Positioning and connection
Positioning
1.Placetheapplianceinawell-ventilatedhumidity-free
room.
2.Donotobstructtherearfangrills.Thecompressorand
condensergiveoffheatandrequiregoodventilationto
operatecorrectlyandsaveenergy.
3.Ensuretheapplianceisawayfromanysourcesofheat
(directsunlight,electricstove,etc.).
Electrical connections
Aftertheappliancehasbeentransported,carefullyplace
itverticallyandwaitatleast3hoursbeforeconnectingit
totheelectricitymains.Beforeinsertingtheplugintothe
electricalsocketensurethefollowing:
•Theapplianceisearthedandtheplugiscompliant
withthelaw.
• Thesocketcanwithstandthemaximumpowerofthe
appliance,whichisindicatedonthedataplatelocated
insidethefreezer(e.g.150W).
• Thevoltageisintherangeofvaluesindicatedonthedata
platelocatedinsidethefreezer(e.g.220-240V).
• Thesocketiscompatiblewiththeplugoftheappliance.If
thesocketisincompatiblewiththeplug,askanauthorised
techniciantoreplaceit(see Assistance).Donotuse
extensioncordsormultiplesockets.
! Oncetheappliancehasbeeninstalled,thepower
supplycableandtheelectricalsocketmustbeeasily
accessible.
! Thecablemustnotbebentorcompressed.
! Thecablemustbecheckedregularlyandreplacedby
authorisedtechniciansonly(seeAssistance).
! The manufacturer declines any liability should these
safety measures not be observed.
Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation
instructions (see Installation).
! Beforeconnectingtheappliance,cleanthecompartments
andaccessorieswellwithlukewarmwaterandbicarbonate.
1. PlugtheapplianceinandmakesuretheGREENandRED
indicatorlightsareilluminated(presstheON/OFFswitchso
itisinthe- position).
2. Whentheredindicatorlightswitchesoff,turnthe
TEMPERATUREADJUSTMENTknobtoamediumposition.
Thefreezerisnowreadytobeused.
Using the freezer to its full potential
• UsetheFREEZEROPERATIONknobtoadjustthetemperature
1 =warmest
4=coldest
Werecommend,however,amediumposition.
• Donotre-freezefoodthatisdefrostingorthathasalready
beendefrosted.Thesefoodsmustbecookedandeaten
(within24hours).
• Freshfoodthatneedstobefrozenmustnotcomeinto
contactwithfoodthathasalreadybeendefrosted.
• Donotplaceglassbottleswhichcontainliquids,andwhich
arecorkedorhermeticallysealedinthefreezerbecause
theycouldbreak.
• Themaximumquantityoffoodthatmaybefrozen
dailyisindicatedontheplatecontainingthetechnical
propertieslocatedonthebottomleftsideoftherefrigerator
compartment(forexample:Kg/24h:4)
• Placinglargeamountsoffreshfoodinthefreezermay
temporarilyincreasethetemperatureinsidetheappliance
(thisisindicatedwhentheREDindicatorlightilluminates).
Thissituation,asitisonlytemporary,doesnotadversely
affectthestorageconditionsoffoodthatisalreadyfrozen.
! Donotopenthedoorduringfreezing.
!Ifthereisapowercutormalfunction,donotopenthefreezer
door.Thiswillhelpmaintainthetemperatureinsidethefreezer,
ensuringthatfoodsareconservedforatleast9-14hours.
!REDIndicatorLight.Whenthisredlightcomesonfora
prolongedperiodoftime,itmeansthatthefreezerisnot
functioningproperlyandthetemperatureisrisingtoomuch.
(CallyourServiceCentre)
Thiswarninglightmightcomeonforabriefperiodwhen:
