• 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.

Hints for storage of frozen food
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.
CAUTION!
When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching
the floor.
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free from
debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. If accessible, clean the condenser and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush.
This operation will improve the performance
of the appliance and save electricity
consumption.
Defrosting the freezer
CAUTION!
Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost from the evaporator
as you could damage it. Do not use
a mechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing
process other than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may
shorten their safe storage life.
