First use

Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the
interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water
and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical
smell of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.

Daily use

Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh
food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long
time.
To freeze fresh food activate the Fast Freeze function
at least 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen in
the freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the two top com-
partments.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24
hours is specified on the rating plate, a label located
on the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period
do not add other food to be frozen.
After 24 hours, when the freezing process is completed,
return to the required temperature (see "Temperature
regulation").
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, be-
fore putting the products in the compartment let the ap-
pliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
Important! 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).

Frozen Food Calendar
The symbols show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the
appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper
or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid de-
pends on the quality of the foods and treating before
freezing.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be
thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room tem-
perature, depending on the time available for this oper-
ation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly
from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.
