• C – the lever to drop the ice
  1. Pull the lever towards you and remove the ice maker tray A
  2. Fill with water to the marked level
  3. Hold the left end of the lever and set the ice-tray on the icebox
  4. When ice cubes have formed, twist the lever C to drop the ice cubes into the icebox B.
  5. Do not fill the icebox with water in order to make ice. It will break.

Placing the food

• The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food, for storing frozen foods for the period of time indicated on packaging and for making ice cubes..
• Do not put fresh and warm food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
• While freezing fresh foods (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in portions you will use in a single serving.
• For storing frozen foods, the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully. If no information is provided, food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• Maximum load: if you want to store large quantities of food and use the maximum net capacity of the freezer, you can remove all the sliding drawers but you should keep the upper shelf flaps. Thanks to this, it is possible to store bulky items directly on the shelves.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated..
• The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.

If you would use maximum freezing capacity of your freezer

• While freezing fresh foods, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label. (your refrigerator has the capacity to freeze 25 kg at 25°C ambient)
• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, activate Super Freeze (SF) mode 24 hours before placing fresh food into the freezer.
• After placing fresh food into the freezer, 24 hours is generally sufficient for freezing. ”Super Freeze” mode will be deactivated automatically in 2-3 days to save energy.

If you would freeze a small amount (up to 3 kg) in your freezer

• Place your food without touching already frozen food and activate “Fast Freezing” mode. You can put your food next to other frozen food after it is completely frozen (after minimum 24 hours).
• Do not re-freeze frozen food after it has thawed. This may cause health issues, such as food poisoning.
• Allow hot food to completely cool down before placing it in the freezer.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for about 10 hours at 25°C. Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten.

• Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
• Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
• Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, if your gasket is detachable, replace the gasket. If not detachable, you have to replace the door.

Information on No-Frost technology

• No-frost freezers differ from other static fridges in their operating principle.
• In normal freezers, the humidity entering the fridge in the door openings and the humidity of the food causes freezing in the freezer compartment. To defrost the snow and ice in the freezer compartment, you should turn off the fridge, take the food that needs to be kept in a constant temperature off the fridge, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer compartment periodically.
• The situation is completely different in no-frost freezers. Dry and cold air is bowed to the freezer homogeneously from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously even between the shelves cools all your food equally and uniformly, thus prevents humidity and freezing.

Replacing LED Lighting

Depending on the model, one LED strip in the freezer is used to illuminate the interior of your appliance. To replace any of the LEDs, please contact the nearest Authorized Service Centre.

TROUBLESHOOTING

YOUR FREEZER IS NOT OPERATING CHECK IF

• There is power

• The plug is correctly placed in the socket

• The plug fuse or the mains fuse has blown

• The socket is faulty. Examine this by plugging your freezer into a working socket. WHAT TO DO IF YOUR APPLIANCE PERFORMS POORLY CHECK THAT

• You have not overloaded the appliance,

• The freezer temperature set to -16,

• The doors are closed perfectly,

• There is no dust on the condenser,

• There is enough place at the rear and side walls.
  YOUR FREEZER IS OPERATING NOISILY

• Cracking (ice cracking) noise occurs: During automatic defrosting. When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).

• Short cracking noise occurs: When the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.

• Motor noise: Indicates the compressor is operating normally. The compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated.

• Bubbling noise and splash occurs: Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

• Water flowing noise occurs: Due to water flowing to the evaporation container. This noise is normal during defrosting.

• Air blowing noise occurs: In No-Frost freezers during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.

• There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing

• The door joints are broken or torn

• Your freezer is on a level surface.

THE EDGES OF THE FREEZER IN CONTACT WITH THE DOOR JOINT ARE WARM
Especially during summer (warm seasons), the surfaces in contact with the door joint may become warmer during the operation of the compressor, this is normal.

Important Notes

• In the case of a power failure, or if the appliance is unplugged and plugged in again, the gas in the cooling system of your freezer will destabilize, causing the compressor protective thermal element to open. Your freezer will start to operate normally after 5 min.
• If the appliance will not be used for a long period of time (such as during holidays), disconnect the plug. Defrost and clean the freezer, leaving the door open to prevent the formation of mildew and odour.
