4.8 Electrical connection
EN
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate
correspond to your domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power
supply cable plug is provided with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power
supply socket is not earthed, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance
with current regulations, consulting a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not
observed.

5. USE

5.1 First 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!
• Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
• After transport, unpacking and installation, let the appliance rest at least 2 hours in
vertical position before connecting to the power supply.
• Let the appliance run for at least 2 hours before inserting fresh or frozen foods.
5.2 Temperature Setting
Connect your appliance to mains power. The internal temperature is controlled by a
thermostat (6) with 8 settings. 1 is warmest setting, 7 is coldest setting and 0 is off
( Fig. 15).
The appliance may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot
position, if you open the door very often or leave it standing open.
5.3 Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.
5.4 Storing frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the product in the
compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on a higher setting.
WARNING: In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the power has been off
for longer than the temperature rise time shown on the rating plate of the appliance, the
defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen
(after being cooked).
5.5 Thawing food
Frozen food can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temperature before
being cooked, depending on your needs. Follow the food manufacturer's instructions on
the packaging.
