D.1.5 DIGITAL THERMOSTAT INDICATOR LED
The digital thermostat has 3 LEDs indicating:
- LED
on indicates activation of the compressor, LED
flashing indicates compressor delay.
- LED
on indicates manual defrost in progress; when
flashing it indicates manual activation.
- LED

D.1.6 ALARMS AND SIGNALLING
D.1.6.1 Alarms and signalling
The alarm is signalled by an LED
coming on at the alarm
icon.
The alarm signal due to a faulty cell sensor (referred to sensor 1)
appears directly on the instrument’s display with the indication
“E1”.
The alarm signal due to a faulty evaporator sensor (sensor 2)
appears directly on the instrument’s display with the indication
“E2”.
The maximum and minimum temperature alarms, referred to the
thermostat sensor, are defined by the parameters “HAL” (maxi-
mum temperature alarm) and “LAL” (minimum temperature alarm).
The latter are not shown on the display, but they can be viewed
by entering the folder “AL”.

D.1.7 DEFROSTING
- Automatic defrost
The appliance is equipped with an automatic defrost function.
This function is signalled by lighting up of the DEFROST LED
.
The defrost water is run into a bowl and automatically evapo-
rated.
- Manual activation of defrost
Keep the
“UP” button
pressed for at least 5 seconds
to
start a manual defrost cycle. This function is signalled by lighting
up of the DEFROST LED
.
If defrost conditions do not exist, the display flashes three times
to signal that the operation will not be carried out.
Defrosting cannot be started during the programming phase.
CAUTION:
Do not use spray defrost products on the freezers. They can be
harmful to the health and/or they may damage the materials of
which the appliance is made.
Note: defrosting takes place automatically also in refriger-
ated appliances. Defrost water is collected in a container in
the rear section, and from there it evaporates. Clean the drain
hole with the pipe-cleaner provided for this purpose. This
pipe-cleaner must be removed if the cavity is clogged (see
following figure).
D.1.8 PRODUCT LOADING (for all models)
Distribute the product evenly inside the compartment (away from
the door and back) in order to ensure good air circulation. The
racks can be placed in various positions thanks to the guides on
the walls of the cell.
Cover or wrap food before placing it in the refrigerator and avoid
putting very hot foods or steaming liquids inside. Do not leave the
door open any longer than necessary when placing food in the
refrigerator.
We suggest keeping the keys in a place which is accessible only
by authorized personnel. To prevent use of the appliance by
unauthorized personnel, it is advisable to lock it at all times.
For the maximum loads for each shelf, adhere to the following
table:
SHELF MAX. LOAD

SUGGESTIONS FOR REFRIGERATED MODELS:
•
Meat (all types):
should be placed in plastic bags and
preferably set on the lowest shelf.
In this position it can be
conserved for a maximum of one or two days.
