BEFORE PLACING FOOD IN THE FREEZER
 Remove all packaging.
 Allow the appliance to run empty for 2 – 3 hours so the compartment can cool to the appropriate
temperature.
 Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove
manufacturing and transportation dust.
POWER FAILURE
If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the power failure
lasts for less than 15 hours.

When you use the appliance for the first time or after defrosting, adjust the control knob to the coldest
setting for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the middle setting.

parts (drawers, etc.) or fix them into the freezer to avoid any shock.
 Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing
upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on.
