Use
Chest frezer is used for frezing fresh foods and
storing frozen foods.
Operation Modes
By means of operation mode selection switch you
select one of the two operation modes:
continuous and automatic.
Continuous operation - the yellow
light is on.
The cooling systems operates continuously with
accelerated power.This mode is selected when
you want to freeze up bigger quantities of fresh
foods and when you wish deeply freeze already
frozen foods.
Automatic operation - the yellow
light is off.
The interior temperature is controlled by the
thermostat which turns the cooling system
operation on and off.
The frequency of switching the cooling system on
and off depends on:
the thermostat knob position (thermostat
setting),
frequency of the lid opening,
ambient temperature.
Switching on the Empty Freezer
Switch the appliance on and turn the operation
mode switch to continuous operation. All three
control lights are on. Introduce fresh foods into
the freezer a few hours after the red light went off.
Freezing of Fresh Foods
Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed
food, correct temperature and taking into account
hygienic precautions will substantially influence
the quality of freezing the food or storing of the
frozen foodstuffs.
Foods suitable for freezing and withstanding low
temperatures are to be selected.
x Food of high quality should be used.
x Only fresh fruit and vegetables should be
frozen.
x Put the foods in suitable packages and pack
them properly.
x Packages should be air and moisture tight
otherwise the contents could become dry as
well as vitamin losses could appear.
x Foils and bags should be soft to fit tight to the
contents.
x Freezing containers should be tightly closed.
x The most important is that the food freeze in
the shortest possible period. Therefore it is
recommended that the packs are not too big
and that food is cooled down before putting into
the freezer.
1. Freezing procedure
x One day before freezing of foods place the
switch on the position for continuous operation
(yellow light is on). After that time you can
introduce fresh foods into the freezer.
x Approximately 24 hours after the last
introduction of fresh foods into the freezer, set
the switch to the position for automatic
operation (yellow light is off).
Freezing Capacity
The quantity of fresh foods which can be frozen at
one time in 24 hours is indicated in the rating plate.
If the quantity is bigger that the rated one, the quality
of freezing will be worse and the temperature of the
stored frozen foods will get higher.
2. Later Freezing of Fresh Foods
Repeat the freezing procedure 1. Care should be
taken that fresh foods do not get in direct contact
with already frozen packs.
3. Freezing Smaller Quantities of
Fresh Foods
If you wish to freeze up a small quantity of food
(1-2 kg), you do not need to place the switch on
the position for continuous operation.
Storage of Frozen Foods
Operation mode selection switch is set to
automatic operation (yellow light is off).
Frozen Foods Storage Time
Frozen food storage time is the period in which a
frozen food still preserves its initial quality or
better the period in which microbiological and
biochemical deterioration has not occurred yet.
Storage times are different for different kinds of
food, subject to composition, quality and age of
individual foods.
The content of grease substantially shortens the
storage time. You can, for example, store lean
meat for 12 months while fatty meat can be
stored for 4 to 6 months only.
