Starting up and temperature regulation

Turn the thermostat control knob (1) in the direction of “1”.

The green light (3) and the red light (4) come on, the audible warning sounds (if fitted), and the refrigeration motor starts up.

Additionally operate the fast-freeze switch (6).

The yellow pilot light (5) comes on, the audible warning switches off, and the freezer motor runs continuously.

Only when the red light (4) has gone out should you reset the fast- freeze switch (6) the yellow light (5) goes out and the audible warning is activated again.

The temperature regulator (1) can be used to set the required storage temperature, -18°C or colder.

Setting “1” means:

highest, warmest internal temperature

Setting “4” means:

lowest, coldest internal temperature

Recommended regulator setting: 1.5 to 2.

Important: Regularly check on the red temperature pilot light (4) and the thermometer that the required storage temperature is being main- tained.

Ice pack

There is an ice pack in one drawer of the freezer.

Refer to the section “Prior to Initial Start–Up” concerning freezing of the ice pack.

In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice pack will lengthen the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to defrost by several hours.

The ice pack can only fulfil this task if it is placed in the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food.

You can use the ice pack for cooling cold bags.

Freezing and storing frozen food

You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.

Important!

The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18°C or colder before freezing food.
