Cold Accumulators; Ice-Cube Production; Hints And Tips - Zanussi ZBF22451SA Benutzerinformation

If large quantities of food are to be stored,
remove all drawers and baskets from appliance
and place food on cooling shelves to obtain the
best performance.
WARNING!
Make sure that foods do not exceed
the load limit stated on the side of
the upper section (where applicable)
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 "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-frozen (after
cooling).

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with one or more
trays for the production of ice-cubes.

Hints and tips

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 is pumped.
• 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.
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If foreseen, do not remove the cold
accumulators from the freezer basket.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
20
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.

Cold accumulators

The freezer contains at least one cold
accumulator which increases storage time in
the event of a power cut or breakdown.
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.
• the maximum quantity of food which can be
frozen in 24 hours 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 to enable you to keep
tab of the storage time.
