3.1 Switching on
1. Allow the appliance to stand for 4 hrs
after installation.
2. Insert the plug into the wall socket.
3. Turn the Temperature Regulator clock-
wise to a temperature lower than << -
16 °C >> position.
4. The Green On/Off Indicator Light will
light up and Red Alarm Indicator Light
will blink.
5.
The lighting up of the Green On/Off In-
dicator Light means that the appliance
is switched on.
6. The blinking of the Red Alarm Indicator
Light means an improper temperature
in the freezing compartment. In addi-
tion, an intermittent sound can be
heard, which can be stopped by
pressing the Acoustic Signal Stop and
Fast Freeze Switch once.
7. When switching on the freezer for the
first time, the Red Alarm Indicator Light
will blink until the internal temperature
has reached a level required for the
safe conservation of frozen food.
3.2 Switching off
1. To turn off the appliance, turn the
Temperature Regulator to the "O" po-
sition.
2. To disconnect the appliance from the
power disconnect the mains plug from
the wall socket.
3.3 Temperature regulation
The temperature within the appliance is
controlled by the Temperature Regulator
situated on the control panel.
To operate the appliance, proceed as fol-
lows:
• turn the Temperature Regulator toward
lower settings to obtain the minimum
coldness.
• turn the Temperature Regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.
A medium setting is generally the
most suitable.
However, the exact setting should be
chosen keeping in mind that the tempera-
ture inside the appliance depends on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.
3.4 Red Alarm Indicator Light
Under normal operating conditions, the in-
ternal temperature of the freezer will ensure
the long-term conservation of the stored
food.
When such temperature rises above a cer-
tain level (-12 °C), the appliance will trigger
an acoustic and light alarm. The light alarm
is a blink red light (Red Alarm Indicator
Light), while the acoustic alarm is an inter-
mittent sound.
You can stop the acoustic alarm by press-
ing the Acoustic Signal Stop Switch once.
When switching on the freezer for
the first time, the Red Alarm Indica-
tor Light will blink until the internal
temperature has reached a level re-
quired for the safe conservation of
frozen food.
3.5 Fast Freeze function
If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen:
1. Press the Fast Freeze Switch for 2-3
seconds to activate the fast-freeze
function 6-24 hours before placing the
fresh food in the freezer, the Yellow
Fast Freeze Indicator Light will illumi-
nate. The compressor will now run
continuously, to ensure that the fresh
food is frozen as quickly as possible.
2.
It is possible to deactivate the function
at any time by pressing the Fast Freeze
Switch for 2-3 seconds.
3. Place the foods in the freezing com-
partments (the first and second boxes),
for maximum freezing performance re-
move the freezer tray and drawers (if
the drawer is foreseen) and then place
the foods to be frozen directly on the
