GB Instruction for use
We recommend that you check the
temperature with an accurate thermometer to
ensure that the storage compartments are
kept to the desired temperature.
Remember you must take your reading very
quickly since the thermometer temperature
will rise very rapidly after you remove it from
the freezer.
Please remember each time the door is
opened cold air escapes and the internal
temperature rises. Therefore never leave the
door open and ensure it is closed immediately
after food is put in or removed.
Before operating
Final Check
Before you start using the appliance check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect
levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely
at the rear.
3. The interior is clean as recommended under
"Cleaning and care.”
4. The plug has been inserted into the wall
socket and the electricity is switched on. When
the door is open the interior light will come on.
And note that:
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the
refrigeration system may also make some
(noise), whether the compressor is running or
not. This is quite normal.
6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet is
quite normal due to the manufacturing process
used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the knob midway and
monitor the temperature to ensure the appliance
maintains desired storage temperatures (See
section Temperature Control and Adjustment).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is
switched on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We recommend
checking the temperature with an accurate
thermometer (see; Temperature Control and
Adjustment).
Storing frozen food
Your freezer is suitable for the long-term
storage of commercially frozen foods and also
can be used to freeze and store fresh food.
If there is a power failure, do not open the door.
Frozen food should not be affected if the failure
lasts for less than 14 hrs. If the failure is longer,
then the food should be checked and either
eaten immediately or cooked and then re-
frozen.
Freezing fresh food
Please observe the following instructions to
obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one
time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your
appliance in 24 h.
Placing warm food into the freezer compartment
causes the refrigeration machine to operate
continously until the food is frozen solid. This
can temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the
refrigeration compartment.
When freezing fresh food, keep the setting knob
at medium position. Small quantities of food up
to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be frozen without adjusting
the temperature control knob.
Take special care not to mix already frozen food
and fresh food.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and
place it in the freezer. Loosen frozen trays with
a spoon handle or a similar implement; never
use sharp-edged objects such as knives or
forks.
