Using the freezer

To start the freezer and set the correct temperature

Switching on:

Switch on the freezer by pressing the power switch. The alarm sounds if the temperature inside freezer reaches room temperature. Turn off the by pressing the switch-off

button.

Setting the temperature

Press the buttons until the desired temperature blinks on the temperature display. (The temperature can be set between -15°C and -24°C.) "+" increases the temperature. "-" decreases the temperature.

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 thermostat 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.
