Know your appliance The appliance you have just bought, which is marked by the symbol, allows perfect freezing of fresh and cooked foods, the production of ice cubes and the storage of commercially pre-packed frozen foods. The appliances fitted with super insulation have been designed to grant high performances with a reduced energy consumption. [. . . ] In this case, the wire which is coloured GREEN AND YELLOW must be connected to the EARTH contact, and the other two wires to the pins, irrespective of colour. Connect the appliance to the mains and adjust the thermostat control knob ባ or ቧ (Fig. If your appliance is provided with the exterior thermometer ብ, the normal operation is indicated by the switching on of one or more green pilot lamps; dependent on the tempeature inside the freezer. When the appliance is first connected to the mains, the red light ቦ only will flash. It will switch off when the green pilot lamps of the thermometer light up, indicating that the appliance is ready to be loaded with foods to be stored. If your appliance is not provided with an exterior thermometer, the normal operation is indicated by the green light ቩ. When the freezer is first connected to the mains, the green pilot lamp ቩ and the red pilot lamp ቨ will be illuminated. When the red pilot lamp switches off, the appliance can be loaded with foods to be stored. Freezing-in The maximum quantity, in Kg, of foods which can be frozen in 24 hours, at an ambient temperature of 25°C, is stated on the rating plate (Fig. If you need to freeze the maximum quantity suggested, we recommend you switch on the fast freeze facility ቢ or ቫ (yellow pilot lamp ቤ or ቪ alight), 24 prior to introducing foods to be frozen and to let on for the next 24 hours. At completion of freezing, disconnect the fast freeze switch (yellow pilot lamp off). If you need to freeze very small quantities of food, it is not necessary to switch on the fast freeze facility. Do not store warm foods in the freezer; do not re-freeze partially or totally thawed foods. Wrap foods in aluminium or polythene sheets or place them in appropriate containers. The freezer can maintain the correct storage temperature for 16-18 hours even after a power failure. Some appliances are provided with cold packs (eutectics) which have to be positioned on the top grid. They can increase the storage time in case of power failure to 25-28 hours. However, during this time, we suggest you do not open the freezer door. Note: Due to the efficacity of the door seal, it is not always possible to open the freezer door immediately after closing it. Wait some minutes before trying to open it. Production of ice cubes Fill the trays 3/4 of their depth and place them in the top compartment. If the trays stick to the bottom, do not try to detach them with sharp or cutting instruments. Attention: Do not store sealed containers or carbonated drinks into the freezer as they may explode. Some products, such as ice lollies, should not be consumed straight from the freezer. [. . . ] Note: When replacing a damaged supply cord, be sure the new cord is correctly clamped. If you have followed the above checks and your appliance still does not work properly, get in touch with the Service Division. Addresses and telephone numbers can be found on the Service Registration Card. State clearly what is wrong and the type and serial number of your appliance. [. . . ]
