•Do not store or use petrol, flammable liquids or gas in the vicinity of this or other electrical appliances. The vapours may cause fire or explosion.
•Do not use mechanical, electric or chemical means other than those recommended by the Manufacturer to speed up the defrost process.
•Do not damage the appliance refrigerant circuit pipes.
•Do not use or place electrical appliances inside the product if they are not of the type expressly authorised by the Manufacturer.
•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they don't play with the appliance.
•This appliance is not designed for use by young children or the infirm without supervision.
•To avoid the risk of children becoming trapped and suffocating, do not allow them to play or hide inside the appliance.
•Do not swallow the contents (non-toxic) of the ice packs (where provided).
•Use the refrigerator compartment to store fresh food only and the freezer compartment to store frozen food, to freeze fresh food, and to make ice cubes only.
•Do not store glass containers with liquids in the freezer since they may burst.
•Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer since they may cause cold burns.
•Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning, unplug the appliance or disconnect it from the power supply.
•All appliances equipped with an ice-maker and water dispenser must be connected to a water supply that only delivers drinking water (with mains water pressure of between 0.17 and 0.81 Mpascals (1.7 and 8.1 bar)). Ice-makers and/or water dispensers not directly connected to the water supply must be filled with drinking water only.
•The Manufacturer declines any liability if the above advice and precautions are not respected.

HOW TO USE THE FREEZER
The freezer can be used for storing already frozen food and for freezing fresh food.
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 alarm signal activates, indicating that the freezer has not yet reached a sufficiently cold temperature for storage of foodstuffs.
•Only place food in the freezer once the alarm signal has deactivated (for further details, see the enclosed product sheet).
Temperature Adjustment
For temperature adjustment, see the enclosed product sheet.
NOTE: Ambient air temperature, the frequency of door opening and the position of the appliance can affect the freezer internal temperature. Take these factors into consideration when setting the thermostat knobs.
“Dynamic Intelligence” function
The Dynamic Intelligence function, if present, is automatically activated in the following cases:
Door opening
The function activates when door opening causes the internal temperature to increase to values that do not ensure safe storage of food and remains active until optimal storage conditions have been restored.
Placing fresh food in the freezer
The function activates when fresh food is placed in the freezer and remains active until optimal freezing conditions are reached so as
to ensure the best freezing quality with the lowest power consumption.
NOTE: Besides the quantity of food loaded into the freezer, ambient temperature and the quantity of food already inside the freezer affect the duration of the Dynamic Intelligence function. Therefore significant duration variations are quite normal.
Freezing
The amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance data plate.
For optimum appliance performance, press the fast freeze button (until the yellow LED lights up) 24 hours before placing fresh food
in the freezer.
After placing fresh food in the freezer, 24 hours on fast freeze function is generally sufficient; After 24 hours, deactivate the fast freeze function.
Attention:
In order to save energy, when freezing small amounts of food, the fast freeze function can be deactivated after a few hours.
If the Dynamic Intelligence function is present, appliance operation is controlled automatically and no operation is required (see chapter “Dynamic Intelligence” function).
