Before plugging the appliance into the electrical outlet for the first time,
leave the appliance to rest for 2 hours, to allow the refrigerant gas to stabilise
in the compressor. Not respecting this waiting period may damage the
compressor.

IMPORTANT: every time the appliance is shut down, wait 5 minutes before
switching it on again, so as not to damage the compressor.
•
We advise you to set the thermostat to the "NORMAL" mark for normal
everyday use. This setting is good for storing frozen food and maintains the
temperature in the freezer at -18°C.
•
Do not open the door of the appliance for the first 30 minutes. Leave the freezer
running empty for about 1 to 2 hours (depending on the room temperature).
•
In order to use the freezer when the appliance is first switched on or after a
prolonged period of non-use, set the thermostat to the "MAX" mark for about
2 hours before adding the frozen and deep-frozen products. Then turn the
thermostat back to its usual position.
•
The temperature inside the appliance is a function of several factors, such as
the room temperature, the quantity of food stored, the frequency of the door
opening, etc.
NOTE: when the thermostat is set to MAX, you may hear the compressor running
more often.
