FREEZER COMPARTMENT
Freezing fresh food
1. It is advisable to set the temperature colder or turn on the Fast Freeze/
Fast Cool* at least four hours before removing the food from the freezer compartment, to prolong the preservation of the food during the defrosting phase.
2. To defrost, unplug the appliance and remove the drawers. Leave the door open to allow the frost to melt. To prevent the water from escaping during the defrost, it is advised that you place an absorbent cloth on the bottom of the freezer compartment and wring it out regularly.
3. Clean the inside of the freezer compartment and dry it carefully.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The drawers, baskets and shelves should be kept in their current position unless otherwise specified in this quick guide. The light system inside the refrigerator compartment uses LED lights, allowing for better lighting than with traditional light bulbs, as well as for very low energy consumption.
* Available only on certain models
4. Turn the appliance back on and put the food back inside. To remove the frost on the STOP FROST* accessory, follow the CLEANING.
Ice cubes*
Fill 2/3 of the ice tray with water and put it back in the freezer compartment. Do not, under any circumstances, use sharp or pointed objects to remove the ice.
The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in a specific time period is indicated on the rating plate.
Load limits are determined by baskets, flaps, drawers, shelves etc. Make sure that these components can still close easily after loading.
Doors and lids of the refrigeration appliance should be removed before disposal in the landfill, to avoid children or animals getting trapped inside.
