NOTICE
After transport stand the appliance upright and wait
at least 3 hours before plugging the appliance into the
mains to ensure proper performance.
Use average temperature settings to ensure optimum
performance and to save energy.
Once the appliance is connected to the mains, the green "A"
and the red "D" lights will come on. Turn the "C" knob to
the Fast Freeze setting (the yellow "B" light will come on).
When the red "D" light turns off, turn the "C" knob to one
of the normal settings. .
At this point, the freezer is ready for use.
GETTING YOUR APPLIANCE READY FOR USE
How to use your freezer
Tips on Freezing
- Remember that you should never refreeze products you have
allowed to thaw, even if only partially. Once thawed, cook
the food, then either eat (within 24 hours) or refreeze it
- Consult a specialized manual when packaging foods for
freezing.
- For the best storage and thawing, remember to freeze
small portions. This will ensure rapid and uniform freezing.
Mark package with a description of the contents and the
date it was frozen.
- Freeze only the quantities (in kg) shown on the data plate
on the inside of the freezer.
- Turn the "C" knob to the Fast Freeze setting (the yellow
"B" light will come on).
- Place the fresh food that is being frozen into the top com-
partments (F), making sure not to place them near food
that has already been frozen, but preferably in contact with
the cooling surfaces. In fact, proper food storage depends
on the speed at which the fresh food is frozen. For this
reason, we suggest that the temperature knob be placed
on the Fast Freeze setting 24 hours before fresh food is
placed in the appliance to be frozen. This operation is
necessary for large quantities of food (up to the maxi-
mum capacity indicated on the data plate).
- During the freezing process, avoid opening the door of
the freezer.
- Placing substantial amounts of fresh food in the appliance
may temporarily raise the temperature within the freezer
(the red light will turn on). Since this is a temporary situa-
tion, it will not compromise the storage of the food that
has already been frozen.
- After 24 hours have passed and the fresh food has been
frozen, turn the "C" knob back to one of the normal set-
tings.
Attention: Do not forget to change the temperature set-
ting if you want to avoid useless wastes of energy.
- In the case of power failure or breakdown, do not open
the freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at
least 20 hours.
- Do not place full bottles in the freezer because liquids
increase in volume when they freeze and this could cause
the bottles to burst.
- Fill the ice cube trays three-quarters of the way full.
Storage
Follow the instructions on the packages of frozen foods scrupu-
lously. If none are provided, do not store the food for more than 3
months from the date of purchase.
When purchasing frozen foods, make sure that they have been
stored at the proper temperature and that the package is properly
sealed. When purchasing frozen foods, it is best to transport them
in appropriate containers to keep them cold and then place them
in the freezer immediately.
If the package is damp on the outside or is abnormally swollen, it
is likely that the package was stored at an inadequate tempera-
ture and the food has deteriorated.
