Start-up and use  
Starting the appliance  
! Do not open the door during freezing.  
GB  
! 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.  
! 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.  
! RED Indicator Light. When this red light comes on for a  
prolonged period of time, it means that the freezer is not  
functioning properly and the temperature is rising too  
much. (Call your Service Centre)  
This warning light might come on for a brief period when:  
a) the door is left open for an extended period of time  
(when the freezer is being loaded or unloaded).  
b) when the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is set  
to the Super position (YELLOW indicator light  
illuminated).  
1. Plug the appliance in and make sure the GREEN and  
RED indicator lights are illuminated (press the ON/  
OFF switch so it is in the - position).  
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the  
Super position (YELLOW indicator light illuminated).  
3. When the red indicator light switches off, turn the  
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to a medium  
position. The freezer is now ready to be used.  
In these two cases, the fact that the warning light comes  
on does not indicate that the freezer is malfunctioning or  
there is a defect.  
Using the freezer to its full potential  
•Use the TEMPERATURE CONTROL knob to adjust the  
temperature.  
1 = warmest  
4 = coldest  
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 top FREEZER and  
STORAGE compartment.  
•Do not place glabssottles which contain liquids, and  
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer  
because they could break.  
•The maximum quantity of ftohoadt may be frozen daily is  
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties  
located within the freezer (for example: Kg/24h: 4).  
•To freeze food, turn the TEMPERATURE  
ADJUSTMENT knob to the Super position (YELLOW  
indicator light illuminated). Place the food you wish to  
freeze in the top compartment, making sure it does  
not come into contact with any items which are  
already frozen. After 24 hours, once the freezing  
process is complete, turn the TEMPERATURE  
ADJUSTMENT knob to a medium position (YELLOW  
indicator light illuminated).  
! Remember to carry out this last step in order.  
•Placing large amounts of fresh food in the freezer may  
temporarily increase the temperature inside the  
appliance (this is indicated when the RED indicator  
light illuminates). This situation, as it is only  
temporary, does not adversely affect the storage  
conditions of food that is already frozen.

Maintenance and care  
Defrosting the appliance  
Switching the appliance off  
GB  
! Follow the instructions below.

completely. This can be made easier by placing  
containers with lukewarm water in the freezer  
compartment..

warm water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse  
and dry them carefully.  
5. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully  
before switching the appliance on again.  
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours  
6. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal  
storage conditions have been restored, before  
placing food in the freezer compartment.

Precautions and tips  
Disposal  
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in  
compliance with international safety standards. The  
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and  
must be read carefully.  
GB  
•Observe local environmental standards when  
disposing packaging material for recycling purposes.  
•The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires  
that old household electrical appliances must not be  
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste  
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately  
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the  
materials they contain and reduce the impact on  
human health and the environment. The crossed out  
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of  
your obligation, that when you dispose of the  
appliance it must be separately collected.  
This appliance complies with the following  
Community Directives:  
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and  
subsequent amendments;  
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic  
Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;  
- 2002/96/CE..
