away from any heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker, etc.)
and in a place not exposed directly to the sun. If
required, use an insulating plate.
• To guarantee adequate ventilation follow installation
instructions.
• Insufficient ventilation on back of the product
increases energy consumption and decreases cooling
efficiency.
• The internal temperatures of the appliance may be
affected by the ambient temperature, frequency of
door opening, as well as location of the appliance.
Temperature setting should take into consideration
these factors.
• Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
• After placing the food check if the door of
compartments closes properly, especially the freezer
door.
• Reduce to a minimum door opening.
• When thawing frozen food, place them in the
refrigerator. The low temperature of the frozen
products cools the food in the refrigerator.
• Damaged gasket must be replaced as soon as
possible.
• High energy class products are fitted with high
efficiency motors that remain operational for longer,
but have a low power consumption. Do not worry if

FREEZING FOOD
Preparation of fresh food for freezing
• Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in:
Aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight plastic
bags, polyethylene containers with lids, provided
they are suitable for freezing foods.
• Food must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in
order to obtain high quality frozen food.
• Fresh vegetables and fruit should preferably be
frozen as soon as they are picked to maintain the full
original nutritional value, consistency, colour and
flavour.
• Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the
appliance.
Freezing fresh food
• Place foods to be frozen in direct contact with the
walls of appliance (Fig. 4)
A) - foods to be frozen,
B) - foods already frozen.
• Avoid placing foods to be frozen in direct contact
with food already frozen.
• For best and fastest freezing, foods should be split
into small portions; this will also be useful when the
frozen items are to be used.
1. At least 24 hours before storing fresh foods inside
the product for freezing, activate the fast freezing
function by pressing button c for approximately 3
seconds. All green LEDs (b) comes on.
2. Introduce the food to freeze inside the appliance,
and keep the door of the appliance closed for 24

FOOD STORAGE
Refer to the table on the appliance.
Classification of frozen foods
Put the frozen products into the appliance and
classify them; the storage date should be indicated
on the packs, to allow use within expiry dates listed
in months in Fig. 5 for each type of food.
Advice for storing frozen food
When purchasing frozen food products:
• Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen
food in damaged packaging may have deteriorated).
If the package is swollen or has damp patches, it
may not have been stored under optimal conditions
and defrosting may have already begun.
• When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until
last and transport the products in a thermally
insulated cool bag.
• Once at home, place the frozen foods immediately
in the appliance.
• Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the
minimum Respect the best-before date on the
package.
• Always observe the storage information on the
package.
Note:
Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately.
Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it
has thawed. Once cooked, the thawed food can
be refrozen. If there is a long power failure:
• Do not open the appliance lid except to place
ice packs (if provided) over the frozen foods on
the right and left of the appliance. This will slow
down the rise in temperature.
DEFROSTING THE APPLIANCE
The appliance should be defrosted when the
thickness of ice on the walls reaches 5-6 mm.
• Disconnect the appliance from the mains power
supply.
• Remove the packs of food from the appliance and
wrap them close together in newspaper and store in
a very cool place or thermally insulated bag.
• Leave the appliance lid open.
• Remove the internal defrost water drain plug
(depending on model) (Fig. 6)
• Remove the external defrost water drain plug
(depending on model) and reposition it as shown in
the figure 6
• Place a bowl beneath the drainage channel to
collect the residual water. If available, use the divider
(Fig. 6)
• Speed up defrosting by using a spatula to detach
the ice from the appliance walls.
• Remove the ice from the bottom of the appliance.
• In order to avoid permanent damage to the
appliance interior, do not use pointed or sharp metal
instruments for removing the ice.
