flammable gas.
The most appropriate compartments of the appliance where specific types of food are to be stored, taking into account different temperature distribution in different compartments in the appliance, are as follows: 4 star zone (****) compartment is suitable for freezing foodstuffs from ambient temperature and for storing frozen food as the temperature is evenly distributed throughout the entire compartment. Purchased frozen food has the storage expiration date stated on the packaging.
This date takes into account the type of food being stored and therefore this
date should be respected. Fresh food should be stored for the following time
periods: 1-3 months for cheese, shellfish, ice cream, ham/sausage, milk, fresh
liquids; 4 months for steak or chops (beef, lamb, pork); 6 months for butter
or margarine, poultry (chicken, turkey); 8-12 months for fruits (except
citrus), roast meat (beef, pork, lamb), vegetables. Expiration dates on the
packaging of foods in the 2-star zone must be respected.
To avoid food contamination, please observe the following:
- Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
- Regularly clean surfaces that may come into contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
- Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48 h; flush the water system connected to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.
- Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it does not come into contact with or drip onto other food.
- Do not freeze fresh food in one, two or three-star compartments.
- If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door open to prevent mould developing inside the appliance.

First Use
Connect the appliance to the mains power supply. The ideal temperatures for
preserving food have already been set at the factory.
To avoid food waste, please refer to the recommended setting and storage times
found in the user manual.
Note: After switching the appliance on, it will be necessary to wait for 4 to 5 hours before a temperature suitable for a standard appliance load is reached.
Daily use
The freezer can be used for storing already frozen food and for freezing fresh
food. The amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is
indicated on the appliance data plate. The freezer can operate at ambient
temperatures between +10°C and +32°C. Optimal performance is obtained at
temperatures between +10°C and +43°C.
Switching on the freezer for the first time
- There is no need to set the freezer temperature on the thermostat because the appliance is already factory set.
- Plug in the appliance. The green LED (indicating that the appliance is ON) and the red LED will light up, and on some models also the acoustic alarm (if provided) will sound after about 1 minute, indicating that the freezer has not yet reached a sufficiently cold temperature for storage of foodstuffs.
- To mute the acoustic alarm press the door switch.
Adjusting the thermostat
Select the freezer compartment temperature Ambient air temperature, the
frequency of door opening and the amount of food to freeze can affect the
freezer temperature adjustments. We therefore recommend starting with a medium
temperature.
Door alarm
If the door will be left open for more then 2 minute the alarm ring.
Close the door or press for few seconds the botton F .
Freeze operation
The recommended amount of food to be frozen is indicated on the data plate on
the inside of the appliance. When putting food in to freeze, the ideal
temperature is reached.
Arrange the fresh food in the freezing area, leaving enough space around it to
allow air to circulate freely. Avoid fresh food to come into direct contact
with frozen food
Tips for freezing and storing fresh food
- Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in: aluminium foil, plastic wrap, cling film, polyethylene containers with lids, and other containers provided they are suitable for freezing foods.
- Foodstuffs (except meat, see below) must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in order to obtain high quality frozen food.
- Fresh vegetables and fruit should preferably be frozen as soon as they are picked to maintain the full original nutritional value, consistency, colour and flavour.
Some meat, especially game, should be hung before it is frozen.
Note:
- Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the freezer.
- Use fully or partially defrosted foods immediately. Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it has thawed. Once cooked, the thawed food can be refrozen.
Freezing and storing fresh food
- Place foods to be frozen in the two upper baskets.
- When the freezer is used without the rack, place the ice packs above the food to be frozen at the front of the top drawer.
- Load limits are determined by baskets, flaps, drawers, shelves etc. Make sure that these components can still close easily after loading
Removing the baskets
Pull the drawers out as far as they go, then lift slightly and remove.
Pull the lower basket out fully, then rotate it slightly in order to remove.
Note: The freezer can also be used without the upper drawers, in order to
maximise space. For correct operation of the freezer compartment the bottom
drawer should not be removed.
Ensure that after placing the food on the racks, the freezer door closes
properly.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice cube tray up to 2/3 with water and place in the freezer
compartment.
Do not use sharp or pointed objects to detach the tray.
Helpful hints and tips
Cleaning and maintenance
Regularly clean the appliance with a cloth and a solution of hot water and
neutral detergent specifically formulated for refrigerator interiors. Do not
use abrasive cleaners or tools. Use the tool provided to regularly clean the
defrost water drain outlet, located on the rear wall of the refrigerator
compartment near the crisper draw, in order to ensure defrost water is removed
correctly (see Fig. 1).
Before servicing or cleaning the appliance, unplug it from the mains or disconnect the power supply
The push in gasket allows it to be cleaned easily, simply removing it from its place, starting from the upper corner part as shown, and then reinserting it using the reverse procedure used to remove it.
Hints for energy saving
- Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
- Do not set temperature any colder than necessary.
- Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base and at the back wall of the appliance. Never cover air vent openings.
Do not place warm foods into the appliance. Allow warm foods to cool first.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some hints:
- The maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.
- The freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this period.
- Freeze only top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned foodstuffs.
- Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required.
- Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight.
- Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter.
- Lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food.
- Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.
- It is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:
- Make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer.
- Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time.
- Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
- Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
- Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.
Defrosting the freezer
The freezer compartment is frost free. This means that there is no build up of
frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls nor on the food.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous circulation of cold air inside
the compartment, driven by an automatically controlled fan.
If the appliance is not going to be used
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply, remove all the food and clean.
Leave the doors open enough for air to circulate inside the compartments. This
will prevent the formation of mould and bad odours.
In case of power failures
Keep the doors of the appliance closed. In this way the stored food will stay
cold as long as possible. Do not refreeze partially thawed food, consume it
within 24 hours.
