2 hours with the FastFreeze function
turned on.
To freeze fresh food place it in the top
compartment.
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.
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 in the technical
characteristics chart under
"rising time", the defrosted food
must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately and then
re-frozen (after cooling).
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.

HINTS AND TIPS

from coils sound when refrigerant is
pumped.

regulator when the compressor
switches on or off.
