ensure safe storage of food and remains active until
optimal storage conditions have been restored.

The function activates when fresh food is placed in
the freezer and remains active until optimal freezing
conditions are reached so as to ensure the best
freezing quality with the lowest power consumption.
Note: Besides the quantity of food loaded into the
freezer, ambient temperature and the quantity of food

2.4. BLACK OUT ALARM

After a power blackout, your product is designed to
automatically monitor the temperature in the freezer

dispose of the entire content of the freezer. The
