Start your appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket. The pilot light (D)
will illuminate to show that the appliance is on.
Temperature control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by
the thermostat situated at the top of the cabinet.
To operate the freezer proceed as follows:
Turn the thermostat control knob beyond the «O»
position.
When you first start the freezer, we suggest that you
turn the thermostat control to a medium setting. For
easier turning of this control, use a small coin.The
internal temperature of the freezer is automatically
adjusted by the thermostat to ensure safe food
storage.
However, if the appliance is working in unfavourable
room conditions such as
- poor ventilation,
- high temperature,
- frequent door openings,
it may be necessary to select a more suitable
setting.
To obtain a colder temperature, turn the thermostat
control to the larger ●; to obtain a warmer
temperature turn the control to the smaller ●.
Control Panel
A. Alarm light
If the alarm light (A) illuminates, it indicates that the
temperature within the freezer has reached a level
where the safe food storage is no longer ensured.
When the freezer is first switched on, the alarm light
will stay on until the temperature has dropped to a
safe level for the storage of frozen food.
B. Fast freeze light
The fast freeze light is illuminated, to show that the
fast freeze function is working.
C. Fast freeze control switch
When you place fresh food in the appliance, press
the fast freeze control switch.
D. Pilot light
The operation light is illuminated continuously, to
show that the appliance is on.
E. Thermostat control knob
Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise to
required setting.
Freezing fresh food
In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 20 kg of
fresh food.
When you first start the freezer or after a period of
non-use, press the fast freeze switch 12 hours
before you want to freeze your food (the yellow light
(B) illuminates).
If the freezer is already in operation, the fast-freeze
knob should be activated about 2-3 hours before
freezing fresh food.
This time can be shortened, depending on the
quantity of food to be frozen. After the time has
elapsed place the food to be frozen in the
compartments of the freezer (see the diagram) as
these are the coldest parts.
