OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE Temperature Control • Your appliance has only one control for regulating the temperature in the fresh food and the freezer compartment. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand side of the fresh food section. • The range of the temperature control is from position"1" the warmest to "7" the coldest. • The first time you turn the unit on set the temperature control to “7” or the max-position.
• • • • • • • • Carefully select food you intend to freeze; it should be of adequate quality and suitable for freezing. Use correct packaging and wrap it right. The packaging should be airtight and shouldn’t leak since this could cause substantial vitamin loss and dehydration of foods. Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the foods. When preparing foods to be frozen, consider sanitary precautions. Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of foods and the date of loading.
• • • • • • • • Energy Saving Tips The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight. Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil. Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance.
