Daily use

Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing
fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen
food for a long time.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen
in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this
period do not add other food to be frozen.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of
use, before putting the products in the compart-
ment let the appliance run for 24 hours with the
Temperature Regulator to the Full Loaded posi-
tion.
Important! 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).
Opening and closing the lid
As the lid is equipped with a tightly closing seal,
it is not easy to reopen it shortly after closing
(due to the vacuum formed inside).
Wait a few minutes before reopening the appli-
ance. The vacuum valve will help you to open
the lid.
