INSTALLATION
DAILY USE
Location
The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat
such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc. Ensure that air can
circulate freely around the back of the cabinet to ensure best
performance. If the appliance is positioned below an overhanging
wall unit, the minimum distance between the top of the cabinet and
the wall unit must be at least 100 mm. Ideally, however, the appliance
should not be positioned below overhanging wall units. Accurate
leveling is ensured by one or more adjustable feet at the base of the
cabinet.
WARNING!
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains
power supply; the plug must therefore be easily accessible after
installation.
Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown
on the rating plate correspond to your domestic power supply.
The appliance must be grounded. The power supply cable plug
is provided with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power
supply socket is not grounded, connect the appliance to a separate
grounder in compliance with current regulations, consulting a
qualified electrician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety
precautions are not observed. This appliance complies with the
E.E.C. Directives.

First use
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and
all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap
so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then dry
thoroughly.
IMPORTANT!
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these
will damage the finish.

for 24 hours reset the freezer to your desired setting.
• The appliance may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in
a particularly hot environment or if you open the door often.
Freezing fresh food
• The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and
storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
• Place the fresh food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
• The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is
specified on the rating plate.
• The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add
other food to be frozen.
Storing frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting
food in the compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on a
higher setting.
IMPORTANT! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the
power has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under “rising time”, the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after
cooked).
Thawing
• Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in
the fridge compartment or at room temperature, depending on
the time available for this operation.
• Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the
freezer. In this case, cooking will take longer.
