DAILY USE
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
The freezer compartments (indicated with
graphics) are suitable for freezing fresh
food and storing frozen and deep-frozen
food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the SUPER
Quick Freeze function.
The maximum amount of food that can be
frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rat-ing plate, a label located on the inside of
the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during
this period do not add other food to be frozen.
STORAGE OF FROZEN FOOD
When first starting-up or after a period out
of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least
2 hours on the higher settings.
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power
failure, if the power has been off for
longer than the value shown in the
technical characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted food
must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately and then refrozen (after cooling).
THAWING
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed at room temperature.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case,
cooking will take longer.
HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
ENGLISH11
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing. This is
correct.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped around and you will
hear a whirring sound and a pulsating
noise from the compressor. This is correct.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a
sudden cracking noise. It is natural, not
dangerous physical phenomenon. This is
correct.
• When the compressor switches on or
switches off, you will hear a faint "click"
of the temperature regulator. This is correct.
HINTS FOR FREEZING
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can
be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No
further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
• only freeze 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;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer
in the shortest possible time;
• 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.

CARE AND CLEANING
CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.
PERIODIC CLEANING
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed cleaning
products or wax polishes to clean
the interior as this will damage the
surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush. This operation will improve
the performance of the appliance and save
electricity consumption.
Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason it is recommended that the outer
casing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to
the mains supply.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous circulation of cold air inside the compartment, driven by an automatically controlled fan.
NO-FROST TECHNOLOGY
In order to facilitate the removal of the ice
layer, the evaporator is assisted by electric
heating during the defrosting procedure.
The ventilator is in OFF position. The defrost water will drip in the tray placed at the
compressor and will evaporate. In the
course of the defrosting procedure (approx.
30 minutes) the evaporator becomes warm
but it has no influence on the internal temperature.
The foods should be kept well-packed in
order to avoid any moisture loss as a result
of air circulation.
Do not obstruct the vent holes.
It is recommended to put all foods in the
baskets in the freezer compartment.
PERIODS OF NON-OPERATION
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1.
disconnect the appliance from electricity supply
2.
remove all food
3.
clean the appliance and all accessories
4.
leave the lid open to prevent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a
while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a power
failure.
DEFROSTING OF THE FREEZER
The freezer compartment of this model, on
the other hand, is a "no frost" type. This
means that there is no buildup of frost
when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls nor on the foods.
