Operation

Before using for the first time
^ Clean the inside of the appliance and
the accessories with luke warm water
and a little washing-up liquid, and
then dry with a soft cloth.
Important:
To ensure the correct functioning of
the appliance, let it stand for
between 1½ and 2 hours after
transporting it to its final location
before connecting it to the mains.
Switching on
^ Using a coin turn the On/Off dial in a
clockwise direction away from the "0"
position.
Forcing it beyond its range will
damage it. Turn it only as far as it
will go, then turn it back again.
The temperature display and the alarm
button indicator will light up. An alarm
will sound after a short while and the
appliance will start cooling.
To enable the temperature to get
sufficiently cold inside the freezer, allow
the appliance to run for a few hours
before placing food in it.
The higher the setting, the lower the
temperature in the appliance.
