Freezer compartment alarms
Freezer compartment temperature alarm
When the appliance is working or during the freezing phase, the red warning light (10) may come on in
conjunction with an acoustic signal, indicating that the freezer compartment temperature is not
optimum for food storage. This can occur in the following cases:
during start-up;
when the appliance is switched on again after defrosting and cleaning;
when too much food is placed in the freezer;
when the freezer door does not close properly.
To deactivate the acoustic signal, press the button (11).
The red light (10) will automatically go off when optimum temperature conditions are reached.
Power failure alarm
If a temperature value flashes in the freezer display (4), the acoustic signal sounds and the temperature
adjustment keys are locked. This means that a power failure has occurred for a period long enough not
to guarantee maintenance of the correct storage temperature.
The value shown on the display gives the highest temperature reached by the freezer compartment. To
eliminate the alarm and restore control panel operation, press the Acoustic Alarm button (11) and
check the food, because the compartment temperature has risen above -9°C (temperature limit for
correct food preservation).
Note:
The freezer compartment can maintain a suitable temperature for preserving food, even in case of a
power failure. In any case, it is advisable to avoid opening the compartment door during such periods.
Important:
For frozen fresh food storage times, comply with the table opposite.
When purchasing frozen food products:
Make sure the packaging is not damaged, since the food
can deteriorate. If the package is swollen or has damp
patches, it has not been stored in optimum conditions
and may have begun to thaw.
Purchase frozen food last and use thermal bags to carry
it.
Place frozen foods in the freezer compartment as soon
as you get home.
Do not refreeze partially thawed food; consume it
within 24 hours.
Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the
minimum.
Respect the expiry date given on the package.
Always follow the instructions given on the package for
storing frozen foods.
