Using the freezer to its full potential
For the preparation of food to be frozen, please consult a
specialized manual.
-Don
't open the freezing compartment door in case of
power failure or unintentional defrosting when the refrig-
erator is switched off. It will help to keep low tem-
peratures in the freezing compartment for a longer time.
-Use foodstuffs which are partly defrosted to cook a dish
by thermal treatment.
– When freezingfreshfoods,rememberthatthey should not
touch other previously frozen or deep frozen foods. Place
the food that you wish to freeze in the top compartment
where the temperature will fall below -18°C, which is ide-
al for freezing food properly. Remember that proper
conservation depends on the speed of freezing.
– During the freezing process, avoid opening the door of
the freezer.
– Freeze only the quantities (in kg) shown on the data
plate situated inside the refrigerator compartment.
– For the best conservation and defrosting, remember to
freeze small portions; this will ensure rapid and uniform
freezing. Mark package with a description of the contents
and the date it was frozen. In the case of power failure or
breakdown, do not open the freezer door. This will help
maintain the temperature inside the freezer ensuring that
foods are conserved for at least 17 hours.
– Do not store full bottles in the freezer since they could
explode when they freeze. (Remember that liquids
increase in volume when frozen.)
– If the room temperature remains below 14°C for an
extended period of time the freezer will not reach the
temperatures required for storage, and storage life will
be shorter. In this case, frozen foodstuffs should be used
within a relatively short period of time.
In order to freeze and then thaw foods optimally, it is
recommended that you divide food into small portions
so that they freeze quickly and uniformly. The packages
should be clearly marked with the content and the date
they were frozen.
Super Mode:
this mode assures continuous compressor
operation up to achievement of low temperatures,
necessary for quick food freezing. After food freezing, the
appliance should be switched over to a normal operation
mode.
In order to frost some quantity of fresh produce/food
(no more than half of the maximum pointed out on the
doorplate/ name board inside your refrigerator), put the
produce in the evaporator/freezing section (* ***)
and switch on mode of operation
«Super»
for 24 hours.
In order to frost maximum (for your refrigerator) quantity
of fresh produce you should switch on mode of operation
«Super»
24 hours before produce laying. Put the produce
in the evaporator/freezing section (* ***) and switch off
mode of operation
«Super»
in 24 hours.

The Full No Frost system circulates cold air continuously
to collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation.
The system maintains an optimal humidity level in the
compartment, preserving the original quality of the food,
preventing the food from sticking together and making
defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration
cells by placing food or containers in direct contact with
the refrigerating back panel.
Please follow our instructions carefully on maximum
storage time: any food, even the freshest, will not remain
edible for any extended amount of time.
– Do not place liquids in containers without covering
them because this will lead to an increase in the level of
moisture within the refrigerator, causing the formation of
frost.
– Remember to cool hot food before storing otherwise the
temperature inside the appliance will increase, causing
the compressor to work harder and use more energy.
– Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods are not stored
any longer than raw food.
– The refrigerator compartment is equipped with
convenient, removable shelves which can be adjusted for
height using the shelf guides. This allows you to place
even large containers and foodstuffs in the refrigerator.
– Be careful not to place containers (plastic or glass), food
or other objects in direct contact with the cooling area of
the back wall of the refrigerator. This could harm the food,
increase energy consumption and facilitate the formation
of condensate (on food, containers, etc.).
