5.2 Indicator lights

There are three coloured indicator 

lights located inside the appliance 

which show the operating mode of 

the freezer.

Amber Indicator

Illuminates when the thermostat 

is set to max and stays on until the 

fast  freeze operation is deactivated 

automatically or manually. 

Fast-freeze operation is for 

freezing fresh food (see Freezing 

Fresh Food section).

Green Indicator

Illuminates when the appliance is 

connected to the mains and will 

glow as long as there is electricity 

present. The green indicator does 

not give any indication of the 

temperature inside the freezer.
Red Indicator High Temperature
Alarm

After the appliance is turned on for

the first time the alarm is not 

active for 12 hours (The red LED 

indicator is switched off).

After this period of time the red 

LED indicator is switched on in the 

following situations:

-If the appliance is overloaded with

fresh food -If the door is left open 

for a long time by mistake.In these 

situations the red LED indicator 

will continue to be switched on 

MAX.

until the appliance reaches the 

preset temperature. If the red LED 

indicator is still switched on then 

wait for 24 hours before calling 

service.

Thermostat knob 

The thermostat control is located 

on the indicator light frame.

Important:

When you set to fast freeze (max) 

or adjust the set temperature, 

there may be a short delay 

before the compressor starts to 

operate. This is normal and not a 

compressor fault.

Freezing

Freezing food

You can use the appliance for 

freezing fresh food as well as for 

storing pre-frozen food.

Please refer to the 

recommendations given on the 

packaging of your food.

• Attention

Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the 

bottle may burst when the liquid in 

it is frozen.
