• All food stored in a NaturaFresh
compartment should be taken out of
the drawers roughly 15 - 30 min before
consumption, particularly fruit and
vegetables to be consumed without any
additional cooking process. Allowing
fruit and vegetables to return to room
temperature will improve the texture
and flavour.
Fan
The refrigerator compartment is equipped
with a device that allows rapid cooling of
food and keeps a more uniform
temperature in the compartment.
This device activates automatically when
needed, for example for a quick
temperature recovery after door opening
or when the ambient temperature is high.
The Fan device stops when the
door is open and restarts
immediately after the door
closing.
Freezing and storage of frozen
food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
When first starting-up or after a period out
of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least
2 hours with the FastFreeze function
turned on.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the top
compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be
frozen in 24 hours is specified on the
rating plate, a label located on the inside
of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours,
during this period do not add other food to
be frozen.
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).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
compartment or at room temperature,
depending on the time available for this
operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still
frozen, directly from the freezer: in this
case, cooking will take longer.

more trays for the production of ice-cubes.
Do not use metallic instruments
to remove the trays from the
freezer.
1. Fill these trays with water
