Positioning
Install this appliance at a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the
climate class indicated on the rating plate of the appliance:
Location
The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators,
boilers, direct sunlight etc. Ensure that air can circulate freely around the back of the
cabinet. To ensure best performance, if the appliance is positioned below an
overhanging wall unit, the minimum distance between the top of the cabinet and the
wall unit must be at least 100 mm. Ideally, however, the appliance should not be
positioned below overhanging wall units. Accurate leveling is ensured by one or more
adjustable feet at the base of the cabinet.
Warning! It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power
supply; the plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.
Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate
correspond to your domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power
supply cable plug is provided with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power
supply socket is not earthed, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance
with current regulations, consulting a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not
observed. This appliance complies with the E.E.C. Directives.

compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
Important! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example 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
re-frozen (after cooked).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the fridge compartment
or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer. In this case,

Helpful hints and tips
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
