Overview of the appliance
A
Ambient temperature of use
Respect the climate classes indicated in the product information on the appliance's rating
plate. You can use this to check the recommended temperature range of the room where the
appliance is located:
- SN: Between 10 and 32°C
- N: Between 16 and 32°C
- ST: Between 16 and 38°C
- T: Between 16 and 43°C
A multi-class appliance can handle the lowest and highest temperature of all classes covered.
Using the appliance outside the recommended temperature range will lead to inferior performance
and premature ageing.
Temperature control adjustment
For optimal use and to save energy, adjust the temperature control(s) of the appliance according
to the ambient temperature of the room, in which it is being used, and respect the climate class.
Refer to the product sheet to find out the climatic class associated with the minimum and
maximum recommended ambient temperatures for the appliance as well as the temperature
setting recommended for storing food under optimal conditions.
The ambient temperature degrees T °C are given only as a guide.
The set positions can be affected by the location of the appliance in the room, how often the
door is opened or the amount of food inside.
The temperature control may need to be changed to compensate for these factors.
Examples of locations:
- Unheated room in winter like a garage in a cold region.
- Kitchen/lounge area with normal heating.
- Room that is not air-conditioned in summer in a hot region.

Useful tips
Tips for freezing
To help you freeze food properly, here are some important tips.
• the maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate.
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No other food to be frozen should be added during
this period.
• Only freeze good quality, fresh and completely cleaned food.
• Prepare food in small quantities to allow it to freeze quickly and completely; you will then
be able to thaw the quantity you require.
• Wrap food in aluminium foil or place it in a polythene bag and make sure the packages are
airtight.
• In order to avoid a rise in temperature of already frozen products, do not place fresh food in
contact with food that is already frozen.
• Foods without fat and lean meats keep better and longer than fatty foods; salt reduces the
storage time of food.
• Water turns to ice. If consumed immediately after being removed from the freezer
compartment, there is a risk of cold burn to the skin.
• It is recommended to indicate the date of freezing on each individual package to allow you
to track its storage time.
Tips for storing frozen foods

• Make sure that the marketed and frozen food product has been properly stored by the retailer;
