Using the freezer
Before use
Frozen food storage
When first starting-up or after a period out of use,
before putting the products in the compartment let
the appliance run for at least 12 hours.
Remove all securing tapes.Wash inside the appliance
with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml
to 0.5 litre of water).
Do not use soap or detergent as the smell
may linger. Dry thoroughly.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
if large quantities of food are to be stored, remove
all drawers and baskets (except for the last one at
the bottom) and place food on cooling shelves.
The freezer has the symbol
which
means that it is suitable for freezing fresh
food and for long term storage of frozen and
deep-frozen food.
Pay careful attention not to exceed the load limit
stated on the side of the upper section (where
applicable).
The temperature may be regulated between -15°C
and -24°C.
We suggest setting the internal temperature to
approximately -18°C, which guarantees proper
freezing and conservation of the frozen foods.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Attention!
Warning
Following first start up, the temperature displayed
can not correspond to the set temperature. During
this time it is possible that the temperature
displayed is different from the actual temperature.
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin
burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or “frost/freezer burns”.
Attention!
A difference between the temperature displayed and
the actual temperature is normal. Especially when:
•
•
•
A new setting has recently been selected
The door has been left open for a long time
Warm food has been placed in the compartment
Important
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer
will not be affected if the power cut is short and if
the freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the
food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly
and must not be re-frozen .
A difference of 5°C inside the compartment is quite
normal.
During normal functioning the indicator shows the
warmest temperature inside the compartment.
9
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in a compartment
(for example due to a power failure)
is indicated by:
Making ice cubes
The appliance is supplied with one ice tray.
Fill the tray 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand
and place it in the freezer.
•
Flashing temperature;
To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist.
•
•

;
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the ice tray from the freezer.
When normal conditions are restored:
•
•
The acoustic signal shuts off;
Cold accumulators
The temperature value continues to flash;
2 cold accumulators are supplied in the freezer;
these increase the length of time for which food will
keep in the event of a power failure or breakdown.
They must be placed in the top drawer.
When you press key "E" to de-activate the alarm,
the highest temperature reached appears on display
for a few seconds. It then returns to the
normal operation showing the selected
temperature.
During the alarm phase, the buzzer can be switched
off by pressing key E.

Hints and tips
Food storage
•
In the event of a power
failure
If there is a power failure during the storage of
frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the
temperature within your freezer should rise do not
refreeze the food without checking it’s condition.
The following guidelines should assist you.
Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated
and labelled and used in date order to ensure
that food is consumed at its best.
•
Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it
straight away.The use of an insulated container is
advisable.When you arrive home place the
frozen food in the freezer immediately.
•
The symbols on the drawers show different
types of frozen goods.The numbers indicate
storage times in months for the appropriate
types of frozen goods.Whether the upper or
lower value of the indicated storage time is valid
depends on the quality of the foods and pre-
treating before freezing.
Ice Cream:
Once thawed should be discarded.
Fruit andVegetables:
If soft should be cooked and used up.
Bread and Cakes:
Can be refrozen without danger.
Shellfish:
Should be refrigerated and used up quickly.
Cooked Dishes:
i.e. casseroles, should be refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat:
Energy saving advice
•
Do not install the cabinet close to sources of
heat, i.e. boiler or radiator.
Can be re-frozen providing there are ice crystals
remaining within them.
Small Joints:
Should be cooked and used up quickly.
Chicken:
Should be cooked and re-frozen as a fresh dish.
•
Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and make sure that the air openings of the
cabinet are not obstructed.
•
Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages
before placing them in the freezer.
•
•
Always leave warm food to cool down to room
temperature before placing in the freezer.
Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should
be placed in the fridge before being transferred
to the freezer.
•
•
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
door from closing properly.
