The freezing process lasts 24 hours:
during this period do not add other food
to be frozen.
5.2 Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out
of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least
24 hours Temperature Regulator to the
Full Loaded position.
CAUTION!
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due
to a power failure, if 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 cooling).
5.3 Opening and closing the lid
CAUTION!
Never pull the handle with
immense force.
As the lid is equipped with a tightly closing
seal, it is not easy to reopen it shortly after
closing (due to the vacuum formed inside).
Wait for few minutes before reopening the
appliance.
The vacuum valve will help you to open
the lid.
5.4 Low frost system
The appliance is equipped with Low frost
system (you can see a valve inside the
freezer in the backside) what reduces ice-
build-up in the chest freezer by up to 80
percent.
5.5 Storage baskets

the freezer (A) or place them inside the
freezer (B). Turn and fix the handles for
these two positions as shown in the
picture.
