that they should only be used
for short movements. Do not
move the appliance over long
distances on its casters.
x Clean the appliance before
connecting it to the mains.
Always unplug your
appliance before any
maintenance work. Never
pull on the power cord, but
only on the plug itself.
x Install the appliance in a dry

and the winter can prevent
your appliance from
functioning properly, or even
damage it.
x Do not place the appliance
near a source of heat, such
as an oven or a radiator.
x Leave at least 3 and 5 cm
clear around the sides and
10 cm above the appliance to
allow the air to circulate
freely.
x Place the appliance at a
suitable distance from the
wall using the spacers
contained in the bag of
accessories.
x Your appliance is
designed to function
optimally at a given ambient
temperature. In this case, it is
said to be designed for a
particular "climate class". The
climate class is shown on the
ID plate inside the appliance,
on the bottom of the left hand
wall. Beyond these
temperatures, the
performance of your
appliance may suffer.

Location
The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight
etc. Ensure that air can circulate freely around the back of the cabinet. To ensure best performance, if the
appliance is positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the minimum distance between the top of the cabi-
net and the wall unit must be at least 100 mm. Ideally, however, the appliance should not be positioned
below overhanging wall units. Accurate leveling is ensured by one or more adjustable feet at the base of
the cabinet.
Warning! It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply; the plug must
therefore be easily accessible after installation.
Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate correspond to your
domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power supply cable plug is provided with a
contact for this purpose. If the domestic power supply socket is not earthed, connect the appliance to a
separate earth in compliance with current regulations, consulting a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not observed.
This appliance complies with the E.E.C. Directives.

First use
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm
water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
Daily use
Freezing fresh food
y The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for
a long time.
y Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom compartment.
y The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate.
y The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.
Storing frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use. Before putting the product in the compartment let the
appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
Important! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the power has been off for longer than the
value shown in the technical characteristics chart under “rising time”, the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after cooked).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the freezer compartment or at room
temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer. In this case, cooking will take
longer.
Helpful hints and tips
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints:
y the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
y the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
y only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
y prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible
subsequently to thaw only the quantity required;
y wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight;
y do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter;
y lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
y water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause
the skin to be freeze burnt;
y it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you removal from the
freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
y it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the
storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:
make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the food store to the freezer in the shortest possible
time;
not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacture.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
y Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator
y Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour
