[. . . ] For your appliance to operate optimally, install it away from any heat sources and ensure that air can circulate well all around it (see "Installing your appliance"). Important: Before installing your appliance please carefully read the safety instructions in order to avoid some minor inconveniences. Install the appliance in a dry, well-ventilated room, away from any heat source. Leave a minimum distance of 10cm between the top of your appliance and any unit above it. [. . . ] ⷠSlide the door onto the pin for the upper hinge and close it. ⷠInsert the pin for the lower hinge and screw it down tightly. ⷠIf your appliance is fitted with a vertical handle, ensure that you move it over to the opposite side. Fit the handles on the doors, positioning them opposite the respective holes and fasten them with the screws provided as shown in the diagram below. Once the handles are in place, insert the screw covers supplied in the spaces provided for this purpose To install your appliance under a worktop, you may need to remove its top. The appliance must always be disconnected when you proceed to remove the removable top. ⷠFree the top by lifting it at the back and sliding it gently forwards. ⷠNEVER introduce volatile, inflammable or explosive fluids such as alcohol, acetone or petrol because of the risk of explosion. ⷠDo not freeze too large an amount of food at one time; the faster the food is frozen, the more of its qualities are preserved. ⷠEnsure that you package your items correctly before freezing them so that they keep all their flavour and do not spoil the other products. This appliance also has 3 indicator lights to help you to use it: The time that frozen food can be kept depends on the type of food. Do not open the door and insert new items for freezing when the appliance is already freezing other items. ⷠNote the frozen products' production date and comply with the storage times the manufacturer indicates. ⷠAvoid opening the door too often and never leave it open longer than necessary: a rise in temperature can reduce the item's conservation times quite significantly. ⷠIf a pack swells up or shows traces of dampness, this means that it has not been kept at a suitable temperature and has lost its original qualities. ⷠIt is advisable to pay particular attention when purchasing frozen food because defrosted, or even partially defrosted, items cannot be refrozen. ON / OFF The green light illuminated as soon as your freezer is plugged in unless your thermostat is set to 0. Quick Freeze This function enables you to freeze a large amount of food at one time. We recommend that you switch this on 24 hours before you put in the food and that you keep it on for 24 hours afterwards. To switch on the Quick Freeze function, all you have to do is press the switch behind the door, next to the thermostat. In super freezing mode, the compressor operates continuously in order to obtain maximum benefit from its refrigeration output. Keep the freezer in this mode for 24 hours after introducing the food to be frozen and then switch over to normal operation. [. . . ] Also do not put any of the interior's accessories in the dishwasher. ⷠWe recommend that you dust the back of the appliance with a cloth once a year because if it is dirty, your refrigerator's output reduces and its consumption increases. There are some noises that it is quite normal for a freezer to make: · The refrigerant gas can produce a gurgling sound as it travels through the circuits. The compressor may produce a buzzing noise, which can be more noticeable during start-up. [. . . ]
