5 Indicator-lights (FIG.4)

If your appliance is equipped with indicator-lights, the following guide explains what is meant by each light up:

-green = CONTROL

The appliance is under current and operating

The green control light must always be on when the appliance is connected to the mains and switched on. It is very important to pay attention to this, because in the event of a power failure, the red and yellow lights stop operating and do no longer provide a warning.

-- red = ALARM

Interior temperature too high

If the red indicator-light goes on, there may be several reasons for this, namely:

First start-up of appliance

Restart after defrosting

Filling freezer with fresh food

In these cases it is normal that the red indicator-light goes on. It goes off automatically when the interior temperature reaches approximately –15°C.

Switch on the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH (if equipped with) (FIG.4). (switch off again not more than 24 hours later or when the red light has gone off).

Reopen the appliance, if possible, only after the red light has gone off.

If the red control light nevertheless stays on after 12 to 24 hours, there may be serious problems.

Consult the Troubleshooting guide “ what is when...” chapter at the end of this operating manual.

-yellow = SUPER FREEZE SWITCH is on and the

thermostat function is disabled.

The compressor continues cooling until the SUPER FREEZE switch is turned off again.

6Warning Buzzer (Acoustic alarm)

If your appliance is supplied with a buzzer, it will sound when the red indicator-light goes on. The buzzer is silenced automatically when you turn on the SUPER FREEZER SWITCH.

Instruction for use

7 Start-up

1.Fully unpack the appliance.

2.Remove the polystyrene parts in the compressor chamber (if supplied).

3.Remove documents and any accessories from the inside of the appliance.

4.Clean the interior with a mixture of lukewarm water and vinegar, and dry thoroughly with a cloth.

5.Close the appliance.

6.Insert the plug in the socket

7.Switch on the appliance by turning the temperature control (FIG.4) to the right (For the time being, turn the controller fully to the right to Max position).

(green and red lights go on).

8.If equipped with a SUPER FREEZE SWITCH, turn it on

(yellow light goes on too).

9.Do not open the appliance any more for about 4 hours respectively as long as the red light is on, to allow the temperature in the inner compartment to drop to the necessary level.

10.You can now fill the appliance with any amount of deep frozen food (purchased ready frozen goods). (Consult the following chapter “Maximum stacking height”).

11.Turn off the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH again after 24 hours at the latest.

12.If you wish to freeze fresh, unfrozen food, go on to the following chapter “Freezing/storage of fresh food”.

Important!

Do not store any bottles containing liquids. Liquid expands when frozen and the bottle can explode. Never keep containers with explosive substances (gas lighters, petrol, ether and the like) in the freezer compartment of the appliance.

When storing ready frozen food, you must observe the manufacturer’s instructions on the food packaging.

Deep frozen ice-cream and ice lollies must be eaten only a few minutes after being taken from the appliance to avoid injury to lips and tongue (danger of skin detachment). For the same reason, avoid touching the inner walls with wet hands. We advise you to use defrosted or slightly frozen products within short time. As a rule, such products are not suitable for re-freezing.

8 Freezing / storage of fresh food

Almost all fresh products are suitable for freezing and storage in the appliance.

For the most common of these products, we provide a table with instructions on acceptable storage times and the most suitable packing material (see “storage table” at the back of this user manual).

Label the fresh products clearly as they are not easy to identify when deep frozen in transparent freezer-bags. We advise you to use commercially available labels for frozen foods.

Pack fresh products in portions suitable for your household to prevent defrosting of quantities that are too large for consumption in one day in your household.
