intermittent sound can be heard, which can
be stopped by pressing the Acoustic Signal
Stop and Fast Freeze Switch once.
4. When switching on the freezer for the first
time, the Red Alarm Indicator Light will blink
until the internal temperature has reached a
level required for the safe conservation of
frozen food.
Switching off
1. To turn off the appliance, turn the
Temperature Regulator to the "O" position.
2. To disconnect the appliance from the
power, disconnect the mains plug from the
wall socket.
Temperature regulation
The temperature within the appliance is
controlled by the Temperature Regulator
situated on the control panel.
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
• turn the Temperature Regulator toward
lower settings to obtain the minimum
coldness.
• turn the Temperature Regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.
A medium setting is generally the
most suitable.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
appliance depends on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.
Red Alarm Indicator Light
Under normal operating conditions, the internal
temperature of the freezer will ensure the long-
term conservation of the stored food.
When such temperature rises above a certain
level (-12 °C, for example due to an earlier
power failure), the appliance will trigger an
acoustic and light alarm. The light alarm is a
blink red light (Red Alarm Indicator Light), while
the acoustic alarm is an intermittent sound.
You can stop the acoustic alarm by pressing
the Acoustic Signal Stop Button.
The Red Alarm Indicator Light
continues to flash until the internal
temperature has reached a level
required for the safe conservation of
frozen food.
Fast Freeze function
If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen:
1. Press the Fast Freeze Switch for 2-3
seconds to activate the Fast Freeze function
6-24 hours before placing the fresh food in
the freezer, the Yellow Fast Freeze Indicator
Light will illuminate. The compressor will
now run continuously, to ensure that the
fresh food is frozen as quickly as possible.
It is possible to deactivate the
function at any time by pressing
the Fast Freeze Switch for 2-3
seconds.
2. Place the food in the freezing compartment
or compartments (indicated with graphics)
and leave the Fast Freeze function for a
further 24 hours.
3. Once the food is completely frozen, press
the Fast Freeze Switch for 2- 3 seconds
and the Yellow Fast Freeze Indicator Light
will go out.
4. Move frozen food from the freezing
compartments into the storing
compartments to make room for another
freezing.
