ACTIONFREEZE

Once set, the temperature display shows the current temperature inside the freezer. Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the cabinet. It is not necessary to reset the temperature when the cabinet is switched on after it has been out of use. The electronics recalls the previously set temperature.

Temperature inside the freezer

To ensure that foodstuff will keep for a long time, be sure that the temperature inside the freezer is -18°C or below. Please note, however, that the energy consumption increases as the temperature decreases. The built-in temperature display shows the warmest temperature inside the freezer. If the temperature is measured using a thermometer, put it between the products since this will reflect the real temperature in the frozen products. It is normal that the built-in temperature display shows a temperature slightly above that measured in other ways.

Switching off

Switch off the cabinet by pressing the power switch. Keep the button pressed for approx. 1 second.

Power to the cabinet is completely interrupted only when the power plug is disconnected.

Alarms and other features

Door open alarm

If the door remains open for more than about 1,5 minute, the red indicator lamp starts flashing and an audible alarm sounds. To switch off the alarm: Press the alarm shut-off button. As long as the door remains open, the audible alarm will sound anew at 1-minute intervals. The red indicator lamp goes out when the door is closed.

Temperature alarm

If the temperature rises above -12°C, the red warning lamp flashes and an audible alarm sounds. The temperature display will then start to flash. To switch off the alarm: Press the alarm shut-off button to switch off the audible alarm. The temperature display will stop flashing. The red warning lamp goes out when the temperature inside the freezer again falls below

-11°C. Find out what caused the alarm. See the chapter "Something not working".

Temperature memory

The temperature memory shows when an alarm has been triggered in the cabinet. The temperature memory operates as follows: When the temperature inside the freezer again falls below -11°C the audible alarm stops. The temperature display and the red warning lamp will flash to indicate than an alarm was triggered. When the alarm shut-off button is pressed, the display then displays the warmest temperature inside the cabinet during the alarm phase and the display stops flashing. By referring to the temperature display indication, it is possible to decide whether or not to discard the products inside the freezer.
