• At the recommended setting, the optimum storage time in the refrigerator is no more than 3 days.

• At the recommended setting, the optimum storage time in the freezer is not more than 1 month.

• Other settings may reduce the optimum storage time.

• The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and for the long-term storage of frozen and deep-frozen food.

• Place the fresh food you want to freeze in the freezer compartment.

• The maximum amount of food that can be frozen within 24 hours is indicated on the type plate.

• The freezing process takes 24 hours: No other food should be frozen during this time.

When using the appliance for the first time or after an extended period of non-use, allow the appliance to run on the highest setting for at least 2 hours before placing food in the compartment. Important note! In case of accidental defrosting, e.g. if the power has been switched off for longer than the value indicated in the table of technical characteristics under “Defrosting time”, the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then refrozen (after cooking). DEFROSTING Deep-frozen or frozen food can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temperature before use, depending on how much time is available for this process. Small pieces can even be cooked while still frozen, straight from the freezer. In this case, cooking will take longer.21 ACCESSORIES MOVABLE SHELVES The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of guide rails so you can position the shelves as desired!

POSITIONING THE DOOR SHELVES

To allow the storage of food packaging of different sizes, the door shelves can be positioned at different heights. To adjust them, proceed as follows: Pull the door shelves slowly in the direction of the arrow until released, then reposition it as required.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

The following are some important hints to help you get the most out of the freezing process:

• The maximum amount of food that can be frozen within 24 hours is indicated on the type plate;

• The freezing process takes 24 hours. No other food should be frozen during this time;

• Freeze only good quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned food;

• Prepare food in small portions so that it can be frozen quickly and completely and so you can later defrost only the amount you need;

• Wrap the food in aluminium foil or polyethylene and make sure that the food is wrapped airtight;

• In order to prevent already frozen food from increasing in temperature, make sure it does not come into contact with fresh, non-frozen food;

• Lean foods can be stored better and longer than those containing fat, and salt reduces the shelf life of foods;

• Water ice consumed immediately after removal from the freezer may cause cold burns upon contact with the skin;

• It is recommended to mark the date of freezing on each individual pack in order to prevent unnecessarily removing packs from the freezer compartment, which may possibly cause cold burns to the skin;

• It is recommended to mark the freezing date on each individual pack so that you can keep track of the storage time.22

HINTS FOR STORING FROZEN FOOD

To get the best performance from this appliance, you should:

• ensure that any commercially frozen food was properly stored by the retailer;

• take care to transport the frozen food from the grocery shop to the freezer as quickly as possible;

• not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than necessary.

• remember that foods that have been thawed spoil quickly and cannot be frozen once again;

• do not exceed the storage time indicated by the food manufacturer.

HINTS FOR REFRIGERATING FRESH FOOD

To achieve the best possible performance, please observe the following recommendations:

• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.

• Cover or wrap food, especially if it has a strong smell.

• Pack (all types of) food in polyethylene bags and place them on the glass shelves above the vegetable drawer.

• To be on the safe side, only store them in this way for a day or two.

• Cooked food, cold dishes etc.: These should be covered and can be placed on any shelf.

• Fruits and vegetables: These should be cleaned thoroughly and placed in the designated drawer(s).

• Butter and cheese: These should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polyethylene bags in order to trap as little air as possible.

• Milk bottles: These should have a lid and should be stored in the door shelves inside the door.

• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic should not be kept in the refrigerator unwrapped.23 CLEANING For hygienic reasons, the interior of the appliance, including the accessories in the interior, should be cleaned regularly. CAUTION! The appliance must not be connected to the power supply during cleaning. Danger of electric shock!
