Before using the appliance for the first
time, the interior and all internal
accessories should be washed with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap
to remove the typical smell of a brand- new product, then dried thoroughly.CAUTION!
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these
will damage the finish.5.  DAILY USEWARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.5.1  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
FROSTMATIC 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 compartments.
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.
When the freezing process is completed, return to the required temperature (see
"FROSTMATIC Function").
5.2  Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance runat least 2 hours with the FROSTMATIC
function turned on.
If large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers from
appliance and place food on glass shelf
to obtain the best performance.
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due
to a power failure, if the
power has been off for
longer that the value shown
in the technical data chart
under "Rising time", the
defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).5.3  Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to
being used, can be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment 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.
5.4  Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or
more trays for the production of ice-cubes.
Do not use metallic
instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.
1. Fill these trays with water
2. Put the ice trays in the freezer
compartment.

							5.5 Cold accumulators
The freezer contains at least one cold accumulator which increases storage
time in the event of a power cut or
breakdown.This shall be placed on top of the frozen
food in the front part.6.  HINTS AND TIPS6.1  Normal operating sounds
The following sounds are normal during operation:
• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound from coils sound when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A whirring and pulsating sound from the compressor when refrigerant ispumped.
• A sudden cracking noise from inside appliance caused by thermic
dilatation (a natural and not
dangerous physical phenomenon).
• A faint click noise from the temperature regulator when the
compressor switches on or off.6.2  Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutelynecessary.
• If foreseen, do not remove the cold accumulators from the freezer basket.
6.3  Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the
freezing process, here are some
important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on
the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should
be added during this period;
• freeze only top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely
frozen and to make it possible
subsequently to thaw only the
quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the
packages are airtight;
• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen,
thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter;
• lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the
storage life of food;
• water ices, if consumed immediately
after removal from the freezer
compartment, can possibly cause the
skin to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack toenable you to keep tab of the storage
time.6.4  Hints for storage of frozen
food
To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequatelystored by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the
freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary;
• once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen;
• do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.

The freezer compartment is frost free.
This means that there is no build up of
frost when it is in operation, neither on
the internal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the
continuous circulation of cold air inside
the compartment, driven by an
automatically controlled fan.
