The achieved temperatures can vary according to the conditions of use of the appliance, such as: place of the appliance,
ambient temperature, and frequency of lid opening, extent of filling with food of the freezer. The position of the thermostat
knob will change according to these factors. Normally, for an ambient temperature of approx. 77 degrees F, the thermostat
should be adjusted to the mild position.
We recommended that you check the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the Freezer is 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 lid is opened cold air escapes and the internal temperature rises. Therefore, never leave the
lid open and ensure it is closed: immediately after Food is put in or removed.
Indicator lights
The indicator light set is placed on the front side of the freezer for easy visibility.
Indicator lights mean the following:
- Red Lightshows that the appliance is supplied with electric energy.
- Green Light shows that the compressor is working.
STORING FROZEN FOOD
Prepackaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer’s instructions for a
freezer compartment.
To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained the following
should be remembered:
1Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
2Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best Before” dates on the packaging.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Place fresh food to be frozen near the side walls to ensure fast freezing and away from already frozen food, if possible.
Never exceed this maximum capacity. 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 centre as quickly as possible.
Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.
DEFROSTING
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has formed.
Alternatively you may switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.
Extract the water conduit and put in a water container.
6 hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat knob at “MAX” position to make sure the food is at the lowest
temperature when you get it out. All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g.
fridge or larder).
Remove the freezer basket. Leave the lid open. Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up
the defrosting.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting. When defrosting has finished flow
out defrost water which collects at the bottom of the freezer as the below diagram and dry the interior thoroughly. Switch on
the Fast Freeze and leave it on for about three hours.
1. A drain outlet is designed at the bottom of the freezer liner, and when defrosting, remove its rubber
cover (you can find the rubber
cover in the freezer accessory bag and be sure to install it by yourself), then the defrosting water flows out and is dischar
ged from the drain pipe. (NOTES: PLEASE KEEP THE RUBBER COVER WELL DURING THE DEFROSTING AND
PUT IT BACK AFTER DEFROSTING IS DONE )
2. Extract the water conduit by 20-25mm until the water hole can be seen.
3. Twist the water conduit until the arrow points downward.
4. After defrosting is done, make sure there is no more water coming out before out the water conduit in place and make
the arrow point upward.
Important Notes:
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting.
It is normal that water beads or frosts appear on the freezer collar and door gaskets in the wet weather, which will not affect
the normal use. In such case, please clean it with a dry cloth in time!
CLEANING AND CARE
** We recommend that you switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug before cleaning.
** Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.
** Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of the freezer and wipe it dry.
