button to the SF position;

to the mid point between Min and Max; the fan is
deactivated.
After this period place fresh food in the freezing
compartment. In NO FROST freezer model use central
drawer for freezing.
Do not let the already frozen packages touch the fresh ones.
NO FROST freezers require enough space under the ceiling
for the circulation of cold air, so avoid storing the food above
the marked level (see photo).
• After 24 hours you may move the food to the storage
compartment, and repeat the freezing procedure if required.
You may also remove the drawers and store frozen food
directly on cooling shelves.
• For freezing smaller quantities of fresh food (1-2 kg), the
engagement of the fast freeze function is not required.
