Switching off
1. To turn off the appliance, turn the Temper-
ature Regulator to the "O" position.
2. To disconnect the appliance from the pow-
er disconnect the mains plug from the wall

Temperature regulation

The temperature within the appliance is control-
led by the Temperature Regulator situated on
the control panel.
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
• turn the Temperature Regulator toward lower
settings to obtain the minimum coldness.
• turn the Temperature Regulator toward high-
er 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.
Red Alarm Indicator Light
Under normal operating conditions, the internal
temperature of the freezer will ensure the long-
term conservation of the stored food.
When such temperature rises above a certain
level (-12 °C), the appliance will trigger an
acoustic and light alarm. The light alarm is a
blink red light (Red Alarm Indicator Light), while
the acoustic alarm is an intermittent sound.

time, the Red Alarm Indicator Light will
blink until the internal temperature has reached
a level required for the safe conservation of fro-
zen food.

Fast Freeze function

If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen:
1. Press the Fast Freeze Switch for 2-3 sec-
onds to activate the fast-freeze function
6-24 hours before placing the fresh food in
the freezer, the Yellow Fast Freeze Indica-
tor Light will illuminate. The compressor will
now run continuously, to ensure that the
fresh food is frozen as quickly as possible.
2. It is possible to deactivate the function at
any time by pressing the Fast Freeze
Switch for 2-3 seconds.
3. Place the foods in the freezing compart-
ment (the top box), for maximum freezing
performance remove the drawer (if the
drawer is foreseen) and then place the
foods to be frozen directly on the evapora-
tor. In case of freezing smaller food vol-
umes do not need to remove the drawer.
4. Once the food is completely frozen (it may
take up to 24 hours) you can manually
switch off the fast-freeze function by press-
ing the Fast Freeze Switch for 2- 3 sec-
onds and the Yellow Fast Freeze Indicator
light will also go out.
5. Move frozen food from the freezing com-
partment into the other two compartments
(storing compartments) to make room for
another freezing.
If the Fast Freeze Switch is accidentally
left on, the fast-freeze function will be au-
tomatically switched off 48 hours later. The Yel-
low Fast Freeze Indicator light will also go out.
