Using the Freezer

For optimal performance and food preservation.

Loading: Do not overpack. Allow space between items for air circulation. Place frequently used items at the front.
Storage Times: Adhere to recommended storage times for different food types (see food guide in manual).
Defrosting (if needed): The NoFrost system typically prevents ice build-up. If cleaning requires defrosting, unplug the appliance and let ice melt naturally.

Tip: Label packages with contents and date to keep track of storage time.

Special Functions

NoFrost: Operates automatically. Circulates dry air to prevent condensation and ice formation on food and interior walls.

BioFresh Compartment: Maintains a temperature just above 0°C with higher humidity, ideal for preserving the freshness, vitamins, and taste of fruits, vegetables, fish, and dairy for longer.

Holiday Mode: If going away for an extended period with an empty freezer, you can switch to a higher temperature setting to save energy.

Care & Maintenance

Unplug the appliance before any cleaning.

Interior: Clean with a solution of warm water and mild detergent. Wipe dry.
Exterior & Door Seals: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Condenser Coil (rear): Vacuum the dust grille at the back once or twice a year to maintain efficiency.
Defrost Water Drain (if applicable): Check and clear the drain hole if you notice water accumulation.

CAUTION! Never use sharp objects to remove ice. Never use steam cleaners.
