Switching on and off
Before using for the first time
^Clean the inside of the appliance and the accessories with lukewarm water and a little
Important:
To ensure the correct functioning of the appliance, let it stand for between 1½ and 2 hours after transporting it to its final location before connecting it to the mains.
Switching on
^Press the On/Off button.
The temperature display and the alarm indicator light will flash until the freezer has cooled down to the correct temperature for freezing.
To enable the temperature to get sufficiently cold inside the appliance, allow the appliance to run for a few hours before placing food in it.
Cool pack
Place the cool pack in the top drawer or, to save space, in the shallow freezer drawer. The cool pack will be at its most effective after it has been in the freezer for approx. 24 hours.
Switching off
^Press the On/Off button until the temperature display goes out.
All the displays will go out and the cooling system will switch off.
Switching off for longer periods of time
If the appliance is not going to be used for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst on holiday:
^switch the appliance off,
^switch off at the wall socket and withdraw the plug,
^clean the appliance out and
^leave the door ajar to air the appliance.
If, during a long absence, the appliance is switched off but not cleaned out and the door is left shut, there is a danger of mould and odours building up inside the appliance.
