Freezing Fresh Food

Place fresh food to be frozen near the side walls to ensure fast freezing and away from already
frozen food, if possible.
Freezing capacity of your appliance in a 24 hours period is 5 kg (10lb).
Never exceed this maximum capacity. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The
quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the center as quickly as
possible.
Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.

ENERGY SAVING

For better energy saving we suggest:

Installing the appliance away from heat sources and not exposed to direct sunlight and
in a well-ventilated room.

Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the internal temperature
and therefore causing continuous functionalizing of the compressor.

Do not excessively stuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation.

Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to facilitate the transfer of cold.

In case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the refrigerator door
closed.

Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible.

Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures too cold.

Remove dust present on the rear of the appliance.

TAKE CARE

Defrosting

Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed.
Alternatively you may switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. Extract
the water conduit and put in a water container.
6 hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat knob at "MAX" position to make sure the
food is at the lowest temperature when you get it out. All food should be wrapped in several layers
of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder). Remove the freezer basket. Leave the
lid open. Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the
defrosting.
When defrosting has finished flow out defrost water which collects at the bottom of the freezer as
the below diagram and dry the interior thoroughly. Switch on the Fast Freeze and leave it on for
