BEFORE FIRST USE

WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

Before using the appliance for the first time, the interior and all internal accessories should be washed with lukewarm water and some neutral soap to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dried thoroughly.

1. Press SET button repeatedly until you reach the desired temperature.
   MAX setting is the coldest one.
2. The temperature sets 5 seconds after the last press.

The exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends on:

• room temperature
  how often the lid is opened
  the quantity of food stored
  the location of the appliance.

SUPER FUNCTION

The SUPER function accelerates the freezing of fresh food and, at the same time, protects already stored foodstuffs from undesired warming.

To activate the function:

1. Press SET button repeatedly until the SUPER indicator lights up.
2. The function sets 5 seconds after the last press.

The SUPER function stops automatically after 52 hours and the temperature goes back to the previous setting.

You can stop the function manually before that time, by pressing the SET button and setting the desired temperature.

RUNNING INDICATOR

This indicator is on when the compressor operates and it turns off when the compressor stops working.

CAUTION! Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, chlorine or oil-based cleaners as they will damage the finish.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

When you connect the appliance to the power supply, or it turns on after a power failure all indicator lights flash once. Then the appliance returns to the previous setting.

WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

FREEZING FRESH FOOD

The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.

The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate (refer to "Technical data").

Start the SUPER function 24 hours before placing food in the appliance.

The freezing process lasts 24 hours, during this period do not add other food to be frozen.

STORAGE OF FROZEN FOOD

When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance run at least 24 hours on the higher settings.

HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

HINTS FOR FREEZING

To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some hints:

• The maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.

Start the SUPER function 24 hours before placing food in the appliance.

• The freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this period.
• Freeze only top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned foodstuffs.
  Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required.
• Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight.

You can remove the basket to get more storage space.

CAUTION! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after cooling).

THAWING

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.

• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter.
• Lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food.
  Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.
  It is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.

HINTS FOR STORAGE OF FROZEN FOOD

To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:

make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
- be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the store to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
not open the lid frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
- Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
- Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.

HINTS FOR ENERGY SAVING

Medium temperature setting preserves frozen foods while saving energy.
- Frozen Compartment (Freezer): The internal configuration of the appliance is the one that ensures the most efficient use of energy.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
