Freezer controls
Start your appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket. The pilot light
➂
will light up to show that the appliance is on.
Temperature control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by
the thermostat situated at the top of the cabinet ➄.
To operate the freezer proceed as follows:
Turn the thermostat control beyond the «■» position.
When you first start the freezer, we suggest that you
turn the thermostat control to a medium setting. For
easier turning of this control, use a small coin.
The internal temperature of the freezer is
automatically adjusted by the thermostat to ensure
safe food storage. However, if the appliance is
working in unfavourable room conditions such as
poor ventilation, high temperature and frequent door
openings, it may be necessary to select a more
suitable setting.
To obtain a colder temperature, turn the thermostat
control towards max.; to obtain a warmer temperature
turn the control towards min.
Warning light (red)
If the temperature warning light ➃lights up, it
indicates that the temperature within the freezer has
reached a level where safe food storage is no longer
ensured.
When the freezer is first switched on, the warning
light will stay on until the temperature has dropped to
a safe level for the storage of frozen food.
Freezing fresh food
In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 12 kg of
fresh food.
When you first start the freezer, or after a period of
non-use, slide the fast-freeze switch ➀to the left
(fast freeze position) 2-3 hours before you want to
freeze your food (the yellow light ➁lights up).
If the freezer is already in operation, the fast-freeze
switch should be activated about 24 hours before
freezing fresh food. This time can be shortened,
depending on the quantity of food to be frozen. After
the time has elapsed place the food to be frozen in
the top compartment of the freezer as this is the
coldest part.
