Pilot light
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in
mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends
on:
Temperature regulator
Fast Freeze light
Fast Freeze switch
Alarm light
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.
Switching on
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Important! If the ambient temperature is high or the
appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is set to the
lowest temperatures, it may run continuously causing
frost to form on the rear wall. In this case the dial must be
set to a higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting
and therefore reduced energy consumption.
Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise to a medium
setting.
The pilot light will light up.
Important! If the temperature inside the appliance is too
high the Alarm light will blink. Active the Fast Freeze
function.
Fast Freeze function
You can activate the Fast Freeze function by pressing the
Fast Freeze switch.
Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the Temperature regulator
to the "O" position.
The Fast Freeze light will light up.
The pilot light will switch off.
This function stops automatically after 52 hours.
It is possible to deactivate the function at any time by
pressing Fast Freeze switch.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated.
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
The Fast Freeze light will switch off.
Excessive temperature alarm
• turn the Temperature regulator toward lower settings
to obtain the minimum coldness.
• turn the Temperature regulator toward higher settings
to obtain the maximum coldness.
An increase in the temperature in a compartment (for ex-
ample due to an power failure) is indicated by flashing of
the Alarm light.
When normal conditions are restored the Alarm light will
switch off automatically.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
First use
Cleaning the interior
Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders,
as these will damage the finish.
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the
interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water
and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell
of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.

Daily use
The symbols show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the
appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or
lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends
on the quality of the foods and treating before freezing.
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food
and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the Fast Freeze function at
least 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen in the
freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the two top compart-
ments.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24
hours is specified on the rating plate , a label located on
the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period
do not add other food to be frozen.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be
thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room tem-
perature, depending on the time available for this opera-
tion.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly
from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.
Ice-cube production
After 24 hours, when the freezing process is completed,
return to the required temperature (see "Temperature reg-
ulation").
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays for the
production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with water, then
put them in the freezer compartment.
Storage of frozen food
Important! Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before
putting the products in the compartment let the appliance
run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
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 re-frozen (after cooling).
Freezing Calendar
Helpful Hints and Tips
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to
be frozen should be added during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned,
foodstuffs;
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here
are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in
24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
5

• prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly
and completely frozen and to make it possible subse-
quently to thaw only the quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and
make sure that the packages are airtight;
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you
should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were
adequately stored by the retailer;
• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which
is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature
of the latter;
• lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt
reduces the storage life of food;
• waterices,ifconsumedimmediatelyafterremovalfrom
the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin
to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each
individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage
time.
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the
foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave it open longer
than absolutely necessary.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot
be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food
manufacturer.
