OPERATION
Freezer controls
Start your appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket. The pilot light
(C) will light up to show that the appliance is on.
Temperature control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by
the thermostat situated at the top of the cabinet (E).
To operate the freezer proceed as follows:
Turn the thermostat control beyond the «■» position.
When you first start the freezer, we suggest that you
turn the thermostat control to a medium setting. For
easier turning of this control, use a small coin.
The internal temperature of the freezer is
automatically adjusted by the thermostat to ensure
safe food storage. However, if the appliance is
working in unfavourable room conditions such as
poor ventilation, high temperature and frequent door
openings, it may be necessary to select a more
suitable setting.
To obtain a lower temperature, turn the thermostat
control towards max.; to obtain a higher temperature
turn the control towards min.
Warning light (red)
If the temperature warning light (D) lights up, it
indicates that the temperature within the freezer has
reached a level where safe food storage is no longer
ensured.
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.
Freezing fresh food
In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 18 kg
of fresh food.
When you first start the freezer, or after a period
of non-use, slide the fast-freeze switch (A) to the
left (fast freeze position) 2-3 hours before you
want to freeze your food (the yellow light (B)
lights up).
If the freezer is already in operation, the fast-
freeze switch should be activated about 24 hours
before freezing fresh food. This time can be
shortened, depending on the quantity of food to
be frozen. After the time has elapsed place the
food to be frozen in the top compartments of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.
Once the food is completely frozen (which could
take up to 24 hours) return the fast freeze switch
to the «OFF» position; the yellow light (B) goes
out.
Distribute the frozen food packages in the other
compartments, so that the top compartment can
be used for a further freezing operation.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned foodstuffs.
Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is
already frozen.
During the freezing process, ensure that the
freezer door remains closed.
