function at least 24 hours before placing the
food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
Store the fresh food evenly distributed in the
first compartment or drawer from the top.
The maximum amount of food that can be
frozen without adding other fresh food during

label located inside the appliance).
When the freezing process is complete, the
appliance automatically returns to the
previous temperature setting (see "Frostmatic
function").

5.2 Storage of frozen food
When activating an appliance for the first time

The freezer drawers ensure that it is quick
and easy to find the food package 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 circulation.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from the
door.
