Installation And Connection

Choosing the site

• Always place the freezer in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to direct sunlight or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class, the appliance can be used in different temperature conditions:
  Class| Ambient temperature
  ---|---
  SN (Subnormal)| from +10°C to +32°C
  N (Normal)| from + 16° C to + 32° C
  ST (Subtropical)| from + 18° C to + 38° C
  T (Tropical)| from + 18° C to + 43° C
• Never place the freezer close to heat sources. If this is unavoidable, a suitable insulating panel must be used to allow the appliance to function properly. Otherwise, place the appliance at least 3 cm from electric or gas cookers and at least 30 cm from combustion or radiation heating systems.
• To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the freezer must not be placed too close to the wall. If the refrigerator is installed underneath a wall cupboard, the distance between the two must be at least 10 cm.
• Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the appliance on parquet or linoleum. If necessary, when positioning slide the refrigerator over pieces of wood or a mat to the point decided for connection to the electrical mains.

Positioning and levelling the appliance

Place the freezer on a stable and level floor. In case the floor is not perfectly level, use the two adjustable feet on the front part of the freezer. To ensure major stability, easier movement and a correct positioning of the product, two additional wheels are present at the rear. In any case we recommend moving the fridge very carefully in order to avoid floor damage (especially in case of wooden floor).

Electrical connection

Before switching the freezer on for the first time, leave it vertical for at least two hours. Then connect the appliance’s power supply plug to a mains socket with earth contact, installed in accordance with electrical safety regulations. The rated voltage and frequency are stated on the nameplate on back of the freezer. The appliance must be connected to the electrical mains and earthed in compliance with the relevant regulations and requirements. The appliance is able to withstand short fluctuations in voltage of no more than 15% less or 10% more than the rated voltage stated on the nameplate. If the power supply lead has to be replaced, this operation must only be carried out by a qualified technician. The socket must be accessible after the appliance has been placed.

Before using for the first time

• Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials completely, including the adhesive strips.
• Before it is connected to the mains, the unit must be thoroughly checked for transport damage, including its power cord.
• Clean the unit as described in the section Maintenance and cleaning.
• To ensure proper functioning, wait for about two hours before connecting the unit and switching it on after it has been positioned.
• When the unit is first switched on, a slight ‘new’ smell may be noticed. However, this will disappear once the cooling process has begun.

Setting And Selecting The Freezer Operating Temperature

Operating for the first time

• When operating under normal conditions and unloaded, auto mode usually stops at the required temperature in 2 or 3 hours.
• Then set the thermostat to the required setting for the freezer conditions.

Temperature control (Thermostat)

Caution : When the thermostat is turned clockwise to position “4”, do not attempt to turn it further or it will be damaged.

• The temperature in the freezer is controlled by the thermostat control regulator in the upper side of freezer. Turn the thermostat control regulator to regulate the temperature inside the freezer. Use a wide flat bladed screwdriver or coin to adjust the temperature.
  The markings on control regulator indicated “OFF, 1, 2, 3 and 4” for the different temperature grades.

• The closer the knob is set to position “3”, the lower the temperature. A medium setting is the most suitable for general operations.

• Position “4” is colder than the position “1”. The freezer temperature will vary depending on the quantity of food stored and the frequency of door opening.

Important : In order to maintain good cooling efficiency and save energy, we recommend you do not store too much food inside and do not open the door too frequently.

Freezing foods

• For proper storage and freezing, fruit and vegetables should be packed in portions of not more than 1 kg and meat and fish up to a max. of 2kg. Small packages of food freeze more quickly, giving better conservation of their nutrients and flavour, even after thawing and preparation.
• Use only freezer bags, aluminium film, food-approved polyethylene film and freezer containers. Do not use paper bags, non-food-approved cellophane bags, shopping bags or used freezer bags.
• Pack foods in airtight packs and try to expel all the air. If using bags, close the packs with the elastic bands or plastic-coated wire strips provided.
• Always cool hot foods to room temperature before placing them in the freezer and do not allow frozen foods to touch fresh foods for freezing.
• Always mark packs with the date of freezing, quantity and type of food and make sure that foods are fresh and in good condition.

Storing frozen foods

• When purchasing frozen foods, always take care that the pack is not damaged, that the product is not past its sell-by date and that the thermometer of the freezer in which the products are displayed for sale does not show a temperature above -18°C. Also note the temperature advice, storage period and modes of consumption stated by the producer.
• Purchased foods should also be protected using suitable insulated containers during transportation to eliminate the risk of thawing. An increase in temperature might reduce their storage life and adversely affect their quality.
• Do not purchase frozen foods which are carrying too much frost; they might already have been thawed.

Thawing frozen foods

• Partially thawed foods should be eaten as soon as possible. Low temperatures preserve foods, but they do not destroy the micro-organisms which are activated after thawing, which may cause the stored foods to deteriorate. If thawed foods smell and look normal, they can be cooked and if required re-frozen once they have cooled.
• Depending on their type and intended use, frozen foods can be thawed correctly at room temperature, in the refrigerator, in an electric oven (conventional or fan), or in a microwave oven using the relevant function.

Maintenance And Cleaning

Defrosting the freezer

The freezer compartment has to be defrosted manually. When the thickness of frost or ice on the shelves exceeds 2 cm, the freezer should be defrosted. A few hours before defrosting, set the thermostat on position 4 in order to further lower the temperature of the frozen foods. Then turn the knob to the OFF (stop) setting and disconnect the plug from the electrical mains.
Remove the frozen foods from the freezer compartment and protect them from thawing while cleaning.

Cleaning

• Before cleaning, disconnect the plug from the electrical mains. Clean the outside using only water and a gentle liquid detergent or an ordinary detergent for washable surfaces (such as a window-cleaning product). Never use products containing abrasives or substances which may attack the lacquered or painted parts, acids or chemical solvents. Use a sponge or a soft cloth.
• Do not use steam cleaners to clean the inside; we recommend the use of specific cleaning products.
• Clean the gaskets with warm water and then dry.
• To allow the freezer to operate at full efficiency, periodically also clean the condenser on the rear with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
• Also make a periodic check on the tray above the compressor and clean it if necessary.

Practical Advice For Saving Energy

• Install the freezer in a cool, well-ventilated place, protected against direct sunlight and well away from heat sources.
• Do not place hot foods in the freezer sections. Wait for foods to cool to room temperature before placing them on the shelves;
• Open the door(s) as infrequently and for as short a time as possible to prevent the compartments from warming up too much;
• Clean the condenser (rear of the freezer) periodically to prevent the appliance from losing efficiency;
• If the freezer is to be out of use for a long period, it is best to empty it and switch it off.

Operating Noise

• The freezer is cooled by means of a compression system. In order to maintain the preset temperature inside the freezer sections, the compressor comes into operation in response to the level of cooling required and may operate continuously if necessary. When the compressor starts up a humming sound will be heard, tending to drop in volume after a few minutes.
• Another normal refrigerator operating noise is a gurgling due to the coolant flowing through the pipes in the circuit. This noise is perfectly normal and does not mean that the appliance is malfunctioning. If it is over-loud, there may be other causes. In this case, check that:
  – the freezer is properly levelled on the floor and does not vibrate when the compressor is in operation: adjust the feet provided as appropriate;
  – The drawers and shelves are correctly fitted and securely in place: fit correctly.

Troubleshooting Guide

The appliance is not working.
Check that

• the switch in your home installation fuse box is switched on.
• the wall socket is working. This can be done by connecting another electrical device to the socket and checking for function.

The unit seems to generate insufficient cooling power.
Check whether

• too much food has been stored in the unit.
• the thermostat is set to position 1 (in this case, set it to a suitable higher value).
• the door is not properly closed.
