STARTING
Final Check
Before you start using the freezer check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted and the product is level.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear.
3. Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE."
4. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply. Avoid
accidental disconnection by taping over the switch.
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases
sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the
compressor is running or not which is quite normal.
7. Front edges of the cabinet may feel warm. This is normal. These areas are
designed to be warm to avoid condensation.
9. 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 Notes :
1. If there is a power failure do not open the door. Frozen food should not be
affected if the failure lasts for less than 19 hours. If the failure is longer, then
the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then
re-frozen.
2. If you find the freezer door difficult to open just after you have closed it, don't
worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalise and allow the
door to open normally after a few minutes.
3. Always wrap food using a suitable packaging material before storing in your
appliance to avoid contact with the appliance surface and food remains for
hygiene reasons.
