Fulgor Milano FBC 362 NF ED [6/60] Freezer compartment

6

Model with separate freezer compartment

The freezer compartment allows for the storage of frozen food (for the period indicated on the

packaging) and the freezing of fresh food. The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours is

written on the rating plate. Arrange the fresh food in the freezing area inside the freezer compartment

(see Quick Guide), leaving enough space around the food packages to allow air to circulate freely. It

is advisable that you do not re-freeze food that has partially defrosted. It is important to wrap the food

in a way that prevents the ingress of water, humidity or condensation.

Making ice cubes

For frost free models it is not necessary to carry out any defrosting procedures.

For other models, the build up of frost is a normal occurrence.

The quantity and speed of frost accumulation varies depending on the ambient conditions and

how often the door is opened. It is advisable to set the temperature colder or, if available, turn on

the quick freeze function (see Quick Guide) four hours before removing the food from the freezer

compartment, to prolong the preservation of the food during the defrosting phase. To defrost, turn

the appliance off and remove the drawers. Put the frozen food in a cool place. Leave the door

open to allow the frost to melt. To prevent the water from escaping during the defrost, it is advised

that you place an absorbent cloth on the bottom of the freezer compartment and wring it out

regularly.

In the freezer compartment you can also freeze fresh

food. The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours

is written on the rating plate.

How to freeze fresh food:

• arrange the food on the grille, if present (figure 1), or directly on the

bottom of the compartment (figure 2)

• put the food in the middle of the

compartment without it

coming into contact with food that is already frozen, keeping a

distance of about 20 mm (figure 1 and 2).
