Location The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc. Best performance is obtained with ambient temperature between +18° and +43°C (class T); +18° and +38°C (class ST); +16° and +32°C (class N); +10° and +32°C (class SN). The class of your appliance is shown on its rating plate. Make sure that there is nothing at the back, at the top and at the bottom of the appliance to obstruct air circulation. For a more efficient operation of the appliance the minimum distance between the top of the appliance and other overhanging kitchen furniture, if any, should be at least 100 mm. One or more adjustable feet mounted on the base of the appliance make it possible to set it perfectly level.

Therefore, we suggest you turn the knob (A) to a medium setting. The temperature inside the freezer is automatically adjusted to ensure safe storage of the food. However if the appliance works in unfavourable room conditions such as poor ventilation, high ambient temperature and frequent door openings, it might be necessary to select a more suitable setting. Turn knob (A) to the higher positions to obtain lower temperatures and, conversely, to the lower positions if a less cold temperature is required. Freezer operation can be halted by turning knob (A) to position «O». Blue: normal Red: alarm Fig. 8 °C -30 -18 0 D072 Quick freezing Slide switch (B) (Fig. The pilot lamp (E) will then light up. Warning light (D) (Fig. 7) This light warns when the temperature inside the freezer has increased so much as to jeopardize the preservation of food. When the appliance is switched on for the first time or when food is placed in the compartment for freezing, this light remains on until the temperature has reached the level required for correct storage. Internal thermometer This indicates the internal temperature of the freezer. [. . . ] Wrap the foods in foil or polythene film, ensuring that the wrapping adheres closely to the food and is well sealed. In this way, by avoiding contact with air, the colour flavour and nutritional value of the foods remain intact. During the freezing process, do not add further foods for freezing and do not open the freezer door. The foods for freezing should not be placed in contact with already frozen foods, but put in the special freezing compartment. [. . . ]
