This appliance is designed ONLY for domestic conservation of foodstuffs.

Installation must be as instructed in this guide. Incorrect installation could damage the appliance.

For any operating problems, always and only contact authorised After Sales Service centres, or qualified personnel.

Before carrying out any maintenance, disconnect the appliance, but not by pulling on the power supply cable.

If this freezer replaces another, which had a latching, spring-mounted, locking or other closure system, do not forget to destroy the closure device or better yet remove the door of your old freezer, so that no-one could become trapped inside (children playing, animals, etc.).

RECOMMENDATIONS

After unpacking the appliance, make sure that it is undamaged. If it is, the reseller should be notified of any damage within 24 hours of delivery. The packaging materials used are entirely recyclable (cardboard, PE bubble wrap, EPS, etc.). Keep these materials out of the reach of children.

For optimum operation of the appliance, install it away from sources of heat and make sure that air can circulate freely around it (see appliance installation).

The appliance's cooling circuit contains a coolant called isobutane, a relatively clean natural gas which is nonetheless flammable. During transport and installation of the appliance, make sure that none of the components of the cooling circuit is damaged. In the event of damage, keep away from flames and ignition sources, and ventilate the room well.

INSTALLATION

Before installing, carefully read the Recommendations and Safety standards in order to avoid a certain number of problems.

If you want to move your freezer, hold it by the sides or by the base. You should never lift it by its top.

Install the appliance in a dry, well-ventilated room, away from all sources of heat. Leave a minimum gap of 10 cm between the top of the freezer and any wall-mounted kitchen units. If this is impossible, leave 5 cm above the appliance and 2.5 cm on each side of the appliance.

Make sure that the air vents on your freezer are not covered or blocked.

The climate class of your freezer is marked on its ID plate. It determines the range of ambient temperatures for which the cooling unit is designed, and within which correct operation of the appliance is guaranteed.

Class	Ambient temperatures
N	16° to 32°
ST	18° to 38°
T	18° to 43°

Electrical connection

• Connector characteristics: 220-230V with earth.
• Avoid using adapters or extension leads.
• Avoid the cable coming into contact with the compressor.
• Avoid trapping the cable under the appliance.

The appliance's electrical installation is earthed. For your safety, connect the appliance to a power outlet with effective earthing (in conformity with current electrical installation safety standards).

The manufacture declines all liability for damage caused by the absence of an earth connection.

CAUTION - BEFORE CONNECTING

1. Clean the inside of the freezer with warm water containing bicarbonate of soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
2. Wait for 2 hours before switching on, to ensure that the lubricants in the motor compressor have stabilised.

REVERSING THE DOOR OPENING DIRECTION

You can reverse the direction of opening of the door (left instead of right):

The appliance must always be disconnected when you change the door opening direction.

1. Remove the top of the fridge: remove the 2 screw covers on the top, remove the 2 screws and slide the top forwards.
2. Slightly tilt the appliance towards the rear and wedge it in this position.
3. Unscrew the screws from the door upper hinge and remove the hinge support and pin.

4. Slightly open the door and extract it from its lower hinge.

5. Unscrew the lower pin and screw it in on the opposite side. Insert the door in the pin and close it.

6. Firmly screw the upper hinge to the opposite side and the door pin. Fit the fridge top (carry out point 1 in reverse).

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Note: your freezer may differ slightly from this picture.

USING THE FREEZER

This appliance is designed to conserve frozen foods, to freeze fresh food and to make ice-cubes.

Do not freeze a large quantity of food at any one time (maximum of 4kg / 24h ), as the faster an item is frozen, the more it will keep its qualities. Similarly, make sure that you wrap your foodstuffs before freezing, so that they retain their full flavour and do not spoil the other products.

The conservation time for frozen foods depends on the type of food. Refer to the instructions on the packaging.

Never place hot foods in your freezer. Never place bottles or drinks cans in it either, as they can burst when their contents freeze.

Highly carbonated drinks can even explode! NEVER keep lemonade, fruit juice, beer, wine, champagne, etc... in the freezer compartment.

DEFROSTING

The freezer defrosting system is manual. You can from time to time remove the layer of ice that forms, using a scraper or other plastic instrument.

NEVER USE A METAL INSTRUMENT OR ELECTRICAL DEVICE TO DEFROST THE APPLIANCE.

The freezer must always be de-iced when the layer of frost reaches a thickness of about 4 mm. In any case, this compartment should be de-iced at least once a year:

1. Switch off and disconnect the freezer.
2. Remove the ice with a plastic scraper. Defrosting can be made quicker by placing bowls of hot water in the freezer and closing the door.
3. Once defrosting is completed, you can then clean your appliance.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the freezer before cleaning it.

Clean the inside with water plus bicarbonate of soda, using a sponge or cloth. This will prevent the build-up of unpleasant odours.

Never use a steam cleaner, solvent or abrasive detergent, as they could damage the interior of your appliance. Never wash the interior accessories in the dishwasher.

We recommend that you wipe the back of the appliance once a year with a cloth over the back of the appliance once a year, as if it is dirty, its efficiency drops and its energy consumption rises.

OPERATING PROBLEMS

The freezer creates a number of noises that are perfectly normal:

• The coolant gas can create a gurgling sound as it circulates through the system.
  The compressor can rumble, a sound which can be more intense when it starts up.
• Sharp cracking sounds produced by expansion and contraction of the materials used.

PROBLEM	SOLUTION
The freezer does not operate	Check that it is properly plugged in, that the fuse has not blown or that the circuit-breaker has not tripped.
The freezer is too warm	Check the thermostat and make sure that the door stays open as little as possible. Also check that the door closes properly.
The motor runs continuously	Make sure that the freezer is well ventilated, leaving gaps as mentioned in the "Installation" chapter. Also check that your appliance is not exposed to a direct source of heat. You may also have placed too much food inside or the door may not close properly.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICE

If you have carried out the above checks, and your problem persists, ATTEMPT NO REPAIRS YOURSELF. Contact the nearest Technical Assistance Service.
