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.

STORING FROZEN FOOD
Prepacked commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the
frozen food manufacturer's instructions for a frozen food storage
compartment.
The freezing area is marked with symbol on the door liner.
To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the
food retailer is maintained the following should be remembered:
1. Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
2. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best Before" dates on the packaging.
3. Please note that drawers, baskets, flaps, trays are all removable.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT
There are three coloured indicator lights located inside the appliance which show the operating
mode of the freezer.
Green Indicator (1)
Illuminates when the appliance is connected to the mains and will glow as long as there is
electricity present. The green light will not glow if the thermostat is set in the 'O' position.
The green indicator does not give any indication of the temperature inside the freezer.
Amber Indicator (2)
This indicator will glow when the fast-freeze switch (4) is on and will continue to glow until
the fast-freeze switch is turned off. The compressor will run continuously whilst the fast-freeze
switch is on. Fast-freeze operation is for freezing fresh food (see Freezing Fresh Food, section).
Red Indicator (3) Illuminates:
a. If the pre-set temperature can not be maintained.
b. If the appliance is overloaded with fresh food.
c. If the appliance door is left open accidentally.
Thermostat knob (5)
The thermostat knob is located on the indicator light frame.
Important:
When you press the fast-freeze switch, there may be a short delay before the compressor
starts to operate. This is normal and not a compressor fault.
