Starting your appliance

Insert the plug into the wall socket. The appliance can be activated/deactivated by pressing the ON/OFF button.When the pilot light is illuminated this shows that the appliance is on.

Temperature control

The temperature within the freezer is controlled by the thermostat situated at the bottom of the cabi- net .

To operate the freezer proceed as follows:

Turn the thermostat control beyond the «O» posi- tion.

When you first start the freezer, we suggest that you turn the thermostat control to a medium setting. For easier turning of this control, use a small coin.

The internal temperature of the freezer is automati- cally adjusted by the thermostat to ensure safe food storage. However, if the appliance is working in unfavourable room conditions such as high tempera- ture and frequent door openings, it may be neces- sary to select a more suitable setting.

To obtain a lower temperature, turn the thermostat towards high numbers; to obtain a higher tempera- ture turn the control towards low numbers.

Warning light (red)

If the temperature warning light lights up, it indi- cates that the temperature within the freezer has reached a level where the safe food storage is no longer ensured.

When the freezer is first switched on, the warning light will stay on until the temperature has dropped to a safe level for the storage of frozen food.

Temperature acoustic alarm

This appliance incorporates an alarm which gives off an audible signal whenever the warning light comes on. This signal can be temporarily stopped by depressing the push button for fast-freezing .

The fast-freezing push button can be released as soon as the warning light is off.

Open door acoustic alarm

This appliance also incorporates an alarm which sounds if the door is left open for more than 60 sec- onds. You can switch off the signal closing the door.

Freezing fresh food

In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 18 kg of fresh food.

Activate fast freeze by depressing the fast-freeze switch 24 hours before you want to freeze your fresh food, the yellow light illuminates. This time can be shortened, depending on the quantity of food to be frozen. After the time has elapsed place the

food to be frozen in the two top compartments of the freezer as this is the coldest part; if freezing only a small amount of food, always use the top compart- ment.

Once the food is completely frozen (which could take up to 24 hours) press the fast freeze switch to deactivate the fast freeze mode; the yellow light goes off.

Distribute the frozen food packages in the other compartments, so that the top compartments can be used for a further freezing operation.

Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned foodstuffs.

Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is already frozen.

During the freezing process, ensure that the freezer door remains closed.

Frozen food storage

When you first start the freezer or if the freezer has been out of use for some time, we advise you to run your appliance for at least two hours in the «fast freeze» mode before storing frozen food.

To obtain the best performance from this appliance, we strongly recommend that you make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer and, furthermore, be sure that these frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the consumer in the shortest possible time (a temperature increase of the frozen food could shorten its storage period).

It is also advisable not to exceed the storage period indicated by the producer of the food.

Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than is absolutely necessary.

Important

Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in the freezer compartment.

Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer, can possibly result in a low temperature skin burn.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or "frost/freezer burns".

If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen food, do not open the door during the whole time of the power failure. If the freezer is fully loaded, the frozen food will not be affected if the power cut is of short duration; otherwise, it is recommended to consume the food within a very short time.
