Before use

·Remove all securing tapes.

·Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry the appliance thoroughly.

Do not use detergents, abrasive powders,

highly perfumed cleaning products, wax, polishes or products containing alcohol.

·Before inserting the power plug into the outlet and switching on the cabinet for the first time, leave it standing upright for about 30 minutes, or for 2 hours if it was transported horizontally. Otherwise the com- pressor may sustain damage. This time will allow the oil sufficient time to return to the compressor.

To start the freezer and thermostat control

Plug in the appliance.

Turn the thermostat control to the desired position.

1: The lowest position of the thermostat control results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet.

6: The highest position of the thermostat control results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet.

0: Off.

Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the cabinet.

Temperature inside the freezer

Switching off
