Using The Freezer To Its Full Potential - Hotpoint Ariston BD 2930 V Manual De Instrucciones

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked
and eaten (within 24 hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been defrosted.
Fresh food must be stored above the grill in the freezer
compartment and if possible be in direct contact with
the walls (side and rear), where the temperature drops
below -18°C and guarantees rapid freezing.
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer
because they could break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily
is indicated on the plate containing the technical
properties located on the bottom left side of the
refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4)
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside
the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least
9 -14 hours.
! If the room temperature drops below 14°C for an
extended period of time, the ideal temperature will not be
reached in the freezer compartment and food preservation
will be reduced.
ICE tray
The Easy Ice trays are set into the freezer door to
maximise the space within the freezer. The trays are drip-
free and sealed to prevent food from tainting the ice
cubes.
1. Pull out the tray by pushing it
up and then outwards (see
diagram).
Check that the tray is ompletely
empty and fill it with water
through the opening provided.
2. Take care not to exceed the
level indicated (MAX WATER
LEVEL). Excess water prevents
the ice cubes from dispensing (if
this happens, wait for the ice to
melt and empty the tray).
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the
connected compartments each
mould fills with water (see
diagram).

WATER LEVEL
4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray
back, placing the top part in the corresponding housing
and allowing it to drop in again.
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately
8 hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet
the outside so that the ice cubes come loose and take
them out through the opening.
