OPERATION
SWITCHING ON
1. Insert the plug into the wall socket.
2. Turn the temperature regulator clockwise to a
medium setting.
SWITCHING OFF
To turn off the appliance, remove the plug from the
power socket.
TEMPERATURE REGULATION
The temperature is regulated automatically.
However, you can set a temperature inside the
appliance yourself.
Choose the setting keeping in mind that the
temperature inside the appliance depends on:
DAILY USE
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing
fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food
for a long time.
Store the fresh food evenly distributed in the first
and second compartment or drawer from the top.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen
without adding other fresh food during 24 hours is
specified on the rating plate (a label located inside
the appliance).
STORAGE OF FROZEN FOOD
When activating an appliance for the first time or
after a period out of use, before putting the
products in the compartment let the appliance run
at least 3 hours.
The freezer drawers ensure that it is quick and easy
to find the food package you want. If large
quantities of food are to be stored, remove all
drawers, except for the bottom drawer which needs
to be in place to provide good air circulation.
HINTS AND TIPS
HINTS FOR ENERGY SAVING
•
The internal configuration of the appliance is the
one that ensures the most efficient use of
energy.
•
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than necessary.
•
The colder the temperature setting, the higher
the energy consumption.
•
room temperature,
•
frequency of opening the door,
•
quantity of food stored,
•
appliance location.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable
one.
To operate the appliance:
1. Turn the temperature regulator clockwise to
obtain a lower temperature inside the
appliance.
2. Turn the temperature regulator
counterclockwise to obtain a higher
temperature inside the appliance.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from the door.
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 on rating
plate under "rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately then cooled and
then re-frozen.
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.
•
If the ambient temperature is high and the
temperature control is set to low temperature
and the appliance is fully loaded, the
compressor may run continuously, causing frost
or ice formation on the evaporator. In this case,
set the temperature control toward higher
temperature to allow automatic defrosting and
to save energy this way.
