Operation
Before Use
Remove all packaging and securing tapes. Wash inside
the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of
soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or
detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.
Starting the Appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket. When the appliance
has reached the correct storage temperature for frozen
food, the amber indicator light will illuminate.
Amber Indicator Light
The amber light remains illuminated to indicate that the
internal temperature of the appliance is correct for safe
storage of frozen food. If the temperature is too high in
the appliance the light will go out. The light may go out
the following reasons:
•
There is a power failure
•
The lid has been recently opened
•
A large quantity of food has been added to the
appliance
•
There is a fault
Temperature Control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by the
thermostat situated on the lower front of the cabinet. To
operate the freezer, proceed as follows:-
When you first start the freezer we suggest that you turn
the thermostat to a medium setting by using a coin that
fits the groove. The correct setting can be found by
measuring the temperature of the top middle package in
the freezer. This should not have a temperature higher
than 18°C.
Min = Lowest setting, minimum cold
Max = Highest setting, maximum cold
Allow the freezer to run for several hours before placing
food inside.
Do not fill the freezer to more than 5mm below the top
edge.
Opening/Closing the Lid
The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing strip to
prevent moisture entering the freezer, which could
increase the amount of frost formed.
When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer
becomes slightly warmer and expands. When the lid is
closed again the air is cooled immediately. This may
lead to the creation of a vacuum which makes it hard to
open the lid again immediately. This is quite normal.
Wait for a few minutes until the vacuum has subsided
and then open gently. Never use excessive force on the
handle.
