your appliance for at least 24 hours in the «fast
freeze» mode efore storing frozen food.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated y the
manufacturer.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is a solutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put car onated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can possi ly result in a low
temperature skin urn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin a rasions or
“frost/freezer urns”.
Important
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will
not e affected if the power cut is short and if the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food
egin to thaw, it must e consumed quickly and must
not e re-frozen .
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to eing used, can
e thawed in the fridge or at room temperature
depending on the time availa le. Small food items
may even e cooked from frozen; in this case
cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either e eaten as soon as possi le or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has
not een completely defrosted it can e cooked and
then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should e thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even e cooked while still frozen, ut you must
ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegeta les should e directly immersed in oiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can e placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suita le for thawing
any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the
oven instructions, particularly regarding the
placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in
the oven.
De rosted cooked ood must never be re rozen.

• Avoid unnecessary frosting in the ca inet y
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages
efore placing them in the freezer.
• Always leave warm food to cool down to room
temperature efore placing in the fridge or
freezer.
• Food which is to e frozen (when cool) should e
placed in the fridge efore eing transferred to
the freezer.
• Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure
safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of
the refrigeration unit.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the ca inet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• Ensure there are no o structions preventing the

In the Event o a Power Failure
If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen
foods, keep the door closed. If the temperature within
your freezer should rise do not refreeze the food
without checking it’s condition. The following guide-
lines should assist you.
Ice Cream:
Once thawed should e discarded.
Fruit and Vegetables:
If soft should e cooked and used up.
Bread and Cakes:
Can e refrozen without danger.
Shell ish:
Should e refrigerated and used up quickly.
Cooked Dishes:
i.e. casseroles, should e refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces o Meat:
Can e re-frozen providing there are ice crystals
remaining within them.
Small Joints:
Should e cooked and then re-frozen as cooked
dishes.
Chicken:

Food Storage
• To o tain the est results from your appliance,
neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should e placed in the larder
compartment.
• Keep the time etween uying chilled food and
placing it in your fridge as short as possi le.
• Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
• Do not store food uncovered.
• Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean, refer to ‘Maintenance and Cleaning’.
• Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated
and la elled and used in date order to ensure
that food is consumed at its est.
• Avoid uying frozen food if you cannot store it
straight away. The use of an insulated container is
advisa le. When you arrive home place the frozen
food in the freezer immediately.
• The sym ols on the drawers show different types
of frozen goods. The num ers indicate storage
times in months for the appropriate types of
frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of
the indicated storage time is valid depends on the
quality of the foods and pre-treating efore
freezing.
Energy Saving Advice
• Do not install the ca inet close to sources of
heat, i.e. oiler or radiator.
• Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and make sure that the air openings of the
ca inet are not o structed.
• Avoid unnecessary frosting in the ca inet y
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages
efore placing them in the freezer.
• Always leave warm food to cool down to room
temperature efore placing in the fridge or
freezer.
• Food which is to e frozen (when cool) should e
placed in the fridge efore eing transferred to
the freezer.
• Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure
safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of
the refrigeration unit.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the ca inet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• Ensure there are no o structions preventing the
door from closing properly.
In the Event o a Power Failure
If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen
foods, keep the door closed. If the temperature within
your freezer should rise do not refreeze the food
without checking it’s condition. The following guide-
lines should assist you.
Ice Cream:
Once thawed should e discarded.
Fruit and Vegetables:
If soft should e cooked and used up.
Bread and Cakes:
Can e refrozen without danger.
Shell ish:
Should e refrigerated and used up quickly.
Cooked Dishes:
i.e. casseroles, should e refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces o Meat:
Can e re-frozen providing there are ice crystals
remaining within them.
Small Joints:
Should e cooked and then re-frozen as cooked
dishes.
Chicken:
Should e cooked and re-frozen as a fresh dish.

your appliance for at least 24 hours in the «fast
freeze» mode efore storing frozen food.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated y the
manufacturer.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is a solutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put car onated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can possi ly result in a low
temperature skin urn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin a rasions or
“frost/freezer urns”.
Important
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will
not e affected if the power cut is short and if the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food
egin to thaw, it must e consumed quickly and must
not e re-frozen .
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to eing used, can
e thawed in the fridge or at room temperature
depending on the time availa le. Small food items
may even e cooked from frozen; in this case
cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either e eaten as soon as possi le or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has
not een completely defrosted it can e cooked and
then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should e thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even e cooked while still frozen, ut you must
ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegeta les should e directly immersed in oiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can e placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suita le for thawing
any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the
oven instructions, particularly regarding the
placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in
the oven.
De rosted cooked ood must never be re rozen.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with one or more trays for
ice-cu es trays.
Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand
and place them in the freezer compartment.
To release the ice cu es simply give the tray a slight
twist.
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the trays from the freezer.
Cold accumulators
The appliance is equipped with two cold
accumulators. If there is a power outage, they will
extend food conservation for a few hours.
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in the freezer
compartment (for example due to an power failure)
is indicated y:
- flashing temperature;
- freezer compartment flashing (sym ol 2);
- red illumination of display;
- sounding of uzzer.
When normal conditions are restored:
- the acoustic signal shuts off;
- the temperature value continues to flash;
- the display illumination remains red.
When you press utton "E" to de-activate the alarm,
the highest temperature reached in the compartment
appears on indicator 4 for approximately 5 seconds.
At this point the flashing stops and the display
illumination changes over from red to white.
During the alarm phase, the uzzer can e switched
off y pressing utton E; the illumination of the
display remains red until normal storage conditions
are restored.

Setting the temperature
The temperature within the appliance is controlled y
the thermostat control kno situated at the top of the
appliance.
The temperature of this compartment may e
regulated y rotating the kno (F), and may vary
etween more or less +2°C and +8°C.
When the kno is rotated, the display flashes and
indicates the set temperature. After having set the
desired temperature, if the kno is not rotated within
5 seconds, the temperature of the freezer
compartment will e indicated.
To operate the appliance proceed as follows:
Turn the thermostat control eyond the «O» position.
Position ● = minimum coldness
Position ●= maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most
suitable.
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the appliance depends on the following
factors:
– room temperature
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance
To shut off the refrigerator compartment, rotate the
kno (F) anticlockwise till position "O". In this position
the word "OF" is indicated for 5 seconds. The freezer
compartment will keep on working.
We suggest placing the kno in the middle position to
o tain an internal temperature of approximately +5° C.
Once the refrigerator compartment is shut off, the
only temperature which is indicated is that of the
freezer compartment.
In this condition, the function shopping cannot e
activated, and the lighting in the refrigerator
compartment will e switched off.
