Switching on
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise to
a medium setting.
The pilot light will light up.
Important! If the temperature inside the
appliance is too high the Alarm light will blink.
Active the Fast freezing function.
Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the Tempera-
ture regulator to the "O" position.
The pilot light will switch off.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated.
To operate the appliance, proceed as fol-
lows:
• turn the Temperature regulator toward
lower settings to obtain the minimum cold-
ness.
• turn the Temperature regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.
A medium setting is generally the most
suitable.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside
the appliance depends on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.
Important! If the ambient temperature is
high or the appliance is fully loaded, and the
appliance is set to the lowest temperatures,
it may run continuously causing frost to form
on the rear wall. In this case the dial must be
set to a higher temperature to allow
automatic defrosting and therefore reduced
energy consumption.
Fast freezing function
You can activate the Fast freezing function by
pressing the Fast freezing switch.
The Fast freezing light will light up.
This function stops automatically after 52
hours.
It is possible to deactivate the function at any
time by pressing Fast freezing switch.
The Fast freezing light will switch off.
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in a compart-
ment (for example due to an power failure) is
indicated by flashing of the Alarm light.
When normal conditions are restored the
Alarm light will switch off automatically.
