The freezing process lasts 24 hours:
during this period do not add other food
to be frozen.
5.2 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 at least
24 hours Temperature Regulator to the
Full Loaded position.
CAUTION!
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to
a power failure, if 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
cooling).
5.3 Opening and closing the lid
CAUTION!
Never pull the handle with
immense force.
As the lid is equipped with a tightly closing
seal, it is not easy to reopen it shortly after
closing (due to the vacuum formed inside).
Wait for few minutes before reopening the
appliance.
5.4 Storage baskets
Hang the baskets on the upper edge of
the freezer (A) or place them inside the
freezer (B). Turn and fix the handles for
these two positions as shown in the
picture.
