This time can be shortened, depending on the quantity of food to be frozen. After the time has elapsed place the food to be frozen in the top compartment of the freezer as this is the coldest part. Once the food is completely frozen (which could take up to 24 hours) return the fast freeze switch to the «OFF» position; the yellow light ➁ goes out. Distribute the frozen food packages in the other compartments, so that the top compartment can be used for a further freezing operation.
HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES Because of consumer demand, preservatives have been removed from many pre-prepared foods. This together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that safe handling and storage of food is even more important than ever. The following tips should help you to ensure that the food in your home is in as perfect condition as possible. ■ Keep the freezer door closed as much as possible.
DEFROSTING The freezer compartment will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 1/4". During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs. However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out and it is advisable to carry out this operation when the appliance is empty.

Warning This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorised technicians.
