cally switched off 48 hours later. The Yellow Fast Freeze Indicator light will also go out.
FIRST USE

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accesso-
ries with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a
brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.

DAILY USE

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment (the top box) is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing fro-
zen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the fast freeze function.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate , a label located on the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power
has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under
"rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and
then re-frozen (after cooling).

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed at room temperature.
