How to use the freezer compartment... For the preparation of food to be frozen, please consult a specialized manual. Food that has be thawed, even partially, must not be refrozen: you must cook it in order to consume it (within 24 hours) or to freeze it once again. When freezing fresh foods, remember that they should not touch other previously frozen or deep frozen foods.
Ice trays This new concept of ice trays is an exclusive Merloni patent. The fact that they are situated on the inner door of the freezer compartment ensures greater ergonomics and cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with water is also provided).
Tips on Saving Energy - Install it well And therefore far from heat sources, from direct sunlight, in a well aired place and according to the distances indicated in the section on "Installation/Aeration". - Just the right cold Too cold a compartment increases energy consumption. - Do not Overfill To conserve food properly, the cold air must circulate freely within the refrigerator. If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.
