Operation

Switching On Your Unit

1. On first connecting the mains cable to the
mains socket, all 3 status indicators will
light up. Once the unit reaches the correct
temperature:
• Power Indicator: stays on
• Run Indicator: switches on and off as the
unit maintains its internal temperature
• Alarm Indicator: lights up when the unit's
internal temperature rises above -9°C.
2. The internal temperature of your freezer
is controlled by a thermostat. Adjust the
thermostat control dial to the desired position,
6 makes the appliance colder and is used for
fast freezing. The ideal position is 4 but should
be adjusted according to its environment. The
appliance may not operate correctly if it is in a
particularly hot or cold room or if the door is
opened often or for prolonged periods.
3. To ensure that the unit is cool enough to
sufficiently freeze your food, wait 24 hours
before filling it with food.
4. If you are concerned that your unit is not being kept
cold enough and wish to check the temperature, you
will need a special fridge/freezer thermometer. These
are available from most supermarkets and hardware
shops. Place the thermometer in the freezer and leave
overnight. The correct temperature for the freezer should be -18°C or lower.

Adjusting the Temperature

The internal temperature of the unit is controlled by a thermostat. The recommended position is
between 2 and 3 for colder working environments (i.e. during winter) and between 4 and 5 for
hotter environments. Please adjust according to the environment.

Freezing

Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. Turn the dial to 6 so your freezer will operate
at the coldest temperature (approximately -28°C) continuously. It helps to quickly freeze and
retain more of the goodness of your food. Freezing will be completed after 24 hours. Then turn
the dial back to its original position. Maximum freezing capacity is 8 kg.
The Alarm indicator will light up if the unit's internal temperature rises above -9°C.
