Manual

FREEZER USE

Before putting frozen food inside the cavity please check

that the product is set as freezer (see “Temperature

adjustment” paragraph) and red light doesn’t light up.

BEFORE SWITCHING FROM COOLER USE TO FREEZER

USE PLEASE CHECK THAT FOOD OR BOTTLES ARE NOT

PRESENT INSIDE THE CAVITY TO AVOID UNWANTED

FOOD FROSTING OR BOTTLE CRACKING.

Refer to the table on the appliance.

Classication of frozen foods

Load and classify the frozen foods; it is advisable to indicate

the storage date on the packs, to ensure consumption before

the expiry dates listed in months in Fig. 6 for each type of food.

Advice for storing frozen food

When purchasing frozen food products:

• Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen food in

damaged packaging may have deteriorated).

If the package is swollen or has damp patches, it may not

have been stored under optimal conditions and defrosting

may have already begun.

• When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and

transport the products in a thermally insulated cool bag.

• Once at home, place the frozen foods immediately in the

appliance.

• Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum.

Respect the best-before date on the package.

• Always observe the storage information on the package.

Note:

Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately.

Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it has

thawed. Once cooked, the thawed food can be refrozen.

If there is a long power failure:

• Do not open the appliance lid except to place ice packs

(if provided) over the frozen foods on the right and

left of the appliance. This will slow down the rise in

temperature.

FROZEN FOOD STORAGE

FREEZING FOOD

Before freezing food inside the cavity please check that the

product is set as freezer (see “Temperature adjustment”

paragraph) and red light doesn’t light up.

Preparation of fresh food for freezing

• Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in: aluminium foil, cling

lm, air and water-tight plastic bags, polyethylene containers

with lids, provided they are suitable for freezing foods.

• Food must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in order to

obtain high quality frozen food.

• Fresh vegetables and fruit should preferably be frozen as soon

as they are picked to maintain the full original nutritional value,

consistency, colour and avour.

• Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the appliance.

Freezing fresh food

• Place foods to be frozen in direct contact with the walls of

appliance (g 5):

A. foods to be frozen

B. foods already frozen.

• Avoid placing foods to be frozen in direct contact with food

already frozen.

• For best and fastest freezing, foods should be split into small

portions; this will also be useful when the frozen items are to

be used.

1. At least 24 hours before storing fresh food in the appliance, press

the fast freeze button.

2. Place the food to be frozen and keep the lid of the appliance

closed for 24 hours. The fast freeze function automatically

deactivates after about 50 hours.

APPLIANCE DEFROSTING

The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of

ice on the walls reaches 5-6 mm.

• Disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

• Remove food from the appliance and put it in a very cool place

or a thermally insulated bag.

• Leave the appliance door open.

• Remove the internal defrost water drain plug (depending on

model) (Fig. 8).

• Remove the external defrost water drain plug (depending on

model) and reposition it as shown in g. 8).

• Use the separator (depending on model) inside the product as a

recipient for any remaining water, (D) as shown in g. 8. If there is

no separator, use a shallow container.

• Defrosting can be sped up by using a spatula to detach the frost

from the appliance walls.

• Remove the frost from the bottom of the appliance.

• In order to avoid permanent damage to the appliance interior,

do not use pointed or sharp metal instruments to remove the

ice.

• Do not use abrasive products or heat up the interior articially.

• Dry the inside of the appliance thoroughly.

• Ret the plug after defrosting.

HANGING THE LID LIGHT BULB IF PROVIDED

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply.

• Remove the diuser by following the sequence of steps shown

in the gure.

• Unscrew the light bulb and replace it with an identical bulb of

the same wattage and voltage.

• Ret the diuser and plug in the appliance.

In this case, we recommend closing any liquid lled containers

(e.g.: sauce pans full of stock), wrapping foods with a high

liquid content (e.g.: vegetables).

IMPORTANT: when using the product as a cooler please

check that the fast freeze function is not activated in order

to avoid bottle cracking.

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.
