Starting the appliance

! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation

instructions (see Installation).
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the

compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water

and bicarbonate.
! The appliance comes with a motor protection control

system which makes the compressor start approximately 8

minutes after being switched on. The compressor also

starts each time the power supply is cut off whether

voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).

1. Insert the plug into the socket and make sure that the

green POWER indicator light illuminates (the
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob must be in the

position).

2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an

average value and press the SUPER FREEZE button

(rapid freezing): the SUPER FREEZE indicator light

will illuminate. It will switch off once the freezer has

reached its optimal temperature. At this point food may

be placed inside the appliance.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Use the TEMPERATURE CONTROL knob to adjust the

temperature.

= warmest

= coldest

ECO is the optimal temperature for energy saving levels.

We recommend, however, a medium position.

• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has

already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked

and eaten (within 24 hours).

• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into

contact with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh

food must be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE

compartment.

• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and

which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer

because they could break.

• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is

indicated on the plate containing the technical properties

located within the freezer (for example: Kg/24h: 4).

• To freeze (if the freezer is already operating):

- for small quantities which are less than those indicated

on the data plate, press the rapid freezing SUPER

FREEZE button (corresponding indicator light

illuminates), insert the food and close the door. The

function is disabled automatically after 24 hours or when

optimal temperatures have been reached (indicator light

goes out);

- for large quantities which are greater than the maximum

load indicated on the data plate, hold down the rapid

freezing SUPER FREEZE button until the corresponding

indicator light begins to flash. After 24 hours the indicator

light stops flashing and remains on constantly. Place the

food inside the freezer and close the door. After another

24 hours, the function will be disabled automatically

(indicator light goes out).

! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the

freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature

inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for

at least 9 -14 hours.

Ice

ice tray

The fact that they are situated on the top part of the

freezer drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no

longer comes into contact with the food placed inside

the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of

the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the

hole after filling with water is also provided).

1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up.

Check that the tray is ompletely empty and fill it with

water through the opening provided.

2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX

WATER LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes

from dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to

melt and empty the tray).

3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments

each mould fills with water (see diagram).

4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the

tray back, placing the top part in the corresponding

housing and allowing it to drop in again.

5. When the ice has formed (minimum time

approximately 8 hours) knock the tray against a hard

surface and wet the outside so that the ice cubes

come loose and take them out through the opening.
