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.
• To use the maximum capacity of the
freezer compartment, use the glass
shelves for the upper and middle section,
and use the lower basket for the bottom
section.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze
home cooking (and any other food
which needs to be frozen quickly) more
quickly because of the freezing shelf’s
greater freezing power. Fast freezing
shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer
compartment.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer
door immediately after closing it, you
will nd that it will not open easily. This
is normal. Once equilibrium has been
reached, the door will open easily.
Important note:
• 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.
Suggestion for Food Storage:
• It’s suggested to set the temperature
at 4 °C in the fridge compartment, and,
whether possible, at -18 °C in the freezer
compartment.
• For most food categories, the longest
storage time in the fridge compartment
is achieved with colder temperatures.
Since some particular products (as fresh
fruits and vegetables) may be damaged
with colder temperatures, it is suggested
to keep them in the crisper drawers,
whenever present. If not present,
maintain an average setting of the
thermostat.
• For frozen food, refer to the storage
time written on the food packaging.
This storage time is achieved whenever
the setting respects the reference
temperatures of the compartment
(one star -6 °C, two stars -12 °C,
three stars -18 °C)
