INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
• Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room
far away from any heat source (e.g. radiator,
cooker, etc.) and in a place not exposed directly to
the sun. If required, use an insulating plate.
• To guarantee adequate ventilation follow
installation instructions.
• Insufficient ventilation on back of the product
increases energy consumption and decreases
cooling efficiency.
• 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 setting should take into
consideration these factors.
• Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
• After placing the food check if the door of
compartments closes properly, especially the
freezer door.
• Reduce to a minimum door opening.
• When thawing frozen food, place them in the
refrigerator. The low temperature of the frozen
products cools the food in the refrigerator.
• Damaged gasket must be replaced as soon as
possible.
• High energy class products are fitted with high
efficiency motors that remain operational for longer,
but have a low power consumption. Do not worry if
the engine continues to run for longer periods.
DESCRIPTION AND USE
DIAGRAM OF THE APPLIANCE (Fig. 1)
1. Lid handle.
2. Lock (if provided).
3. Seal.
4. Defrost water drain plug (depending on model).
5. Control panel.
6. Basket (depending on model).
7. Condenser (located at the rear).
INSTALLATION
• Refer to chapter “Before using the appliance”.
• Unpack the appliance.
• Remove the 4 protection pieces inserted
between lid and appliance (Fig 3).
• Warning: two of the four protection pieces must
be fitted in the seat of the condenser plastic
supports, located at the rear of the product
(Fig. 3).
This is necessary to ensure the correct distance from
the wall.
• Ensure that the defrosting water drainage plug (if
provided) is correctly positioned (4).
• For best operation of the appliance and in order to
avoid damage when the lid is opened, leave a space
of at least 7 cm from the rear wall and 7 cm at the
sides.
• Fit the accessories (if provided).
DIAGRAM OF THE CONTROL PANEL (Fig. 2)
a. Red LED: when flashing, it indicates that an alarm
condition is present see TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE"
b. Green LEDS: they indicate that the appliance is in
operation, and the temperature has been set as
follows:
Optimum less cold temperature (right light on), use
this setting with partial loads will optimize energy
consumption.
Normal middle temperature (center light on)
MAX very cold temperature (left light on)
ALL Green LEDs ON: FAST FREEZING function is
active; see the section “freezing fresh food”.
c. Temperature setting button: to adjust the set
temperature and to activate/deactivate the fast
freezing operations.
To select the desired temperature, repeatedly press
the setting button (3): each time the button is pressed,
the set temperature is updated.
To activate/deactivate fast freezing function, pressing
for approximately 3 seconds: all green LEDs flash
simultaneously 3 times and then remain lit.
Note:
The settings will be saved in the memory even if a
power cut occurs. The time needed for the
temperature inside the freezer to reach the set value,
can vary depending on climatic conditions and the set
temperature itself.
