Instruction for Use
The freezer compartment has star rating. It can be used to store frozen foods for the period of
time indicated on the food packaging. The freezer can also be used to freeze fresh food by positioning it
on the racks; place already frozen food in the lower basket so that it is not in contact with food still to be
frozen.
The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours is given on the rating plate.
Temperature adjustment
The temperature is factory-set to -18°C (display 4). To change the temperature setting, press buttons (2)
or (3) on the control panel until obtaining the required value.
Settable temperature limit:
• -17 °C least cold temperature
• -24 °C coldest temperature
Fast Freeze function (“Extra”)
Activate the fast freezing function by pressing the button (13) on the control panel 24 hours before placing
a large amount of fresh food in the freezer; the food will then freeze in the quickest possible time.
The function is activated when the yellow light (12) is on.
The “Extra” function is automatically deactivated after 48 hours.
In any case, the function can be manually deactivated by pressing the same button again (the yellow light
(12) goes off).
Important
• Wrap and seal the fresh food to be frozen in: aluminium foil, transparent film, waterproof plastic wrap,
polyethylene containers with lids end suitable freezer containers.
• Arrange the food to be frozen in the top drawer, leaving sufficient space around the packs for the air to
circulate freely.
Switching off the appliance (refrigerator and freezer)
Press the button (1) for 3 seconds. In this way the appliance switches off although remaining powered; the
inside light and all the LEDs on the control panel go off except the Vacation light (6) and displays (4) and
(7) which will show “- -” “- -”.
To reactivate appliance operation, press the same button again for 3 seconds.
