SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES These warnings are provided to improve safety, and should be read carefully before installing or using your freezer. IMPORTANT It is vital that these instructions are kept with the freezer for future use. If the freezer is sold or given to another user, or if you move and leave the freezer behind, you must ensure that the instructions accompany the freezer to enable the next user to use the freezer correctly and read the relevant warnings.
INSTALLATION POSITION Place the freezer horizontally on a firm surface, resting on all four plastic feet. Use a wooden block or similar object to compensate for any bumps/holes in the surface. The room should be dry and adequately ventilated. If the room temperature exceeds 32°C, or falls below freezing point, the freezer will not function as it should. Do not place the freezer close to sources of heat, radiators, chimneys, etc., and do not place the freezer in direct sunlight.
HOW TO USE TEMPERATURE CONTROL CONTROL PANEL The thermostat ensures that the required temperature is maintained in the freezer. Adjust the temperature by turning the button with a coin that fits the groove. Turning the thermostat button towards MAX makes the temperature in the freezer colder, and turning the button towards MIN makes the temperature warmer. The correct setting can be found by measuring the temperature of the top package in the middle of the freezer.
HOW TO USE PACKAGING AND POSITIONING Food must be cold before freezing (no more than room temperature). Food must be packed in airtight and moisture-proof packaging to prevent it from drying out. Place fresh food for freezing close to the cold sides of the freezer, making sure that it is not in contact with the frozen food already in the freezer. BASKET The baskets are designed for the storage of food which has already been frozen. The handles can be placed in two positions, as shown in the drawings.
HELPFUL HINTS STORAGE Frozen food can be stored anywhere inside the freezer, but should be kept at least 5 mm below the top edge. Never exceed the maximum storage time for purchased frozen food. When you buy frozen food, make sure that it has been stored at the correct temperature. Do not buy products which have wet or damaged packaging. Place purchased products in your freezer as quickly as possible. We recommend using an insulated bag to bring such products home with you.
MAINTENANCE DEFROSTING HOW TO CLEAN YOUR FREEZER INSIDE The formation of frost on the inside of freezers cannot be avoided. Frost is formed when moisture contained in the air comes into contact with the cold surfaces of the freezer. Consequently, the lid should only be opened when necessary, and it should never be left open. A thin layer of ice or frost does not affect the function of the freezer adversely, and can be removed carefully using the scraper provided.
IF SOMETHING DOES NOT WORK IF YOUR FREEZER DOES NOT FUNCTION SATISFACTORILY Check the following before calling for service staff: Defect: Freezer not cold enough Check if: Green light not on Green and red light on Freezer too cold Too much frost formed Green light on, red light not on Yellow light on Yellow light not on Lid does not close completely Lot of moisture in the room Goods packed poorly Possible cause: Plug not connected correctly Defect in switch or fuse Power failure Fresh food recently pla
