Warning light
This light

flashes when the temperature
inside the appliance has increased so much as
to jeopardize the preservation of food in the
compartment (warmer than -12°C).
When the appliance is switched on for the first
time or when food is placed in the
compartment for freezing, this light flashes until
the temperature has reached the level required
for correct storage.
Freezing fresh food

again. The yellow light goes out.
This time can be shortened, depending on the
quantity of food to be frozen.
After the time has elapsed place the food to be
frozen in the appliance's two top
compartments; if freezing only a small amount
of food, use the top compartment.
Once the food is completely frozen (which
could take up to 24 hours) return the fast
freeze button to the «OFF
»
position; the yellow
light  goes off.
Distribute the frozen food packages in the
other compartments, so that the top
compartments can be used for a further
freezing operation.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned foodstuffs.
Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is
already frozen.
During the freezing process, ensure that the
freezer door remains closed.
Frozen food storage
When you first start the freezer or if the freezer
has been out of use for some time, we advise
you to run your appliance for at least two hours
in the «fast freeze» mode before storing frozen
food.
To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, we strongly recommend that you
make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the
retailer and, furthermore, be sure that these
frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the
foodstore to the appliance in the shortest
possible time (a temperature increase of the
frozen food could shorten its storage period).
It is also advisable not to exceed the storage
period indicated by the producer of the food.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than is absolutely
necessary.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks
etc.), in the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer, can possibly result in
a low temperature skin burn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or "frost/freezer burns".
If there is a power failure do not open the door
during the whole time of the power failure. If
the freezer is fully loaded, the frozen food will
