• turn the Temperature regulator to-
ward higher settings to obtain the
maximum coldness.
A medium setting is generally
the most suitable.
However, the exact setting should be
chosen keeping in mind that the temper-
ature inside the appliance depends on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored

4. DAILY USE

4.1 Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen
and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary
to change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation,
turn the temperature regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.
In this condition, the refrigerator
compartment temperature might
drop below 0°C. If this occurs re-
set the temperature regulator to
a warmer setting.
Place the fresh food to be frozen on the
bottom compartment.
4.2 Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, before putting the products
in the compartment let the appliance run
at least 2 hours.
The freezer drawers ensure that it is
quick and easy to find the food package

• the location of the appliance.
If the ambient temperature is
high or the appliance is fully loa-
ded, and the appliance is set to
the lowest temperatures, it may
run continuously causing frost to
form on the rear wall. In this case
the dial must be set to a higher
temperature to allow automatic
defrosting and therefore reduced
energy consumption.
you want. If large quantities of food are
to be stored, remove all drawers except
for the bottom drawer which needs to
be in place to provide good air circula-
tion. On all shelves it is possible to place
food that protrude until 15 mm from the
door.
In the event of accidental de-
frosting, for example due to a
power failure, if the power has
been off for longer that the value
shown in the technical character-
istics chart under "rising time",
the defrosted food must be con-
sumed quickly or cooked imme-
diately and then re-frozen (after
cooling).
4.3 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be-
ing used, can be thawed in the refrigera-
tor compartment or at room tempera-
ture, 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.
