about 50 hours.

The exact conguration of the control panel may vary

according to the model.

INSTALLATION

• Unpack the appliance.

• Remove the 4 spacers inserted between the door

and the appliance. (Fig 3)

• Make sure the defrost water drain plug (if provided) is

correctly positioned (E).

• For optimum appliance operation and to avoid damage

when the door is opened, leave a space of at least 7 cm

from the rear wall and 7 cm at the sides. (Fig. 4)

• Fit the accessories (if provided).

• Clean the inside of the appliance before using it.

SWITCHING ON THE APPLIANCE

• The appliance is factory set for optimum operation at a

temperature of -18°C.

• Plug in the appliance.

• The green LED lights up (if provided).

• Also the red LED (if provided) will switch on because

the temperature inside the appliance is not yet

suciently low for food storage. The red LED will

normally switch o within the rst six hours after the

appliance is switched on.

• After connecting the appliance to the mains supply

and when the optimal temperature has been reached,

ensure that the fast freeze button is not pressed (the

yellow LED, if provided, is o).

• Place food inside the product only when the red LED

(if provided) has switched o.

Note: As the seal is tight, the appliance lid cannot be

reopened immediately after closing. Wait a few minutes

before re-opening the lid of the appliance.

This appliance features “skin condenser” technology:

the condensing unit is integrated into the walls of

the freezer. For this reason the side and front walls

of the product may become hot while the product

is running. This is entirely normal and also reduces

the risk of condensation forming in particularly

critical environmental conditions (see paragraph

“Troubleshooting guide”).

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

Use the thermostat to select the ideal storage temperature.

To adjust the internal temperature, proceed as follows:

• Turn the thermostat knob to 1 for a storage temperature

that is less cold.

• Turn the thermostat knob to 6 for a colder storage

temperature.

• For partial loads, or when the load indicator is below

the “e” symbol inside the appliance (if present), it is

advisable to move the thermostat to the lower position

(on “e”, if present on the thermostat scale)

FREEZING FOOD

Preparation of fresh food for freezing

• Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in: aluminium

foil, cling lm, air and water-tight plastic bags,

polyethylene containers with lids, provided they are

suitable for freezing foods.

• Food must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in order

to obtain high quality frozen food.

• Fresh vegetables and fruit should preferably be frozen

as soon as they are picked to maintain the full original

nutritional value, consistency, colour and avour.

• Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the

appliance.

Freezing fresh food

• Place foods to be frozen in direct contact with the walls

of appliance (Fig. 5):

A) - foods to be frozen,

B) - foods already frozen.

• Avoid placing foods to be frozen in direct contact with

food already frozen.

• For best and fastest freezing, foods should be split into

small portions; this will also be useful when the frozen

items are to be used.

1. At least 24 hours before storing fresh food in the

appliance, press the fast freeze button (4).

2. Place the food to be frozen and keep the lid of the

appliance closed for 24 hours. The fast freeze function

automatically deactivates after about 50 hours.

FOOD STORAGE

Refer to the table on the appliance.

Classication of frozen foods

Load and classify the frozen foods; it is advisable

to indicate the storage date on the packs, to ensure

consumption before the expiry dates listed in months in

Fig. 6 for each type of food.

Advice for storing frozen food

When buying frozen food, make sure that:

• The packaging is intact (food in damaged containers

may have deteriorated). If a package is swollen or has

damp patches, the product may not have been stored

in optimum conditions and therefore undergone partial

defrosting.

• When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last

and carry them in a thermally insulated bag.

• On arriving home, immediately place the frozen food in

the appliance.

• Avoid or minimise temperature variations. Observe the

expiry date on the packaging.

• Always follow the storage instructions on frozen food

packages.

Note:

• Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately.

Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it

has thawed. Once cooked, the food can be refrozen.

• In case of a prolonged power failure: Do not open

the appliance door, except to place ice packs (if

provided) over the frozen foods on the right and left

side of the appliance. This will slow down the rise in

temperature.

APPLIANCE DEFROSTING

The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of

ice on the walls reaches 5-6 mm.

• Disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

• Remove food from the appliance and put it in a very

cool place or a thermally insulated bag.

• Leave the appliance door open.

• Remove the internal defrost water drain plug (depending

on model) (Fig. 8).

• Remove the external defrost water drain plug

(depending on model) and reposition it as shown in

g. 8.

• Use the separator (depending on model) inside the

product as a recipient for any remaining water, (D) as

shown in g. 8. If there is no separator, use a shallow

container.

• Defrosting can be sped up by using a spatula to detach

the frost from the appliance walls.

• Remove the frost from the bottom of the appliance.

• In order to avoid permanent damage to the

appliance interior, do not use pointed or sharp

metal instruments to remove the ice.

• Do not use abrasive products or heat up the

interior articially.

• Dry the inside of the appliance thoroughly.

• Ret the plug after defrosting.

HANGING THE LID LIGHT BULB (if provided)

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply.

• Remove the diuser by following the sequence of steps

shown in the gure.

• Unscrew the light bulb and replace it with an identical

bulb of the same wattage and voltage.

• Ret the diuser and plug in the appliance.
