Use of the freezer compartment
The freezer is provided with the
symbol which means that it is
suitable for freezing fresh food and
for long term storage of frozen and
deep-frozen food.

Temperature regulation

The temperature may be regulated
between -15°C and -24°C.
We suggest setting the internal
temperature of approximately -18°C,
which guarantees proper freezing and
conservation of the frozen foods.
Attention!
A difference between the temperature
displayed and the set temperature is
normal. Especially when:
- a new setting has recently been
selected
- the door has been left open for a long
time
- warm food has been placed in the
compartment
A difference up to 5°C inside the
compartment is normal.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the warmest temperature inside
the compartment.
Important
In the event of accidental defrosting,
for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer
than the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).

Excessive temperature alarm

An increase in the temperature in the
freezer compartment (for example due to
an power failure) is indicated by:
- flashing temperature;
- freezer compartment flashing ;
- flashing of the icon ;
- sounding of buzzer.
When normal conditions are restored:
- the acoustic signal shuts off;
- the temperature value continues to
flash;
When you press key "E" to de-activate the
alarm, the highest temperature reached
in the compartment appears on the
display for some seconds. Then it
returns to normal operation showing the
temperature of the selected
compartment.
During the alarm phase, the buzzer can
be switched off by pressing key E.

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen
and deepfrezen food, and for freezing
fresh food.
The maximum quantity of foods to freeze
in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.
To freeze the amount of food indicated on
the serial number plate, place the food
directly in touch with the cooling surface
(remove the drawer or basket).
In case the food is frozen inside the
drawers or baskets, the maximum
quantity is slightly reduced.
Place the food to be frozen in the
compartment, as this is the coldest point.
To freeze fresh foods, you will need to
activate the fast freeze function. Press
key D (several times if necessary) until
the corresponding icon appears
