Starting your appliance

Insert the plug into the wall socket. The appliance can be activated by turning the thermostat knob (2) beyond the Ò-16¡CÓ position. When the pilot light (1) is illuminated this shows that the appliance is on.

The freezer is switched off by turning knob (2) to position Ç●È.

When first switching on the appliance, the fast freeze function will automatically switch on. It will remain on for 5 hours and automatically switch off at the end of this time. This function can manually be switched off at any time by pressing the fast freeze button (4).

Temperature control

The temperature inside the freezer is regulated by a thermostat with 5 temperature positions and one ÇOFFÈ (●) position.

Position Ç-16¡CÈ = minimum cold Position Ç-24¡CÈ = maximum cold

Turn the thermostat control knob to the required position.

An intermediate position (-18¡C) is usually the most

suitable, although the temperature will be affected by:

¥Room temperature

¥How often the door is opened

¥How much food is stored

¥Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting all these factors have to be considered and some experimentation may be necessary.

To obtain a lower temperature, turn the thermostat control knob to the higher numbers; to obtain a higher temperature turn the control knob to the lower numbers.

When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilise before making further changes.

Warning light (red)

If the temperature warning light (5) lights up, it indicates that the temperature within the freezer has reached a level where safe food storage is no longer ensured (warmer than -12¡C).

When the freezer is first switched on, the warning light will stay on until the temperature has dropped to a safe level for the storage of frozen food.
