Mechanical controls

In addition to a thermostat knob, the control panel contains two control lamps and a but- ton (fig. 4). Control panel design and lamp position may vary.

The green lamp is lit when power is cor- rectly supplied.

The yellow lamp is lit when the Super Freeze button has been pressed (see Super Freeze).

Starting up

Connect the appliance to the socket outlet. The green lamp lights up to indicate that power is supplied. The red lamp on the con- trol panel will also light up to indicate that the temperature inside the freezer is not yet sufficiently low.

Temperature setting

The temperature is set by turning the thermostat knob from MIN to MAX. It is recommended that a coin be used to turn the knob. The more the thermostat knob is turned towards MAX, the lower the tempera- ture. To test whether the setting is correct, measure the temperature of the uppermost item in the centre of the freezer.

It must be no warmer than –18 °C.

3.After placing fresh items in the freezer, leave Super Freeze on for a further 24 hours.

4.Then press the Super Freeze button again (the yellow lamp goes off).
