Advice for a maximum
efficiency
Important!
Do not place too much food into the freezer at
any one time. The quality of food is best
preserved if it is frozen as thoroughly and as
quickly as possible. This is why it is better not
to exceed the freezing capacity of the
appliance as specified in the "Appliance data
sheet". To reduce the freezing time, you can
use the function „fast freeze”.
•
Fresh food must not come into contact with
the food already frozen.
•
Frozen food, bought from the shop, can be
placed into the freezer without needing to
adjust the thermostat.
•
If the freezing date is not mentioned on the
packing, please consider a period of storage
of max. 3 months as a general rule.
•
Any food, even partially defrosted, cannot be
frozen again, it must be consumed
immediately or cooked and then frozen again.
•
Effervescent drinks should not be stored in
the freezer.
•
In case of a power failure do not open the
door of the appliance. The frozen food will not
be affected if the failure lasts less than 18
hours.
Energy saving
•
Avoid placing the appliance in a sunny area
or near a heat source.
•
Provide good ventilation for the compressor
and condenser.
•
Place the food into closed containers or foil
to avoid ice build-up.
•
Do not leave the doors open longer than
necessary, open them only when required.
•
Store liquids only in closed containers.
•
Place foods and liquids into the appliance
only when they are at room temperature .
Keep the condenser clean.
•
You can save energy if you defrost the food
by placing them first in the refrigerator
compartment.
Repositioning the door
Proceed in numerical order

Appliance maintenance and
cleaning
Advice for appliance defrosting
The „NO FROST” defrosting is completely
automatic. You do not need to do anything.
The water from the defrosting is collected in a
tray on the compressor, where it evaporates
because of the temperature generated during
its operation
(Fig 6).
Keep the collector and the water drain tube
clean . For this purpose use the supplied
cleaning tool. Check that the tube is
permanently placed with its end in the
collecting tray on the compressor to prevent
the water spilling on the electric installation or
on the floor
(Fig 7).
Inside cleaning
(Fig 8 & 9)
Before starting the cleaning operation, unplug
the appliance.
•
It is recommended that you clean the
appliance when you defrost it.
•
Wash the inside with lukewarm water where
you can add a neutral detergent. Do not use
soap, detergent, petrol or acetone which can
leave a strong odour.
•
Wipe with a wet sponge and dry with a soft
cloth.
During this operation, avoid excess water to
avoid it from entering into the thermal
insulation of the appliance, which would cause
unpleasant odours.
Be careful to avoid water entering into the
enclosure of the inside lamp !
After finishing the cleaning, plug in the
appliance.
Do not forget to clean the door gaskets,
especially the ribs of the bellows, by means of
a clean cloth.
