This function turns On/Stand-by the freezer compartments.
To put the product in Stand-by, press & hold the C button for 3 seconds. When the appliance is in Stand-by, the light inside the freezer compartment does not work. Remember that this operation does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply. To switch the appliance On again, simply press the On/ Stand-By button.
Note: this procedure does not disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Temperature display B
The display shows the freezer compartment temperature (between -16°C and -24°C). Recommended setting: -18°C or -20° It is possible to set a different temperature with the H button.
Fast Freeze D
The use of this function is recommended when placing a very high quantity of food to be frozen in the freezer compartment. 24 hours before freezing fresh food, press the Fast Freeze button to activate the Fast Freeze function. When activated, the Fast Freeze indicator turns on. After 24 hours place the food to be frozen in the freezing zone of the freezer compartment.
The function is automatically disabled after 50 hours or can be manually disabled by pressing the Fast Freeze button.
Eco function E
The Eco function enables appliance energy consumption to be concentrated in the reduced rate hours (generally at night), when electricity is readily available and costs less than during the daytime (only in countries that utilize a time-based multirate system – check energy
rates with the local electricity company).

To activate the function, press E for 3 seconds at the reduced rate start time (depending on the specific rates plan). For example, if the reduced rate starts at 8 p.m., press the button E at that time. When the Eco indicator is ON, the function is ON. Once the function is activated, the appliance automatically adapts energy consumption according to the time selected, i.e. consuming less energy during the day than at night.
IMPORTANT: To operate properly, the function must be on during the night and day. The function remains on until deactivated (or it is deactivated in case of a power failure or appliance switch-off). To deactivate the function, press the button again. When the Eco indicator is OFF, the function is OFF.
Note: The declared appliance energy consumption refers to operation with the Eco Night function deactivated.

Black Out alarm F
After a power blackout, your product is designed to automatically monitor the temperature in the freezer when electricity is resupplied. If the temperature in the freezer rises above freezing level, the Black Out indicator turns on, the Alarm indicator blinks and the acoustical alarm sounds when electricity is resupplied.
To reset the alarm press the Stop Alarm button just once. In the case of Black Out Alarm, the following actions are recommended:

• If the food in the freezer is unfrozen but still cold, all the food in the freezer should be eaten within the next 24 hours.
•  If the food in the freezer is frozen, this indicates the food was thawed and then refrozen when electricity was re-supplied which degrades taste, quality, and nutritional value and also could be unsafe. It is recommended to not consume the food but to dispose of the entire content of the freezer. The Black Out Alarm is designed to provide guidance on food quality in the freezer in the event of an electricity blackout. This system does not guarantee food quality or safety and consumers are advised to use their own judgment in evaluating food quality in the freezer compartment.

Turning Off the sound alarm
To mute the alarm buzzer press the Stop Alarm button just once

Operation of the freezer
The freezer is the ideal storage location for storing frozen food, making ice cubes, and freezing fresh food in the freezer compartment.
The maximum number of kilograms of fresh food that can be frozen within a 24-hour period is indicated on the rating plate (…kg/12h).
If you have a little quantity of food to store in the freezer, we recommend using the coldest areas of your freezer compartment, corresponding to the upper or the middle area The freezer can operate at ambient temperatures between +10°C and +32°C. Optimal performance is obtained at temperatures between +16°C and +32°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
The Alarm icon lights up blinking and the acoustic alarm sounds.
The alarm is activated when the door is left open for more than 2 minutes. To disengage the door alarm close the door, or press once Stop Alarm button G to mute the acoustic alarm.

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.

Tips for freezing and storing fresh food

• Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in aluminum foil, cling film, air, and water-tight plastic bags, polythene containers with lids, or freezer containers suitable for freezing fresh food.
• Food 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, color, and flavor.
  Some meat, especially the game, should be hung before it is frozen.

Note:

• Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the freezer.

• Eat 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.

•  Do not freeze bottles with liquid.

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 it.
Note: Do not block the air outlet area (on the back wall inside the product) with food products. If the freezer is provided with a flap, it is possible to maximize the storage volume by removing the flap. All shelves, flaps, and pull-out baskets are removable.
The internal temperatures of the appliance may be affected by the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature settings should take into consideration these factors.
Unless otherwise specified the appliance accessories are not dishwasher safe.

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.

Fig. 1

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 the 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 aluminum foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food that 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 a 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 food store 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 mold and bad odors.

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.
