IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EC
DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC.
At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. The refrigeration system contains
insulating gases and refrigerants, which require specialised waste disposal. The valuable materials contained in this
appliance can be recycle. It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer
providing this service.
Before disposing of an old appliance, remove the latch or bolt lock to avoid the risk of child entrapment.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health
deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings
in energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked
with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
Before first use
You must allow the freezer to settle for at least twenty four hours prior to switching the power on.
It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior to first use, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda
and warm water and then thoroughly drying the interior.
The freezer may have an odour to it at first use. This will disappear as the appliance cools.
Please note:
• The appliance will work continuously until it comes down to the correct temperature.
• If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary
damage to the compressor.

1. Thermostat dial
The thermostat automatically keeps the internal temperature at a constant level. The temperature is regulated by
the thermostat dial, located on the freezer control panel. To change the temperature, turn the dial anti-clockwise from
1 (highest temperature) to 5 (coldest temperature). We recommend that you start with the appliance set to position 3.
Don not turn the dial beyond the maximum. To switch the freezer off, turn the dial anticlockwise to the
minimum position.
2. Super freeze switch
This freezer is equipped with a super freeze function. This allows the freezer compressor to run continuously and
so freezes food more quickly. To select this function, push the switch across until the super freeze indicator light (5)
illuminates. To switch the function off, then push the switch back across until the indicator light goes out again.
Note that this should not be used for more than 24 hours.
3. Power indicator light
This green light will illuminate when the freezer is switched on.

4. Over temperature indicator light
This red light will illuminate when the temperature inside the freezer is too high. This may illuminate after the door
has been opened, or when fresh food is added and should switch off again once the temperature within the freezer
has stabilised.
5. Super freeze indicator light
This yellow light will illuminate when the super freeze function has been switched on with the super freeze switch (2).
