4Preparation
• Your cooler/freezer should be
installed at least 30 cm away from
heat sources such as hobs, ovens,
central heater and stoves and at
least 5 cm away from electrical
ovens and should not be located
under direct sunlight.
• Please make sure that the interior
of your cooler/freezer is cleaned
thoroughly.
• If two coolers are to be installed side
by side, there should be at least 2 cm
distance between them.
• When you operate your cooler/
freezer for the first time, please
observe the following instructions
during the initial six hours.
• Its door should not be opened
frequently.
• It must be operated empty without
placing any food in it.
• Do not unplug your cooler/freezer.
If a power failure occurs out of your
control, please see the warnings in
the “Recommended solutions for
the problems” section.
• The baskets/drawers that are
provided with the chill compartment
must always be in use for low energy
consumption and for better storage
conditions.
• Food contact with the temperature
sensor in the freezer compartment
may increase energy consumption
of the appliance. Thus any contact
with the sensor(s) must be avoided.
• This product has been designed to
function at ambient temperatures
up to 43 °C (90 SDgrF). Even if the
ambient temperature falls to -15
°C, frozen food in the freezer does
not thaw thanks to its Advanced
Electronic Temperature Control
System. For the first installation, the
product should NOT be placed under
low ambient temperatures. This is
because the freezer cannot go down
to standard operation temperature.
When reaching continuous
operation, the product can be moved
to another place. Thus, later you can
place your product in the garage
or an unheated room without the
concern of causing frozen food to
get rotten. However, it is likely that
above mentioned low temperatures
may cause the freezing of the food
in the fridge compartment; thus,
please consume the food items in
the fridge in a controlled way as
needed. When ambient temperature
goes back to normal, you may
change button setting according to
your need.
• If the ambient temperature is
below 0°C, the food in fridge
compartment will freeze. Therefore,
we recommend not using the fridge
compartment in such low ambient
temperatures. You may continue
to use the freezer compartment as
usual.
• In some models, the instrument
panel automatically turns off 5
minutes after the door has closed.
It will be reactivated when the door
has opened or pressed on any key.
• Due to temperature change as
a result of opening/closing the
product door during operation,
condensation on the door/body
shelves and the glass containers is
normal.

5Using your cooler/freezer
Setting the operating temperature
Warm Cold
The operating temperature is
regulated by the temperature control.
1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest
setting)
MAX. = Highest cooling setting
(Coldest setting)
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
The interior temperature also
depends on ambient temperature,
the frequency with which the door is
opened and the amount of foods kept
inside.
Frequently opening the door causes
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
The normal storage temperature of
your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F).
Lower temperatures can be obtained
by adjusting the thermostat knob
towards Position MAX.
We recommend checking the
temperature with a thermometer to
ensurethatthestoragecompartments
are kept to the desired temperature.
Remember to take the reading
immediately since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the freezer.

Indicator lights
There are three coloured indicator
lights located inside the appliance
which show the operating mode of
the freezer.
Amber Indicator
Illuminates when the thermostat
knob is turned to MAX. position and
stays onuntilthefastfreeze operation
is deactivated manually.
Fast-freeze operation is for freezing
fresh food.
Green Indicator
Illuminates when the appliance is
connected to the mains and will glow
as long as there is electricity present.
The green indicator does not give any
indication of the temperature inside
the freezer.
Red Indicator High Temperature
Alarm
After the appliance is turned on for
the first time the alarm is not active
for 12 hours (The red LED indicator is
switched off).
After this period of time the red LED
indicator is switched on in the
following situations:
-If the appliance is overloaded with
fresh food -If the door is left open
by mistake.In these situations the
red LED indicator will continue to
be switched on until the appliance
reaches the preset temperature. If the
red LED indicator is still switched on
then wait for 24 hours before calling
service.
Thermostat knob
The thermostat knob is located on
the indicator light frame.
Important:
When you press the fast-freeze
switch or adjust the set temperature,
there may be a short delay before the
compressor starts to operate. This is
normal and not a compressor fault.
Freezing
Freezing food
You can use the appliance for
freezing fresh food as well as for
storing pre-frozen food.
Please refer to the recommendations
given on the packaging of your food.
• Attention
Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the
bottle may burst when the liquid in it
is frozen.
Be careful with frozen products such
as coloured ice-cubes.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity
of your appliance in 24 hours. See the
rating label.
In order to maintain the quality of the
food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not
be exceeded, and the temperature
inside the freezer will not rise.

EN
17
• Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food
always separated with freshly placed
food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the
cooling compressor will work until the
food is completely frozen. This can
temporarily cause excessive cooling
of the refrigeration compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult
to open just after you have closed it,
don’t worry. This is due to the pressure
difference which will equalize and
allow the door to open normally after
a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just
after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
Fast freeze
If large amounts of fresh food are
going to be frozen, adjust the control
knob to max. 24 hours before putting
the fresh food in the fast freeze
compartment.
It is strongly recommended to
keep the knob at MAX. position at
least 24 hours to freeze maximum
amount of fresh food declared as
freezing capacity. Take special care
not to mix frozen food and fresh food.
Remember to turn the thermostat
knob back to its previous
position once food has frozen.
Defrosting of the appliance
Excessive build-up of ice will affect
the freezing performance of your
appliance.
It is therefore recommended that you
defrost your appliance at least twice
a year, or whenever the ice build-up
exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your appliance when there is
only little or no food in it.
Take out the deep-frozen food from
the drawers. Wrap the deep-frozen
food in several layers of paper, or a
blanket, and keep it in a cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch
off the circuit breaker to start the
defrosting process.
Take out the accessories (like shelf,
drawer etc.) from the appliance and
use a suitable container to collect the
thawing water.
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to
remove
thawing water if necessary.
Keep the door open during
defrosting.
For quicker defrosting, place
containers with warm water inside
the appliance.
Never use electrical devices,
defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp-
edged objects such as knives or forks
to remove the ice.

EN
18
After the defrosting is done, clean
the inside (see the section ‘Cleaning
and care’).
Reconnect the appliance to the
mains. Place the frozen food into the
drawers and slide the drawers into the
freezer.

EN
