Alarm off button and the red signal lamp (3)
The sound of the alarm is switched off by pressing the Alarm
Off button. The alarm goes off because of high temperature
inside the freezer (red signal lamp is on), or because of the
excessive dust collected at the condenser (red signal lamp is
off).
Consult the Section Troubleshooting Guide
Temperature Selection
When the freezer operates automatically, the interior
temperature is controlled by the thermostat.
The most suitable thermostat position is in the middle between
max (7) and min (1).
We recommend setting the thermostat on positions towards
max (7) only in case you want to accelerate cooling, as for
example before loading smaller amounts of fresh foods or
when the operation mode shall correspond to the ambient
temperature.
Use
Starting the empty freezer
Switch the freezer on. Sound alarm is on because of
inappropriate temperature. It may be switched off by pressing
the alarm button
.
Put the mode selection switch to the continuous operation
position. All three signal lamps are on. Place fresh food into the
freezer several hours after the red signal lamp goes off.
Freezing 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.
• Carefully select food to be frozen: it should be of adequate
quality and suitable for freezing.
• Choose correct packaging for each kind of food and pack it
correctly.
− The packaging should be air tight and well sealed
without leaking since this could cause substantial
vitamin loss and dehydration.
− Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap
around the food.
• Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of
foods and the date of loading.
• It is most important that the food is frozen as quickly as
possible. We therefore recommend the size of the package
not to be too large and to be cooled before loading into the
freezer.
• The amount of the fresh foods that can be loaded in the
freezer within 24 hours is stated on the rating plate. If the
loaded amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced
which affects the quality of frozen foods.
12
Thermostat settings towards min (1) help you save energy
provided that the freezer is loaded with smaller amount of
frozen foods.
Changes of the ambient temperature affects temperature in the
interior of the appliance. Choose correct setting of the
thermostat knob.
Proper freezing procedure
Freeze the food in the freezing compartment (see Section
Description of the Appliance)
• 24 hours prior freezing of fresh food switch the continued
operation button (2) to the uninterrupted operation (yellow
lamp is on). At the end of this period load fresh food into the
freezing compartment.
• After 24 hours move the frozen food to the storage
compartment of the freezer and repeat the freezing
procedure with new load if required. Fresh food should not
touch the already frozen packages.
• Approximately 24 hours after the last loading of fresh food
press the continued operation button again (2) and switch to
the automatic operation (yellow signal lamp is off).
• In case of freezing minor quantities of fresh food (1-2 kg), it
is not necessary to switch the appliance to the continued
operation mode (2).
Storage of frozen food
Store the already frozen food in the storage compartment of
the freezer. The bottom basin of the appliance is also intended
for storage purposes. Storage baskets may be removed at
random and food may be placed directly upon the cooling
shelves.
Storing Commercially Frozen Foods
The storage time and recommended temperature for storing
commercially frozen foods is indicated on the packaging. For
storing and use consider manufacturer's instruction.
When shopping, be careful and choose only packages of foods
which are adequately packed and provided with complete data
and stored in freezers where the temperature is not higher than
-18°C.
Do not buy packages of food wrapped with frost. This indicates
that the package was thawed before at least once. Take care
that packages don't start to thaw. Temperature rise shortens
the storage time of commercially frozen foods.
