Freezer compartment

Model with separate freezer compartment

The freezer compartment allows for the storage of frozen food (for the period indicated on the

packaging) and the freezing of fresh food. The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours is

written on the rating plate. Arrange the fresh food in the freezing area inside the freezer compartment (see

Quick Guide), leaving enough space around the food packages to allow air to circulate freely. It is

advisable that you do not re-freeze food that has partially defrosted. It is important to wrap the food in a

way that prevents the ingress of water, humidity or condensation.

Making ice cubes

Fill 2/3 of the ice tray (if available) with water and put it back in the freezer compartment. Do not use

sharp or pointed objects to remove the ice under any circumstances.

Removing the drawers (depending on the model)

Pull the drawers outwards as far as they will go, lift them up and remove them. To get more volume, the

freezer compartment can be used without the drawers.

Make sure that the door is closed properly after putting the food back on the grilles/shelves.

Models with an internal product compartment

In the freezer compartment you can also freeze fresh food.

The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours is written

on the rating plate.

How to freeze fresh food:

• arrange the food on the grille, if present (figure 1), or directly on the

bottom of the compartment (figure 2)

• put the food in the middle of the compartment without it

coming into contact with food that is already frozen, keeping a

distance of about 20 mm (figure 1 and 2).

For frost free models it is not necessary to carry out any defrosting procedures.

For other models, the build up of frost is a normal occurrence.

The quantity and speed of frost accumulation varies depending on the ambient conditions and how often

the door is opened. It is advisable to set the temperature colder or, if available, turn on the quick freeze

function (see Quick Guide) four hours before removing the food from the freezer compartment, to prolong

the preservation of the food during the defrosting phase. To defrost, turn the appliance off and remove the

drawers. Put the frozen food in a cool place. 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.

Clean the inside of the freezer compartment and dry it carefully.

Turn the appliance back on and put the food back inside.
