Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment ( ) is suitable for

long term storage of commercially frozen food and

for freezing fresh food.

To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change

the setting of the thermostat knob.

However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the

thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but

remember that, in this condition, the refrigerator

compartment temperature might drop below 0°C.

If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer

setting.

To help you make the most of the freezing process,

here are some important hints:

the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24

hrs. is shown on the rating plate;

the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food

to be frozen should be added during this period;

D009

only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly

cleaned, foodstuffs;

prepare food in small portions to enable it to be

rapidly and completely frozen and to make it

possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity

required;

wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and

make sure that the packages are airtight;

do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food

which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in

temperature of the latter;

lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones;

salt reduces the storage life of food;

water ices, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause

the skin to be freeze burnt;

it is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each

individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the

storage time;

on the inner door or special card (if supplied) you

will ﬁnd sketches of various animals and food types

together with the recommended storage time (in

months) from the time of freezing;

do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in the

freezing compartment as they may burst.

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 for at least two hours on the

coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to

the normal operating position.

To obtain the best performance from this appliance,

you should:

make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs

were adequately stored by the retailer;

be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from

the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible

time;

not open the door frequently or leave it open longer

than absolutely necessary.

Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and

cannot be refrozen.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the

food manufacturer.

Important

If there is a power failure when food is in the freezer, do

not open the door of the freezer compartment. The frozen

food will not be affected if the power cut is of short

duration (up to 6-8 hours) and the freezer compartment is

Is it normal that water or ice drops are forming on the back wall of my refrigerator? Verified

Yes, this a completely normal phenomenom. The moisture that enters the refrigerator with warm air or products will settle on the coldest part, being the back wall. Because the back wall can reach temperatures below freezing, the drops will freeze from time to time. When the refrigerator is idle the drops will thaw and flow to the drain of the refrigerator.

De door of my refrigerator will not close properly, why is that? Verified

The two most common causes are that the refrigerator is not level and that the door seal is damaged or has food remains on it. Make sure the refrigerator is level and check the door seal. Replace the seal if neccesary.

I bought a new refrigerator, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the refrigerator needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

How much space should I leave betwee my refrigerator and the wall? Verified

To ensure a good ventilation it's best to leave at least 5cm of free space on both sides and the back of the refrigerator.

How long does it take for my refrigerator to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the refrigerator. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator cannot be measured properly by feeling the air inside. The best way to tell if the refrigerator has reached the set temperature is to place a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it.

Can I put warm food or drinks in my refrigerator? Verified

Preferably not. The temperature in your refrigerator will rise, which negatively impacts the other items that are stored inside.

There is condensation in my refrigerator, why is that? Verified

There can be several causes. The door gasket can be defective, allowing outside air into the refrigerator. It's also possible that the refrigerator is not level, preventing the door from closing correctly. Another cause is a large difference between the temperature inside the refrigerator and outside while the door is being opened frequently.

There is mold on the rubber seals of my refrigerator, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the refrigerator and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.
