Internal thermometer
This indicates the internal temperature of the
freezer. It may indicate a temperature above -18¡C
when large quantities of food are placed inside for
freezing or when the door is left open for a long
time.
Blue: normal
Red: alarm
Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen food, and
for freezing fresh food.
To freeze fresh foods turn the fast freezing knob at
least 24 hours before introducing the food into the
freezer in order to ensure better freezing results.
Place the food to be frozen in the compartment as
shown in figure.
In order to freeze the quantity indicated on the rating
plate, arrange the food directly in contact with the
cooling surfaces. If the food is frozen in the baskets,
the maximum quantity freezable is slightly less.
Important
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
characteristics chart under Òrising timeÓ, the
defrosted food must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).
Frozen food storage
When the freezer is being turned on for the first
time, or after a prolonged period of disuse, turn the
N/S knob to the Quick-freezing position and then
wait at least two hours before introducing the food to
be conserved. You may then return the knob to the
ÇNÈ position. This two-hour waiting period may be
avoided if the freezer has already been in operation.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
you should:
if large quantities of food are to be stored, remove
all drawers and baskets from appliance (except for
the last one at the bottom) and place food on cooling
shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed load limit stated
on the side of the upper section (where applicable).
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays
for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with
water, then put them in the freezer compartment.
Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.

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.
Cold accumulator
A cold accumulator is supplied in the freezer; this
increases the length of time for which food will keep
in the event of a power failure or breakdown. It must
be placed in the top drawer.
CONSEILS
Conseils pour la congŽlation
R•gles ˆ respecter pour la congŽlation:
¥ le pouvoir max. de congŽlation par 24 heures
figure sur la plaque signalŽtique;
¥ le processus de congŽlation prend 24 heures. Il
vaut mieux ne pas ajouter d'autres aliments ˆ
congeler pendant ce laps de temps;
¥ les produits destinŽs ˆ la congŽlation doivent •tre
frais, bien nettoyŽs et dÕexcellente qualitŽ;
¥ prŽparez de petites portions, de fa•on ˆ faciliter
la congŽlation et ˆ permettre de ne dŽcongeler
que la quantitŽ nŽcessaire;
¥ enveloppez les denrŽes dans du papier
d'aluminium ou de polyth•ne, en Žliminant les
bulles d'air et en fermant bien les paquets;
¥ Žvitez de placer des produits ˆ congeler en
contact avec des denrŽes dŽjˆ entreposŽes, pour
Žviter d'en Žlever la tempŽrature;
¥ les aliments maigres se conservent mieux et plus
longtemps que les gras; le sel rŽduit la durŽe de
conservation;
¥ ne consommez pas les b‰tonnets glacŽs toute
de suite apr•s les avoir sortis du congŽlateur. La
tempŽrature tr•s basse ˆ laquelle ils se trouvent
peut provoquer des bržlures:
¥ indiquez sur chaque paquet la date de
congŽlation, afin de pouvoir contr™ler le temps
dÕentreposage;
¥ sur la contreporte ou sur la fiche (lorsqu'il y en a
une), il y a des dessins d'animaux et de denrŽes
alimentaires auxquels correspondent des mois
(en chiffres), indiquant le temps de conservation
ˆ partir du moment de la congŽlation;
¥ ne placez ni bouteilles ni bo"tes de boissons
gazeuses dans le congŽlateur, car elles
pourraient Žclater.
Conseils pour la surgŽlation
Comment utiliser ce compartiment au mieux:
¥ vŽrifiez que les aliments aient bien ŽtŽ conservŽs
en magasin;
¥ assurez-vous que le transport, du moment de
l'achat jusqu'ˆ celui de la mise en place dans le
compartiment, dure le moins longtemps possible;
¥ Žvitez dÕouvrir trop souvent la porte et ne la
laissez ouverte que le temps nŽcessaire.
¥ Il convient de faire tr•s attention, car les aliments
dŽgelŽs, ne peuvent •tre recongelŽs.
¥ Ne dŽpassez jamais la date limite dÕutilisation
gŽnŽralement marquŽe sur les paquets.
