Getting Started

Switching on your Freezer

1. Before connecting the freezer to the mains supply make sure that
the thermostat control dial is set at position in the MIN, of which
MIN is Off.
2. Turn the thermostat knob clockwise to set it to the desired
position. Please note that the coldest temperature is SUPER.
3. To ensure the Freezer is cool enough to sufficiently freeze your
food wait 24 hours before filling with food.

Adjusting the Temperature

The internal temperature of your Freezer is controlled by a thermostat. SUPER position makes the freezer
coldest and it is used for Fast Freezing. The recommended position is between MIN and MAX, but it should
be adjusted according to the 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.

Fast Freezing

Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. Setting SUPER makes your freezer operate the coldest
(approximately -28ºC ) 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 thermostat control dial back to NORMAL
(-18ºC ). Never freeze large quantities of fresh food at one time.

Noises inside the Freezer!

If you have not owned an Freezer before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual noises. Most
of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
Gurgling, whooshing
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become
more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the
performance of your Freezer.
Humming, purring or pulsating
This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
