OPERATION

To obtain the best possible results for your upright freezer, it is important that you operate it properly.

Temperature Control

The temperature in the upright freezer is controlled by the thermostat control knob. The thermostat control box is located in the compressor compartment at the back of the unit. To operate this control, turn the thermostat control knob up or down to regulate the temperature inside the upright freezer. The “1 – 6” numbers and “OFF” markings on control knob indicates the different temperature settings. Position “1” being the warmest and position “6” being the coldest.

NOTE: The temperature will not go above freezing even when unit is set to "1" setting.

Normal Sounds

Your new upright freezer may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making them.

Ratting noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line, items stored on top of the upright freezer can also make noises.

The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.

As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your upright freezer

Store Frozen Food

When using the upright freezer for the first time or after defrosting, turn the temperature control to set “6” for at least two hours before introducing the food to be stored.

All frozen food products you purchase should be placed in the upright freezer as soon as possible to avoid the frozen food from defrosting.

Storage recommendation printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufacturers should be always be followed.

The maximum amount of food your freezer is designed to freeze at one time is approximately 3 pounds (1.5 kg) per cubic foot of freezer capacity.

Freezing Fresh Food

Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not sterilize the food. It is advisable to freeze the food by packing it into separate meal portions and not in bulk form. Never put hot or warm food stuffs into the upright freezer. Prior to storing the frozen food, pack it in plastic bags, aluminum sheets or freezing containers and place into the upright freezer.

Note: Never put bottled food or drinks in the upright freezer compartment.

For best performance, leave enough space inside the freezer compartment for air to circulate around the packages.
