The display shows the refrigerator compartment temperature between 2°C and 8° C (See Control Panel, Refrigerator temperature digits 1) and the temperature of the freezer compartment between -16°C and -24°C (See Control Panel, Freezer temperature digits 4).
To avoid food waste, please refer to the recommended setting and storage times found in the online user manual.
FAST FREEZE
This function is recommended for freezing fresh food. Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible, for the best possible preservation and for keeping its nutritional value. Press the Fast Freeze button (11) for 3 seconds when you need to freeze fresh food; the Fast Freeze indicator (4) will lights up.
We recommend you to press the Fast Freeze button 24 hours before putting the food in, in order to prepare the freezer compartment for the best possible freezing conditions. We recommend you use the bottom.
Note: avoid a direct contact between the fresh food and the food that is already frozen. To optimise the freezing speed, drawers can be removed and the food can be placed directly on the bottom of the compartment.

Vacation Mode: You can use this function in the event of a prolonged absence from home. The display will show the temperature of the refrigerator compartment (+12°C) and the Vacation mode icon will light up. After activating this function, remove the food from the refrigerator compartment and keep both doors closed - the refrigerator will maintain a suitable temperature to prevent odours from forming. The freezer, however, remains at the temperature originally set. A deep clean (of both refrigeration and freezer compartment) is recommended before activating this function in order to prevent the spread of
bacteria.
Party Mode: Use this function to chill drinks inside the freezer
compartment.
Important: do not leave the bottle inside the freezer compartment longer than the function is active (30 minutes). An acoustic signal will
advice the end of the function.
Press the ALARM button or the MODE button to turn off the alarm.
