HOW TO OPERATE THE APPLIANCE
Switching on the appliance
• Plug in the appliance.
• Two horizontal lines appear on the digital display (2).
• When the appliance is warm (internal temperature above 10° C) only the two lines in the middle remain
illuminated.
• The green ON LED (1) will light up.
• The red alarm LED (8) will start blinking and the acoustic alarm will sound.
• Press the reset button (8) to stop the acoustic alarm.
• The acoustic alarm stops while the red alarm LED continues to blink.
• When the appliance reaches at least -12° C the red LED (8) stops blinking. Food can now be placed in the freezer.
If the door is left open for more than 2 minutes the Door Open Alarm will sound (See paragraph " Alarms").
Internal temperature adjustment
The appliance is normally factory set for optimum operation at a temperature of -18° C.
To adjust the internal temperature between -16° C and -24° C and set to ECONOMIC (See paragraph ECO function)
proceed as follows:
• Press one of the two temperature adjustment buttons once (3 ; 4).
• The digital display (2) will blink, showing the previous temperature setting.
• Press button (4) as required to increase the temperature. Every time the button is pressed, the value will change
by 1° C. During this procedure the temperature will flash on the digital display.
• Press button (3) as required to lower the temperature. Every time the button is pressed, the value will change by
1° C. During this procedure the temperature will flash on the digital display.
NOTE: In the event of a power failure, settings remain memorised.
The internal temperature of the freezer may vary depending on climatic conditions, settings, the
amount of food stored and the frequency of door opening.
ECO function
We recommend using the "ECO" function when small amounts of food are stored.
To activate the ECO function, proceed as follows:
• Place the food in the top compartment ONLY.
• Press the ECO function button (5) once.
• The corresponding (5) LED will light up.
Press the button again to deactivate the function: the corresponding LED will switch off; Previous settings
will be restored.
Control panel lock function
• This function prevents anyone from inadvertently changing settings.
• When this function is enabled, even if a button is pressed the corresponding function is not activated/deactivated.
• To lock the control panel, press buttons (8) and (6) simultaneously for about 3 seconds.
• When the control panel lock function is enabled, the display (2) will momentarily show "CH" and the acoustic
alarm will sound 3 times. The corresponding LED (7) will light up. If a button is pressed, the letters "CH" and the
acoustic alarm will warn that the "control panel lock" function is enabled.
• To unlock the control panel, proceed in the same way: when the display (7) switches off the control panel lock function is
disabled.
Switching off the appliance
If the appliance is not to be used for a prolonged period of time, it can be switched off by pressing button (1).
Although connected to the power supply, the appliance is effectively switched off and all LEDs switch off except the
decimal point on the display (2).
If the fast freeze function (6) and the ECO function (5) are enabled before switching off, they will not be restored
when the appliance is switched on again.
