Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

GB
! 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.
! The appliance comes with a motor protection control
system which makes the compressor start approximately
8 minutes after being switched on. The compressor also
starts each time the power supply is cut off whether
voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).
1. Insert the plug into the socket and make sure that
the TEMPERATURE indicator light illuminates. If the
temperature indicator light doesn't illuminate, press the
ON/OFF button.
2. Set the TEMPERATURE indicator lights to an average
value .

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Use the TEMPERATURE CONTROL button to set the
temperature value.
We recommend, however, a medium position.
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked
and eaten (within 24 hours).
• 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 FREEZER and
STORAGE compartment.
• 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 daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located within the freezer (for example: Kg/24h: 4).
• To freeze (if the freezer is already operating):
- for small quantities which are less than those
indicated on the data plate, press the rapid freezing
QUICK FREEZE button (corresponding indicator light
illuminates), insert the food and close the door. The
function is disabled automatically after 24 hours.
• In order to obtain a greater amount of space in
the freezer compartment, you may remove the
bins (except the lowest bin and the special COOL
CARE ZONE bin (if exists), which has an adjustable
temperature) and place the food directly onto the
supplied rack.

! 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 -14 hours.
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.
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.
