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.
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.
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 for 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
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 warmer than -18°C.
Min = Lowest setting, minimum cold
Fast Freeze = 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.
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 equalised and
then open gently. Never use excessive force on the handle.
