Daily use

Connect the appliance to the mains power supply.The ideal temperatures for preserving food havealready been set at the factory (3-5/MED).

Note: After switching the appliance on, it will benecessary to wait for 2 to 3 hours before atemperature suitable for a standard appliance loadis reached.

Cooling hotfoods before freezing saves energy and prolongsthe life of the appliance.

If the appliance is not going to be usedDisconnect the appliance from the power supply,remove all the food, defrost and clean. Leave thedoors open enough for air to circulate inside thecompartments. This will prevent the formation ofmould and bad odours.

In case of power failuresKeep the doors of the appliance closed. In this waythe stored food will stay cold as long as possible.Do not refreeze partially thawed food, consume itwithin 24 hours.

ENGLISH 8
