6th SENSE
GREEN INTELLIGENCE
The 6th Sense/ Green Intelligence function works
to maintain the right temperature in the following
cases:
- Door opened for a while
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.
- Fresh food stored 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/ Green Intelligence
function. Therefore significant duration variations
are quite normal.
ON/STAND BY
This function turns On/Stand-by the freezer
compartments. To put the product in Stand-by,
press & hold the On/Stand-by button
for 3
seconds. When the appliance is in Stand-by, the light
inside the refrigerator compartment does not
work. Remember that this operation does not
disconnect the appliance from the power supply. To
switch the appliance On again, simply press and
hold for 3 seconds the On/Stand-By button
.
BLACK OUT ALARM
After a power blackout, your product is designed to
automatically monitor the temperature in the
freezer when electricity is resupplied. If the
temperature in the freezer rises above freezing
level, the Black Out indicator
turns on, the
Alarm indicator
blinks and the acoustical alarm
sounds when electricity is resupplied. To reset the
alarm press the Stop Alarm button
just once.
In case of Black Out Alarm, the following actions
are recommended:
•
If the food in the freezer is unfrozen but still
cold, all the food in the freezer should be eaten
within the next 24 hours.
• If the food in the freezer is frozen, this indicates
the food was thawed and then refrozen when
electricity was re-supplied which degrades taste,
quality and nutritional value and also could be
unsafe. It is recommended to not consume the
food but to dispose of the entire content of the
freezer. The Black Out Alarm is designed to
provide guidance on food quality in the freezer
in the event of electricity black out. This system
does not guarantee food quality or safety and
consumers are advised to use their own
judgment in evaluating food quality in freezer
compartment.
TEMPERATURE ALARM
The acoustic alarm sounds and temperature
indicator (°C) blinks. The alarm is activated when:
• The appliance is connected to the power supply
after prolonged disuse
• The freezer compartment temperature is too
high
• The quantity of foods loaded into the freezer
exceeds that indicated on the rating plate
• The freezer door has been left open for a long
time.
To mute the alarm buzzer press Stop Alarm button
just once. The Alarm indicator
is
automatically turned-off as soon as the freezer
compartment reaches a temperature below -10°C
and the temperature set indicator (°C) stop blinking
and shows the chosen setting.
NOTE:
The temperature alarm may even be
activated following prolonged opening of the door
or after fresh food products have been placed in
the freezing zone; the temporary increase in
temperature signaled does not affect the perfect
preservation of already frozen food.
SHOCK FREEZE
The "Shock Freeze" compartment is specifically
designed to freeze up to 2 kg of fresh food
extremely quickly.
The ultra-fast "Shock Freeze" function minimizes
the formation of ice crystals inside the food as it
freezes, thus ensuring it is of the best possible
quality when defrosted prior to consumption.
When the "Shock Freeze" function is not active, the
compartment can be used as normal for traditional
freezing or for the storage of already frozen foods.
NOTE:
When the Shock Freeze function is active
you may hear a humming sound.
This is absolutely normal and is caused by airflow
that permits optimum cold distribution inside
compartment.
Activating and deactivating the "Shock
Freeze" function:
1.
Make sure at least 12 hours have passed since
the last time the "Shock Freeze" function was
FREEZER USE
