Start-up and use  
Starting the appliance  
! Warning Indicator Light. When this red warning light  
comes on for a prolonged period of time, it means that the  
freezer is not functioning properly and the temperature is  
rising too much. (Call your Service Centre)  
GB  
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation  
instructions (see Installation).  
This warning light might come on for a brief period when:  
a) the door is left open for an extended period of time  
(when the freezer is being loaded or unloaded).  
b) the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is turned to the  
“Super” setting.  
In these two cases, the fact that the warning light comes on  
does not indicate that the freezer is malfunctioning or there  
is a defect.  
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the  
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm  
water and bicarbonate.  
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the red  
ALARM and green POWER indicator lights illuminate (the  
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob must not be on “ ”).  
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the  
“Super” position: the yellow SUPER FREEZE indicator  
light will illuminate.  
Ice3 ice tray  
3. When the red indicator light switches off, turn the  
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to a medium  
position. The freezer is now ready to be used.  
The fact that they are situated on the top part of the  
freezer drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no  
longer comes into contact with the food placed inside  
the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of  
the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the  
hole after filling with water is also provided).  
1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up.  
Check that the tray is ompletely empty and fill it with  
water through the opening provided.  
2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX  
WATER LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes  
from dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to  
melt and empty the tray).  
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments  
each mould fills with water (see diagram).  
4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the  
tray back, placing the top part in the corresponding  
housing and allowing it to drop in again.  
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time  
approximately 8 hours) knock the tray against a hard  
surface and wet the outside so that the ice cubes  
come loose and take them out through the opening.  
Using the freezer to its full potential  
• Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the  
temperature (see Description).  
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already  
been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten  
(within 24 hours).  
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into  
contact with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food  
must be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE  
compartment where the temperature drops below -18°C and  
guarantees rapid freezing.  
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which  
are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they  
could break.  
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen each day  
is indicated on the data plate, which is located inside the  
freezer (for example: 4 kg per 24 hours).  
To freeze food (if the freezer is already in operation):  
- For small quantities measuring less than half of the value  
indicated on the data plate, turn the TEMPERATURE  
ADJUSTMENT knob to the SUPER (rapid freezing) position  
(the corresponding yellow indicator light will illuminate),  
place the food inside and close the door. After 24 hours,  
once the freezing process is complete, turn the knob back  
to its normal operating position.  
MAX  
WATER LEVEL  
- For large quantities measuring over half of the maximum  
value indicated on the data plate, turn the TEMPERATURE  
ADJUSTMENT knob to the SUPER position 24 hours before  
placing the food you wish to freeze inside. After another 24  
hours, once the freezing process is complete, turn the knob  
back to its normal operating position.  
! Do not open the door during freezing.  
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the  
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside  
the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9  
-14 hours.

Maintenance and care  
Switching the appliance off  
Defrosting the appliance  
GB  
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to  
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:  
! Follow the instructions below.  
Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any  
tools or electrical devices other than the scraper  
provided, you may damage the refrigeration circuit.  
1. set the TEMPERATURE CONTROL Knob on  
2. pull the plug out of the socket  
Remove frost regularly using the special scraper  
provided. If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is  
necessary to defrost manually:  
Cleaning the appliance  
1. The day before, turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT  
knob to the SUPER position (the yellow SUPERFREEZE  
indicator light will illuminate) to further cool the food.  
• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber  
seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been  
soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or  
neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive products,  
bleach or ammonia.  
2. After 24 hours, turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT  
knob to , which will switch the refrigerator off.  
• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm  
water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry  
them carefully.  
• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can  
be removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum  
cleaner set on medium power. The appliance must be  
switched off and the plug must be pulled out before  
cleaning the appliance.  
3. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in  
another freezer or in a cool place.  
4. Leave the door open until the frost has melted  
completely. This can be made easier by placing  
containers with lukewarm water in the freezer  
compartment..  
5. Certain appliances are  
fitted with the DRAIN  
SYSTEM to lead the water  
outside. Let the water flow  
into a container (see  
diagram).  
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours  
• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials  
which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free  
refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food  
must always be covered or sealed properly.  
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended  
period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors  
open.  
6. Clean and dry the  
freezer compartment  
carefully before switching  
the appliance on again.  
7. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal  
storage conditions have been restored, before  
placing food in the freezer compartment.

Precautions and tips  
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in  
compliance with international safety standards. The  
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and  
must be read carefully.  
Disposal  
GB  
• Observe local environmental standards when  
disposing packaging material for recycling purposes.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires  
that old household electrical appliances must not be  
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste  
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately  
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the  
materials they contain and reduce the impact on  
human health and the environment. The crossed out  
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of  
your obligation, that when you dispose of the  
appliance it must be separately collected.  
This appliance complies with the following  
Community Directives:  
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and  
subsequent amendments;  
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic  
Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;  
- 2002/96/CE..  
General safety  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal  
of their old appliance.  
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the  
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial  
use.  
• The appliance must be used to store and freeze food  
products by adults only and according to the  
instructions in this manual.  
Respecting and conserving the  
environment  
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in  
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the  
appliance exposed to rain and storms.  
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated  
room. Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight  
and do not place it near heat sources.  
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or  
moist hands and feet.  
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or  
opening the door too frequently in order to conserve  
energy.  
• WARNING: do not damage the refrigerant circuit.  
• Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could  
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.  
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food:  
cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved  
properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor will  
work continuously.  
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug  
from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.  
• Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the  
appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It  
is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs  
on (appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.  
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The  
internal temperature will increase and force the  
compressor to work harder and will consume more  
energy.  
• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances  
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.  
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may  
cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.  
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance).  
A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food  
products more difficult and results in increased  
energy consumption.  
• WARNING: do not use electrical or machanical devices  
or tools other than the special scraper provided inside  
the compartments.  
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to  
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air  
from escaping (see Maintenance).  
• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into  
your mouth.  
• Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play  
with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they  
be allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.  
• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It  
can become a choking or suffocation hazard.
