9.1.5 Temperature variation buttons
These buttons can be used to set the temperature inside the freezer section.
The temperature referred to in this section is the MEAN temperature inside the appliance, which can be
set from a maximum of -15°C to a minimum of -26°C.
In normal operation, when the door is opened the display will show the actual temperature inside the
freezer section.
To view the temperature, simply press the or key once. The preset temperature will flash on the
display for a few seconds. To modify it, press the or keys within 5 or 6 seconds to increase or
decrease the temperature. After 5 or 6 seconds the display will stop flashing and will return to the actual
mean temperature inside the freezer section.
For guidance on placing foods inside the freezer section, see 9.2 Freezing and storing foods.
9.1.6 Display
The temperature shown on this display is the MEAN temperature inside the freezer section.
This display has several functions:
- In normal operation, it shows the temperature inside the freezer section;
- after an electrical blackout it will show the highest temperature the freezer section has reached,
warning the user that some foods may have been damaged by the excessively high temperature.
- If the display shows a flashing H, the temperature inside the section has risen by too many degrees
and the foods have probably thawed completely.
9.1.7 “Turbo-cool” button
Pressing this button activates the “rapid freezing” function. The orange pilot light will come on. When this
function is set the refrigeration system operates continuously and allows rapid freezing of large amounts
of fresh foods. Small amounts of fresh foods (up to about 2 kg) can be frozen even without activating the
rapid freezing function. To avoid wasting electricity, do not keep this function activated for long periods
unless really necessary. However, there is also a device which limits the duration of this function to a
maximum of 16 hours.
For best results, turn the function on a few hours before placing a large amount of fresh food for freezing
inside the freezer section.
The performance of this function will vary depending on weather conditions (temperature and relative
humidity) and the frequency with which the door is opened.
9.2 Freezing and storing foods
For proper storage and freezing, fruit and vegetables should be packed in portions of not more than 1 kg
and meat and fish up to a max. of 2 kg. Small packages of food freeze more quickly, giving better
conservation of their nutrients and flavour, even after thawing and preparation.
Use only freezer bags, aluminium film, food-approved film and freezer containers.
Do not use paper bags, non food-approved cellophane bags, shopping bags or used freezer
bags. Pack foods in airtight packs and try to expel all the air. If using bags, close the packs with
the elastic bands or plastic-coated wire strips provided.
Always cool hot foods to room temperature before placing them in the freezer and do not allow frozen
foods to touch fresh foods for freezing. Always mark packs with the date of freezing, quantity and type of
food and make sure that foods are fresh and in good condition. The max. amount of fresh foods which
can be frozen in a 24-hour period is marked on the nameplate. Do not exceed the stated amount: this
reduces the freezer's efficiency and its ability to preserve the frozen foods it already contains.
If you are expecting to have to freeze a large amount of food, it is best to turn the “turbo-cool” function on
3 or 4 hours in advance, remove the middle basket number described in “9. Freezer section”) just
above the bottom tip-up removable basket and arrange the foods, packaged as described, straight on
the cooling coil.
