Freezing fresh food
The
4-star freezer is suitable for long term
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh food.
To fast freeze food, if the appliance has been out of
operation, allow it to run on the fast freeze setting for
at least three hours before loading the food.
If, however, the appliance is already in operation, set
it to run on the fast freeze setting for at least 24
hours before loading the food.
Place the food to be frozen in the upper
compartment of the freezer as this is the coldest
part.

The temperature alarm light (C)
The temperature alarm light turns on automatically
whenever the temperature within the freezer rises
above a certain value which might endanger
satisfactory long-term conservation.
It is perfectly normal for the temperature alarm light
to remain lit up for a short time after the freezer is
initially turned on. It will remain lit up until the
optimum temperature for the conservation of frozen
food is attained.
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash
the interior and all internal accessories with luke-
warm water and some neutral soap so as to remove
the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry
thoroughly.
Do not use detergents or abrasive
powders, as these will damage the finish.
USE OF THE FREEZER
Starting
Insert the power supply plug into the nearest wall
socket (the function indicator light (A) will light up
indicating that the freezer is receiving electrical
input). Turn the thermostat knob (E) to the right to a
medium setting (the temperature alarm light (C) will
light up).
To turn off the freezer, turn the thermostat knob to
the «O» position.
The refrigerator compartment will remain operating.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature
(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward
lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob
towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:
•
room temperature;
•
how often the door is opened;
