• This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its
cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by authorized
technicians.
Use
• The domestic refrigerators and freezers are
designed to be used specifically for the storage
of edible foodstuffs only.
• Best performance is obtained with ambient
temperature between +18°C and +43°C (class T);
+18°C and +38°C (class ST); +16°C and +32°C
(class N); +10°C and +32°C (class SN). The
class of your appliance is shown on its rating
plate.
Warning: when the ambient temperature is not
included within the range indicated for the class
of this appliance, the following instructions must
be observed: when the ambient temperature
drops below the minimum level, the storage
temperature in the freezer compartment cannot
be guaranteed; therefore it is advisable to use the
food stored as soon as possible.
• Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has
been thawed out.
• Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant
instructions.
• The inner lining of the appliance consists of
channels through which the refrigerant passes. If
these should be punctured this would damage the
appliance beyond repair and cause food loss. DO
NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off
frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using the
scraper provided. Under no circumstances should
solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be
allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance.
• Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the
freezer as it creates pressure on the container,
which may cause it to explode, resulting in
damage to the appliance.
27
MAINTENANCE
Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore
only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Internal cleaning
Never use metal objects for clearing your appliance
as it may get damaged.
When performing a complete defrosting, wash the
internal surfaces of the freezer with lukewarm water
and bicarbonate; rinse and then accurately dry.
External cleaning
Wash the outer body with lukewarm water and soap.
Periodically use a clearing polish to keep the outer
body shining. Dust the condenser located behind the
freezer with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. An
excessive accumulation of dust might compromise
the freezer’s efficiency.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage the
plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it
is recommended that the outer casing of this
appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a
little washing-up liquid added.
Extended periods of non-operation
Whenever the freezer is not to be used for an
extended period of time, disconnect it from the wall
socket and empty and clean the freezer. Remember
to leave the door open for the entire period of time in
which the freezer is not to be used.
Defrosting
Scrape away the frost with the plastic scraper
provided with the freezer when this layer arrives to
approximately 4 mm in height. For this operation, you
do not need to unplug the freezer or remove all
frozen foods. Whenever the layer of frost exceeds 4
mm in thickness, you must proceed to a complete
defrosting. Take advantage of the periods when you
do not trave too much food in storage to do this by
proceeding as follows:
1. Empty the freezer and temporarily store the
frozen food removed in a cool place, wrapped in
several sheets of newspaper.
2. Set the thermostat to the «O» position or unplug
the freezer from the wall socket.
3. Keep the freezer door open.
4. Use the scraper together with a collecting tray
and insert it in the lower central part of the freezer
as shown in Figure.
5. The collecting tray should be positioned directly
below in order to receive the water which will exit
during defrosting. Afterwards, dry all freezer
surfaces with care.
6. Keep the scraper for future use.
7. Re-connect the plug and set the freezer to the
quickfreezing position. After two hours you may
replace the frozen foods previously removed.
Important
Never use knives or metal objects to scrape away
accumulated frost.
An increase in the surface temperature of the frozen
foods during defrosting will notable diminish the
duration of their conservation.

Hints for freezing
• All products to be frozen must be fresh and of
excellent quality.
• Each freezing package must be adjusted to the
family’s consumption quantity in order to be used
just once.
• Small-sized freezing packages allow a more rapid
and uniform freezing.
• Do not forget that once frozen foods trave thawed
out, they spoil rapidly.
• Low-fat content foods are better conserved in the
freezer than those with higher fat content. Salt
(whenever present) reduces the duration of
satisfactory conservation.
• Foods to be frozen must be enclosed in air-tight
sacks or containers especially indicated for this
purpose.
• Close these sacks or containers tightly to
eliminate all air.
• Never piace bottles or cans of carbonated
beverages in the freezer. These might explode.
• Never introduce hot foods or liquids.
• Never fill the freezing sacks or containers with
covers to the brim.
• Do not consume certain products (popsicles, etc.)
immediately after removing them from the
freezer,because their extremely low temperature
might cause burns.
• Indicate the freezing date on every sack or
container as a means of controlling conservation
times.
• Never open the freezer door or introduce new
foods to be frozen whenever a Quick-freezing
phase is already in progress.
• The symbols on the drawers show different types
of frozen goods. The numbers indicate storage
times in months for the appropriate types of
frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of
the indicated storage time is valid depends on the
quality of the foods and pre-treating before
freezing.
HINTS
Hints for storage of frozen food
• Always check the preparation date indicated on
the frozen foods you buy and respect the
expiration time provided by the producer.
• Do not open the freezer door too often and leave
it open only for the minimum time necessary.
Unnecessary increases in temperature will
notably reduce the duration of the frozen food
conservation.
• Make sure that all frozen food packages are
intact; otherwise the food may trave spoiled.
• If such packages present signs of swelling or
humidity marks, this means that the food has not
been conserved correctly, implying that the
product has lost some of its original quality.
• When buying frozen foods, carry them in a
thermally insulated shopping bag whenever
possible. In any case, always purchase frozen
foods at the end of your shopping. Wrap the
frozen foods in newspaper and then put them into
the freezer as soon as you arrive home.
• Always check the frozen foods you buy carefully
at the moment of purchase, because even
partiallythawed foods must not be re-frozen but
must be consumed within 24 hours of purchase.

Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature
(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob towards
minimum or reduced (colder) by rotating the knob
towards maximum. However, the exact setting should
be chosen keeping in mina that the temperature
inside the refrigerator depends on:
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored;
location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position «
0
».
Fast freezing
For quick-freezing, turn the N/S knob (A) to the «S»
symbol. The quick-freezing indicator light (D) will
then light up.
Warning light
Warning light (E) lights up when the temperature
inside the freezer compartment has increased to a
value which might endanger the long-term storage of
food in the compartment. When the appliance is
switched on for the first time or when food is placed
in the compartment for freezing, it is normal for this
light to remain on until the temperature has reached
the level required for correct storage.
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash
the interior and all internal accessories with luke-
warm water and some neutral soap so as to remove
the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry
thoroughly.
Do not use detergents or abrasive
powders, as these will damage the finish.
USE
This freezer has been marked with the symbol, which means that it is suited to the freezing of fresh
foods, the conservation of frozen foods and the production of ice-cubes.

25
Cold accumulator
A cold accumulator is supplied in the freezer; this
increases the leght of time for which food will keep in
the event of the power failure or breakdown. It must
be placed in the top drawer.
Freezing food
Set the freezer to quick-freezing operational status.
Wait at least 3 hours before introducing fresh foods
into the freezer if it has only recently been turned on.
If the freezer has already been working for some
time, turn the respective knob to the «S» position at
least 24 hours before introducing the food into the
freezer in order to ensure better freezing results. This
period of time may be shortened according to the
quantity of food. When quick-freezing is being
performed, the compressor works continuously,
employing all of its refrigerating power to the
maximum. Keep the knob as it is for another 24
hours after the introduction of the food into the
freezer and then return the knob to the «N» position.
Bear in mind the freezing capacity of your freezer;
that is, the maximum quantity of food that may be
frozen in 24 hours. This freezing capacity is 22 kg.
Distribute the packages in the two upper baskets.
Arrange the foods to be frozen in the upper
compartments. When the necessary freezing time
has elapsed, distribute the newly-frozen foods into
the drawers to free the compartments for new foods
to be frozen.
Important
When electrical current happens to be cut off, the
freezer door must not be opened. If the power failure
is short (up to 6-8 hours) and the freezer is full, there
is no risk that the food will spoil. If the power failure
lasts longer, the food must be consumed as rapidly
as possible, or otherwise cooked and re-frozen
again.
Frozen food storage
When the freezer is being turned on for the first time,
or after a prolonged period of disuse, turn the N/S
knob to the Quick-freezing position and then wait at
least two hours before introducing the food to be
conserved.You may then return the knob to the «N»
position. This two-hour waiting period may be
avoided if the freezer has already been in operation.
Thawing out frozen foods
Frozen foods must be allowed to thaw out before use
either in the refrigerator (meat, poultry, fish, etc.) or
at room temperature (ali other foods) according to
the available time. Frozen products which come in
small-sized or separate packages may be cooked
directly without thawing; obviously, in this case, the
cooking time will fast a little longer.
Ice-cube production
Fill the trays with water to 3/4 of their height, to
permit the expansion of the ice, then put them in the
space below the quick-freezing compartment (see
the diagram). If the water in your area is rich in
minerai salts (limestone, in particular), we advise you
to use noncarbonated mineral water for the
production of ice cubes. The ice-cubes may be
shaken out of the plastic trays with a slight twist.
