Before carrying out any work, remove the plug from the
power socket.
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
Before use
Remove all securing tapes.Wash inside the appliance
with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml
to 0.5 litre of water).
Do not use soap or detergent as the smell
may linger. Dry thoroughly.
Quick-freezing
For quick-freezing, push the quick freeze switch (D).
The quick freeze control light (C) will then light up.
The quick-freezing function accelerates the freezing
of fresh food and, at the same time, protects
foodstuffs already stored from undesirable warming.
If this function is not ended manually, the appliance
switches off the quick-freezing function after 52
hours.The yellow light goes out.
This function can be ended manually at any time by
pressing the quick freeze switch again.The yellow
light goes out.
Frozen food storage
When first starting-up or after a period out of use,
before putting the products in the compartment let
the appliance run for at least two hours on the
coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to
the normal operating position.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin
burns.
Thawing
Frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in
the fridge or at room temperature depending on the
time available. Small food items may even be cooked
from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be eaten as soon as
possible or thrown away.Alternatively, if the food is
uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it
can be cooked and then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must
ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable 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.
Defrosted cooked food must never be
refrozen.
Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for long term
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh food.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to move
the thermostat knob from the normal setting. Push
the quick freeze switch at least 3 hours before
loading food.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 4 kg. of fresh
food.
Place the food to be frozen in the lower of the
freezer compartment as this is the coldest part.
To guarantee a good operation of the appliance
during normal use, the drawers should not be
removed.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with one or more trays
for ice-cubes 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 cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist.
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the trays from the freezer.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
Important
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer
will not be affected if the power cut is short and if
the freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the
food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and
must not be re-frozen .
Cold accumulators
2 cold accumulators are supplied in the freezer;
these increase the length of time for which food will
keep in the event of a power failure or breakdown.
They must be placed in the top drawer.
