HOW TO USE THE FREEZER
The freezer can be used for storing already frozen food and
for freezing fresh food.
Switching on the freezer for the first time
t There is no need to set the freezer temperature on the
thermostat because the appliance is already factory set.
t Plug in the appliance.
t
The alarm signal activates, indicating that the freezer has not yet
reached a sufficiently cold temperature for storage of foodstuffs.
t Only place food in the freezer once the alarm signal has
deactivated (for further details, see the enclosed product
sheet).
Temperature Adjustment
For temperature adjustment, see the enclosed product sheet.
Note:
Ambient air temperature, the frequency of door opening and the
position of the appliance can affect the freezer internal
temperature.
Take these factors into consideration when setting the thermostat
knobs.
“6th Sense” function
The 6th Sense function, if present, is automatically activated in the
following cases:
Door opening
The function activates when door opening causes the internal
temperature to increase to values that do not ensure safe storage
of food and remains active until optimal storage conditions have
been restored.
Placing fresh food in the freezer
The function activates when fresh food is placed in the freezer and
remains active until optimal freezing conditions are reached so as
to ensure the best freezing quality with the lowest power
consumption.
NOTE:
Besides the quantity of food loaded into the freezer,
ambient temperature and the quantity of food already inside the
freezer affect the duration of the 6th Sense function. Therefore
significant duration variations are quite normal.
Freezing
The amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24
hours is indicated on the appliance data plate.
For optimum appliance performance, press the fast freeze button
(until the yellow LED lights up) 24 hours before placing fresh food
in the freezer.
After placing fresh food in the freezer, 24 hours on fast freeze
function is generally sufficient; After 24 hours, deactivate the fast
freeze function
Attention:
In order to save energy, when freezing small amounts of food, the
fast freeze function can be deactivated after a few hours.
If the 6th Sense function is present, appliance operation is
controlled automatically and no operation is required (see chapter
“6th Sense” function)
