Vegetable drawer

There is a special drawer in the bottom part
of the appliance suitable for storage of fruits
and vegetables.

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 Fast
Freezing function at least 24 hours before
placing the food to be frozen in the freezer
compartment.
Store the fresh food evenly distributed in all
compartments or drawers.
The maximum amount of food that can be
frozen without adding other fresh food
during 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate (a label located inside the appliance).
When the freezing process is complete, the
appliance automatically returns to the
previous temperature setting (see "Fast
Freezing Function").
In this condition, the temperature
inside the refrigerator might
change slightly.
For more information refer to "Hints for
freezing".

Storage of frozen food

When activating an appliance for the first
time or after a period out of use, before
putting the products in the compartment let
the appliance run at least 3 hours with the
Fast Freezing function switched on.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from
the door.
Caution! In the event of
accidental defrosting, for example
due to a power failure, if the
power has been off for longer
than the value shown on rating
plate under "rising time", the
defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately then cooled and
then re-frozen.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
consumed, can be thawed in the refrigerator
or inside a plastic bag under cold water.
This operation depends on the time available
and on the type of food. Small pieces may
even be cooked still frozen.
