When the freezing process is complete, the appliance automatically returns to the previous temperature setting (see "FastFreeze function"). For more information refer to "Hints for freezing". 5.2 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 FastFreeze function switched on. The freezer drawers ensure that it is quick and easy to find the food package you want. If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers and place the food on shelves. 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. Refer to "High temperature alarm". 5.3 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. 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 This appliance is equipped with cold accumulators which increase storage time in the event of a power cut or breakdown. To ensure the best performance of the accumulators, place them in the front top area of the appliance. 6. HINTS AND TIPS 6.1 Hints for energy saving • The internal configuration of the appliance is the one that ensures the most efficient use of energy. • Do not remove the cold accumulators from the freezer basket. • Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than necessary. • The colder the temperature setting, the higher the energy consumption. • Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover the ventilation grilles or holes. • Make sure that food products inside the appliance allow air circulation through dedicated holes in the rear interior of the appliance. 6.2 Hints for freezing • Activate FastFreeze function at least 24 hours before placing the food inside the freezer compartment. • Before freezing wrap and seal fresh food in: aluminium foil, plastic film or bags, airtight containers with lid. • For more efficient freezing and thawing divide food into small portions. • It is recommended to put labels and dates on all your frozen food. This will help to identify foods and to know when they should be used before their deterioration. • The food should be fresh when being frozen to preserve good quality. Especially fruits and vegetables should be frozen 12 ENGLISH
