Freezing Fresh Food
•The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and
storing frozen and deep-frozen food fora long time.
•Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom compartment.
•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.
Storing Frozen Food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use. Before putting the
product in the compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the
higher settings.
IMPORTANT!
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage
the finish.
IMPORTANT!
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example 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 cooked).

18
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the
freezer compartment or at room temperature, 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.
Food Storage Tips
Refrigerator
•To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost,
always store liquids in sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost
tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid
and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
•Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be
allowed to cool at room temperature and should be arranged to
ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator compartment.
•Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the
appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not
open the refrigerator door frequently.
•We recommend that meat and clean fish are loosely wrapped and
stored on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air
is cooler, as this provides the best storage conditions.
•Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.
Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-
sensitive vegetables (green leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) being
affected by ethylene releasing fruits (banana, peach, apricot, fig
etc.).
•Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
•Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of
the food and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator
storage.
•To avoid cross-contamination do not store meat products with fruit
and vegetables. Water leaking from meat may contaminate other
products in the refrigerator. You should package meat products and
clean any leakages on the shelves.
•Do not put food in front of the air flow passage.

19
•Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.
•See Food Storage Guide in Appendix 1
Freezer
•The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food, and
making ice cubes
•For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the
packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer
bags, aluminum foil polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
•Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen
food.
•Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be
consumed in one sitting.
•Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after
defrosting
•Never place warm food in the freezer compartment as it will thaw
the frozen food.
•Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on food packaging
when storing frozen food. If no information is provided food, should
not be stored for ore than 3 months from the date of purchase.
•When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been stored
under appropriate conditions and that the packaging is not
damaged.
•Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and
placed in the freezer as soon as possible
NOTE!
Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.
The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efficient
way to store the major food groups in your refrigerator
compartment.

20
•Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of
humidity and abnormal swelling. It is probable that it has been stored
at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have
deteriorated.
•The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature,
the thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of
food, and the length of time required to transport the product from
the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the
packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
•The maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24
hours is indicated on the appliance label.
•See Food Storage Guide in Appendix 1
NOTE!
If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing
it, you will find that it will not open easily. This is normal. Once
equilibrium has been reached, the door will open easily.
IMPORTANT!
•Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
•The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise,
basilica, watercress, vinegar, assorted spices, ginger, garlic,
onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.) changes
and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a long
period of time. Therefore, add small amounts of spices to food
to be frozen, or the desired spice should be added after the
food has thawed.
•The storage time of food is dependent on the type of oil used.
Suitable oils are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and butter.
Unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
•Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and other
food should be frozen in plastic folios or bags.
