the compartment let the appliance run at
least 24 hours on the higher settings.
You can remove the basket
to get more storage space.
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
in the technical
characteristics chart under
"rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed
quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).

8. HINTS AND TIPS

8.1 Hints for energy saving

• The internal configuration of the
appliance is the one that ensures the
most efficient use of energy.
• Do not open the lid frequently or leave
it open longer than necessary.
• The colder the temperature setting,
the higher the energy consumption.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not
cover the ventilation grilles or holes.

8.2 Hints for freezing

• Activate SUPER function at least 24
hours before placing the food inside
the freezer compartment.
• Before freezing wrap and seal fresh
food in: aluminium foil, plastic film or
bags, airtight containers with lid.
• For more efficient freezing and
thawing divide food into small
portions.
• It is recommended to put labels and
dates on all your frozen food. This will
help to identify foods and to know
when they should be used before their
deterioration.
• The food should be fresh when being
frozen to preserve good quality.
Especially fruits and vegetables
should be frozen after the harvest to
preserve all of their nutrients.
7.3 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to
being used, can be thawed in the
refrigerator 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.
• Do not freeze bottles or cans with
liquids, in particular drinks containing
carbon dioxide - they may explode
during freezing.
• Do not put hot food in the freezer
compartment. Cool it down at room
temperature before placing it inside
the compartment.
• To avoid increase in temperature of
already frozen food, do not place
fresh unfrozen food directly next to it.
Place food at room temperature in the
part of the freezer compartment
where there is no frozen food.
• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice
lollies immediately after taking them
out of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.
• Do not re-freeze defrosted food. If the
food has defrosted, cook it, cool it
down and then freeze it.
8.3 Hints for storage of frozen
food
• Freezer compartment is the one
marked with
• Good temperature setting that
ensures preservation of frozen food
products is a temperature less than or
equal to -18°C.
Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf
life.
