INSTALLATION

• Unpack the appliance.

• Remove the 4 spacers inserted between the

door and the appliance. (Fig 3)

• Make sure the defrost water drain plug (if provided)

is correctly positioned (E).

• For optimum appliance operation and to avoid

damage when the door is opened, leave a space

of at least 7 cm from the rear wall and 7 cm at the

sides. (Fig 4)

• Fit the accessories (if provided).

• Clean the inside of the appliance before using it.

SWITCHING ON THE APPLIANCE

• Plug in the appliance.

• When the appliance is warm (internal temperature

above 0°C), two dashes appear on the digital

display (1).

• The red alarm LED (8) blinks and the acoustic

alarm sounds.

• The “Green Intelligence” LED (6) is on.

• Press the reset button (7) to deactivate the

acoustic alarm.

• The acoustic alarm stops while the red alarm LED

continues to blink.

• When the appliance reaches a temperature of at

least -12°C the red LED (8) stops blinking.

• Food can now be placed inside the freezer.

• The “Green Intelligence” LED (6) will remain lit until

the temperature set on the display is reached.

NOTE: As the seal is tight, the appliance lid cannot

be reopened immediately after closing. Wait a few

minutes before re-opening the lid of the appliance.

• This appliance features “skin condenser”

technology: the condensing unit is integrated

into the walls of the freezer. For this reason

the side and front walls of the product may

become hot while the product is running. This

is entirely normal and also reduces the risk of

condensation forming in particularly critical

environmental conditions (see paragraph

“Troubleshooting guide”).

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

The appliance is normally factory-set for operation at

the recommended temperature of -18°C. The internal

temperature setting can be adjusted between -17°C

and -24°C or set to ECONOMY mode (see paragraph

“ECO function”). Proceed as follows:

• Press one of the two temperature adjustment

buttons (2; 3) once.

• The digital display (I) will blink, showing the

previous temperature setting.

• Press the button (3) several times as required for

a warmer temperature setting. The value changes

by 1°C with each press of the button. During this

process, the value shown on the digital display

blinks.

• Press button (2) several times as required to lower

the temperature. The value changes by 1°C with

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 memorized. 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 “e” symbol

inside the appliance (if provided). 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.

Our support team searches for useful product information and answers to frequently asked questions. If you find an inaccuracy in our frequently asked questions, please let us know by using our contact form.

If I want my freezer to be colder, should I choose for a higher or lower setting? Verified

With most freezers a higher setting means the machine will cool harder. With a lower setting, the machine will cool less hard and the temperature in the freezer will be higher.

How often should I defrost my freezer? Verified

For optimal use of the freezer it is best to defrost it once every 3-6 months. Ice on the inside of the freezer reduces the available space and increases the use of energy. The thawing process can be accelerated by placing hot water in the drawer or placing bowls of hot water in the freezer.

What does NoFrost mean? Verified

Freezers that have NoFrost technology can keep the air in the freezer dry, resulting in less ice forming inside.

I bought a new freezer, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the freezer needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

How long does it take for my freezer to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the freezer. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the freezer to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the freezer.

De door of my freezer will not close properly, why is that? Verified

The two most common causes are that the freezer is not level and that the door seal is damaged or has food remains on it. Make sure the freezer is level and check the door seal. Replace the seal if neccesary.

There is mold on the rubber seals of my freezer, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the freezer and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.
