The quantity of food to be frozen must not exceed the quantity indicated on the nameplate.
If the quantity to be frozen is greater than this value, it is always possible to freeze in several
stages.
f
reeZing of fresh produCts
•
Freeze only top quality products after cleaning and preparing them if necessary.
•
Allow the cooked dishes to cool to room temperature before placing them in the freezer
compartment.
•
All products to be frozen must be packed in special freezer bags, "special freezer"
aluminium trays or plastic boxes. These packages must be sealed airtight.
•
Each package must be proportionate to the family consumption size so that it can be used
all at once. Small packages allow for fast and uniform freezing.
•
Remember that a thawed product must be consumed as soon as possible and must never
be refrozen unless it has been cooked in the meantime.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never put bottles or cans in the freezer. They can shatter when their
contents freeze and fizzy drinks may even explode! Do not store lemonade, fruit juice, beer,
sparkling wine, etc. in the freezer.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not put ice cream or ice cubes in your mouth immediately after taking
them out of the freezer compartment. Very cold ice can freeze to your lips or tongue and cause
injury.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never touch frozen food with wet hands. The ice could make them stick
to the food.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never use electrical appliances inside the refrigerator and/or the freezer
(e.g. electric ice-cream makers, mixers, etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The freezer part of the appliance may not operate properly (risk of
defrosting the contents or excessive temperature in the frozen food compartment) when the
appliance is set for an extended period at a lower ambient temperature than the one for which
it is designed.

Aking iCe Cubes
•
To make ice cubes, pour cold water into the ice cube tray until three quarters full, then put
it in the freezer and leave it there for at least 2 hours.
•
To remove the ice cubes, slightly twist the tray or place it under running water for a few
seconds.

eCommendAtions for sAving energy
We recommend that you follow the following tips to save energy:
•
To prevent the refrigerator temperature rising, do not open the door more often than
necessary and never leave it open for long periods.
•
Make sure that the appliance is located away from any heat source (direct sunlight, electric
heating, baking trays, etc.).
•
Never set the temperature lower than necessary.
•
Do not store hot food or liquids that evaporate in the appliance. Hot food and drinks
should be allowed to cool to room temperature before placing them in the appliance.
•
Do not open the door if there is a power cut.
•
Place the appliance in a well-ventilated room without humidity. Please refer to the chapter
on installing the appliance.
•
Follow the recommendations in the illustration showing the correct positioning of the
shelves and other compartments of the appliance. This is the ideal position to save energy.
•
The arrangement of the drawers, bins and shelves presented in the description of the
appliance is designed to ensure that energy is used as efficiently as possible.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always unplug the appliance from the mains before cleaning or defrosting. We recommend
that you regularly clean and disinfect your appliance.
d
efrosting
Refrigerator: It is not necessary to defrost the refrigerator because the ice that accumulates
on the rear refrigeration wall defrosts automatically each time the compressor stops. The frost
melts and water flows through the hole in the rear wall. It is collected in the container above
the compressor where it evaporates.
Freezer: Inside the freezer, the walls are covered with a layer of frost. When the layer is 3 to
5mm thick, you must defrost it. In any case, the freezer compartment must be defrosted at
least once a year.
•
Seal fresh and frozen food in freezer bags and store in a cool location. Make sure that
frozen food does not thaw. Leave the 2 doors open and wipe away the water that flows/
accumulates as it melts.
•
To speed the process up, you can put containers of hot water in the 2 compartments, and,
in this case, close the door.
