Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
!Before starting the appliance, follow the installation instructions (see Installation).
!Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the red ALARM and green POWER indicator lights illuminate (the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob must not be on “
”).
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the “Super” position: the yellow SUPER FREEZE indicator light will illuminate.
3. When the red indicator light switches off, turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to a medium position. The freezer is now ready to be used.
Using the freezer to its full potential
•Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature (see Description).
•Do not
•Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment where the temperature drops below
•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 each day is indicated on the data plate, which is located inside the freezer (for example: 4 kg per 24 hours).
•To freeze food (if the freezer is already in operation):
-For small quantities measuring less than half of the value indicated on the data plate, turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the SUPER (rapid freezing) position (the corresponding yellow indicator light will illuminate), place the food inside and close the door. After 24 hours, once the freezing process is complete, turn the knob back to its normal operating position.
-For large quantities measuring over half of the maximum value indicated on the data plate, turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the SUPER position 24 hours before placing the food you wish to freeze inside. After another 24 hours, once the freezing process is complete, turn the knob back to its normal operating position.
!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
! Warning Indicator Light. When this red warning light |
| |
GB | ||
comes on for a prolonged period of time, it means that the | ||
| ||
freezer is not functioning properly and the temperature is |
| |
| ||
rising too much. (Call your Service Centre) |
| |
This warning light might come on for a brief period when: |
|
a)the door is left open for an extended period of time (when the freezer is being loaded or unloaded).
b)the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is turned to the “Super” setting.
In these two cases, the fact that the warning light comes on does not indicate that the freezer is malfunctioning or there is a defect.
Ice3 ice tray
The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with water is also provided).
1.Pull out the tray by pushing it up.
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).
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.
