Temperature control and adjustment

Temperature is controlled by the thermostat knob (Fig. 2). "Number 4" is the coldest setting.

The normal storage temperature of your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F). Lower temperatures may be obtained by adjusting the thermostat knob towards Position 4.

We recommend checking the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature. Remember to take the reading immediately since the thermometer temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.

Please remember that each time the door is opened cold air escapes and the internal temperature rises. Therefore never leave the door open and ensure it is closed immediately after food is put in or removed.

Before operating

Final Check

Before you start using the freezer check that:

1.The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear.

2.The interior is clean as recommended under

"CLEANING AND CARE."

3.The plug is inserted into the wall socket and the electricity supply is switched on. Avoid accidental disconnection by taping over the switch. Green and red lights will glow and the compressor will start running.

Instructions for use

And note that:

4.You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also make some noise, whether the compressor is running or not. This is quite normal.

5.If you are going to store ready-frozen food, open the freezer door and check that the fast- freeze switch is off (the amber light will not come on). The red light will go out when the freezer has reached the correct temperature. Then you can put in your ready-frozen food. (See Storing Frozen Food section).

6.If you are going to freeze fresh food, you must press the fast-freeze switch.

The amber light will come on and you must wait at least three hours before putting in your fresh food to be frozen. (See Freezing Fresh Food section).

7.We recommend setting the thermostat knob at 3 and monitoring the temperature to ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (see section "Temperature control and adjustment").

8.Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage temperature has been reached. We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment).

Important Note:

If there is a power failure do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 16 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.
