DEFROSTING/FIRST USE AND INSTALLATION
You should defrost the freezer compartment two or three times a year when the ice is about 4 mm thick. To defrost,
follow these steps:
Set the thermostat to” Colder” at least 12 hours before defrosting.
After this period has elapsed, switch off the freezer compartment by removing the plug from the main power
supply.
Remove all food from the freezer and wrap them in paper and store them in a cold place and leave the door
open.
When the defrosting is finished , the compartment must be cleaned and wiped dry.
Switch the appliance back on using the thermostat set to ” Colder”and, wait at least one hour before replacing
the foodstuffs.
After a few hours the thermostat can be set back to the original position.
WARNING: Do not use mechanicals devices or other artificial means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
WARNING: Do not use electricals appliance inside the food storage compartment of the appliances, unless they are

Cleaning before use
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and
some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then dry thoroughly. Important! It is
necessary to have good ventilation around the freezer to allow for the dissipation of heat, high efficiency, and low
power consumption. For this reason, sufficiently cleared space should be available around the freezer. It is advisable
for there to be 75mm separating the back of the freezer to the wall and at least 100mm of space on
its two sides, a height of over 100mm from its top.
