Use Of The Freezer Compartment; Temperature Regulation; Freezing Fresh Food - Electrolux ERZ36700 User Manual

Attention!
The fridge compartment must be
empty whilst the Holiday function is on.

Use of the freezer compartment

The freezer is provided with the symbol
which means that it is
suitable for freezing fresh food and for
long term storage of frozen and
deep-frozen food.

Temperature regulation

The temperature may be regulated
between -15°C and -24°C.
We suggest setting the internal tem-
perature of approximately -18°C,
which guarantees proper freezing and
conservation of the frozen foods.
Attention!
During the stability period by the first
starting the temperature displayed
cannot correspond to the setting
temperature. During this time it is
possible that the temperature
displayed is different than the setting
temperature.
Attention!
Difference between the temperature
displayed and temperature setting is
normal. Especially when:
- a new setting has recently been
selected
- the door has been left open for a
long time
- warm food has been placed in the
compartment.
Difference until 5°C inside the
compartment are quite normal.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the warmest temperature inside
the compartment.

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially
frozen and deep-frozen food, and for
freezing fresh food.
The maximum quantity of foods to
freeze in 24 hours is shown on the
serial number plate.
To freeze the amount of food indicated
on the serial number plate, place the
food directly in touch with the cooling
surface (remove the drawer or basket).
In case the food is frozen inside the
drawers or baskets, the maximum
quantity is slightly reduced.
To freeze fresh foods, you will need to
activate the Action Freeze function.
Press key D (several times if necessary)
until the corresponding icon appears
.
You must confirm the choice by pres-
sing key E within a few seconds. You
will hear the buzzer and on the display
will appear some animation with lines.
After a pre-cooling period of 24 hours,
place the foods in the freezer. Place
the food to be frozen in the
compart-ment, as this is the coldest
point.
The freezing process takes 24 hours.
During this period do not put other
foods in the freezer.
This function stops automatically after
52 hours.
It is possible to de-activate the function
at any time by pressing key D until the
corresponding icon flashes and then
key E.
