IMPORTANT:
When you press the fast freeze switch,
there may be a short delay before the
compressor starts to operate. This
is normal and does not indicate a
compressor fault.
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.
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 which is 10 kg
(22 lb)
Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the refrigeration
compressor to operate continuously
until the food is frozen solid.
If you are going to freeze fresh food
in excess of 2kg. (4.5 lb) turn the
thermostat knob to the fast freeze
position and wait for about 24 hours
before placing the fresh food in the
freezer.
Remember to turn the thermostat
knob back to its previous position
once food has frozen.
It is recommended to place fresh
food to be frozen in fast freeze
compartment of the freezer.
Take special care not to mix already
frozen food and fresh food.
Operating temperatures are controlled
by the thermostat knob (see diagram)
located on the inner side wall of the
freezer compartment. Settings may
be made from 1, 2 ... fast freeze, fast
freeze being the coldest position.
When the appliance is switched
on for the first time, the thermostat
knob should be adjusted so that
after 24 hours, the average freezer
temperature is no higher than -18°C
(0°F). We recommend you set the
knob half way between the 1 and 4
setting. Lower temperatures may be
obtained by adjusting setting knob
towards fast freeze position.
We recommend that you check
the temperature with an accurate
thermometer to ensure that the
storage compartments are kept to the
desired temperature.
