each press of the button. During this process, the
value shown on the digital display blinks.
• About 5 seconds after the button has been pressed
for the last time, the set temperature is stored, the
digital display
(1)
stops blinking and shows the
internal temperature again.
• To check the appliance temperature setting at any
time, press one of the temperature adjustment
buttons once. The set value will blink for 5
seconds, after which the internal temperature of the
freezer will be displayed again.
note: in the event of a power failure, settings
remain memorised. the time required for the
temperature inside the freezer to reach the
set value can vary according to the weather
conditions and the temperature setting; in any
case temperature variations are displayed with
some delay.
eco function
ECONOMY mode is recommended when the
appliance is only partly loaded, below the level of the
“e” on the separator. To set the ECO function:
• Press one of the temperature adjustment buttons
(2; 3)
.
• The digital display
(1)
will blink, showing the
previous temperature setting.
• Press the button
(3)
several times as required
to increase the temperature until the value EC
appears on the digital display.
note: if the large load freeze function is
activated when the appliance is in eco mode,
the eco mode is automatically deactivated for
the entire duration of the function.
“Green InteLLIGence” functIon
The Green Intelligence function is automatically
activated in the following cases:
Lid opening
• The function activates when lid opening causes
the internal temperature to increase to values that
do not ensure safe storage of food and remains
active until optimal storage conditions have been
restored.
Loading food to be frozen
• The function activates when fresh food is placed
in the freezer and remains active until optimal
freezing conditions are reached so as to ensure
the best freezing quality with the lowest power
consumption.
note:
the duration of the Green Intelligence function
is calculated according to the amount of food loaded
in the freezer, the amount of food already inside
the freezer and the outside temperature. Therefore
significant duration variations are quite normal.
Control panel lock
• This function prevents anyone from inadvertently
changing settings.
• Once this function has been selected, even if a
button is pressed the corresponding function is not
activated.
• To lock the control panel, press buttons
(2)
and
(7)
together for about 3 seconds until the display
shows the symbol before showing the set
temperature again.
• To unlock the control panel, follow the same
procedure: when the symbol disappears, the
control panel lock is deactivated.
ALArMs
•
temperature alarm
Signals that the internal temperature is above
-12°C. The acoustic alarm sounds and the red LED
(8)
flashes. To deactivate the acoustic alarm, press
the button
(7)
. The LED
(8)
will continue to flash
until the temperature falls below -12°C.
note:
in these circumstances the Green Intelligence
LED is activated automatically until normal storage
conditions are restored.
•
Prolonged power failure alarm
Indicates that the internal temperature has risen
above -8°C following a power failure.
The acoustic alarm sounds, the red LED
(8)
blinks
and the digital display
(I)
flashes, showing the
highest temperature reached during the power
failure. Press the button
(7)
; the digital display
shows the current internal temperature again.
note:
in these cases the Green Intelligence LED is
activated automatically.
•
sensor alarm
Indicates a temperature sensor fault.
The acoustic alarm sounds, the red LED
(8)
blinks and the digital display shows “SF”. In these
circumstances, contact the After-Sales Service.
note: the temperature alarm may also be
activated after loading fresh food or prolonged
door opening; in any case, this does not affect
the perfect preservation of already frozen
food. A power failure, on the other hand, may
compromise the preservation of frozen food, in
which case make sure to check the food to avoid
any risk.

Preparing fresh food for freezing
• Wrap and seal the fresh food in: aluminium foil,
cling film, plastic bags, polyethylene containers
with lids, provided they are suitable for freezing
food.
• Food must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in
order to obtain high quality frozen food.
• Fresh fruit and vegetables should preferably be
frozen as soon as they are picked to maintain the
full original nutritional value, consistency, colour
and flavour.
• Always leave hot food to cool before placing it
inside the appliance.
freezing fresh food
