FAST FREEZING

Fast freezing is an effective way to
preserve the natural characteristics of
food. When fast freezing, the ice
crystallization phase - that takes place
between 0°C and -5°C -
is faster which
minimizes the loss of
water in the food and
preserves its natural
constitution.
Food freezes gradually.
✔
Your freezer is provided with a
compartment ideal to speed up the
freezing of foods.
✔
For a faster freezing, place food in
this compartment and press the fast
freezing key in the control panel.
The yellow light in the panel will go
on, indicating that the fast freezing
function is actuated.
This function does not turn off
automatically.
✔
When opening the door, it is
normal for the lower drawer, basket
fronts and the door of the fast
freezing compartment of your
freezer to fog up due to the entry of
hot air.
Using the shelf (removable):
To store a bigger amount
of food or large foods,
remove the baskets and
shelves.
Important:
✔
We recommend to turn the
fast freezing function off after
26 hours.
✔
These models of freezers are
provided with a
plastic complement
on the right-hand-
side of the second
shelf. Under normal
usage conditions,
there will be no ice
formation in this
area.
✔
In case you wish to interrupt the
fast freezing function, at any time
press the key that actuates this
function.
