Fagor FA3722X Mode D'emploi page 60

The amount of food to be frozen at once must not exceed the freezing power indicated on the
specifications plate.
Ensure that your food to be frozen is in good conditions.
Observe the best-by date.
To prevent the food from drying out, wrap it in aluminium foil or plastic film.
Do not put food to be frozen in contact with food already frozen.
Never refreeze thawed food.
Freeze in daily servings.
Do not store bottles with carbonated drinks or glass bottles containing liquids in the freezer. They
may burst.
Do not eat very cold ice-cream or food: this may burn the mouth.
Label the wrapping, indicating the content and the freezing date.
For maximum freezing capacity, we recommend that you remove the central basket and place the
food on the freezer shelf.
For maximum volume, we suggest that you remove the ice tray.
For best energy yield, keep the ice-cube holder full, along with the ice holder on the upper basket
tray.
ICE-MAKING:
DEFROSTING
REFRIGERATOR:
The refrigerator's defrosting system is automatic, no manual defrosting is required.
The refrigerator back wall is usually covered in small drops of water, or ice. This is completely
NORMAL and is part of the automatic defrosting process.
These drops are collected in a container over the motor and are evaporated by the heat of the
motor.
FREEZER:
With the passage of time, a layer of frost or ice forms on the freezer walls. If this is excessive, it
will cause your refrigerator to consume more energy. We recommend that this layer of ice be
removed at least twice yearly.
No-Frost refrigerators do not produce this layer of frost or ice and so manual operation is required.
Defrosting must be done as quickly as possible; if the temperature of the food rises, the period of
conservation is reduced.
FREEZER:
Fill the trays in the freezer up to three quarters, with water.
Place the trays in the freezer.
Once the water has frozen, the cubes can be removed by twisting the tray
slightly. Store the cubes in the ice compartment.
