Keep away from heat and direct sunlight. Do not place the
freezer in moist or wet places to prevent rust or reduction of
insulating effect.
The space between the top of the freezer shall be greater than
80cm. The distance from both sides and the back shall be more
than 30cm. This facilitates the opening & closing and heat
dissipation.
Wipe the freezer inside and outside with a warm moist rag (add
a small amount of detergent in the warm water. Use plain water
for the
cleanse).
Do not switch on the connection 220~240V/50Hz(230V/50Hz)
power until 6 hours after moving the freezer. The refrigerant
needs time to settle.
Before placing frozen foods in your freezer, turn the freezer on
and wait for 24 hours to make sure it is working properly and to
allow the freezer to chill down to the optimum temperature.
Temperature can be measured using a thermometer. Take care
to maintain the temperature as recommended by food
suppliers.
The appliance should be transported only in an upright position. The packing as

Operation
Before you start using the CONVERT (Freezer/Cooler), please go through the below
mentioned guidelines to get optimum performance from your appliance.
1. The interior needs to be dry with free air circulation.
2. Clean the interior as recommended under ‘CLEANING AND CARE’.
3. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply the red light
will switch on. After sometime the green light will glow, indicating that the
compressor is running.
4. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed
within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the
compressor is running or not which is quite normal.
5. If you plan to store already frozen food, then open the freezer lid and check if the
freezer has reached the correct temperature. Once the correct temperature has
been reached, you can start storing your already frozen food. (See ‘Storing Frozen
Food’- Page <11>).
6. Do not load the appliance immediately after it is switched on. Wait until the correct
storage temperature has been reached. We recommend that you check the
temperature with an accurate thermometer (See ‘Freezer/Cooler operation’).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Important Notes:
• Avoid opening the lid in case of a power failure. It will lead to cooling loss. If the
failure lasts longer, then the food should be checked and eaten immediately or
cooked and then re-frozen.
• If you that the lid of the freezer is dif to open just after you have closed it,
don’t worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalize and allow the
lid to be opened normally after a few minutes. Do not use a knife or any sharp
objects to open door or break vacuum at such instances.
Connect the freezer to power supply and “Power” Indicator (the green light) will
turn on. “Run” indicator (the red light) will turn on operation.
The temperature of the chamber is adjusted through the thermostat knob.
the number is the higher the temperature, inside will be and verse versa.
The user can choose the right temperature zone according to their needs.
For refrigeration, temperature control knob should be set to COOLING;
For freezing, temperature control knob should be set to FREEZING;
For quick-freezing, temperature control knob should be set to SUPER;
CLEANING AND CARE
• We recommend that you switch off the freezer from the main power outlet and
pull out the mains plug before cleaning.
• Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent
or wax polish for cleaning.
• Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of the freezer and wipe it dry.
• Use a damp cloth which has been dipped & squeezed in a solution of one
teaspoon of soda bicarbonate mixed in a pint of water, to clean the interior and
wipe it dry.
• Excess deposit of ice should be removed on a regular basis using a plastic ice
scraper available. Large accumulation of ice will affect the performance of the
freezer as it acts as an insulation.
• If the freezer is not going to be used for a long period of time, switch it off,
remove all food and clean it.
• Check lid seals (gasket) regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food
particles.
Important Notes:
Never use water to wash the compressor position and wipe it with a dry cloth
thoroughly after cleaning to prevent rust.
MAINTENANCE OF FREEZER/COOLER

to make sure the food is at the lowest temperature when you get it out. All food
should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place.
• Remove the freezer basket. Leave the lid open. Containers of warm water may
be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting.

defrosting. When defrosting has nished, drain out the defrost water which
collects at the bottom of the freezer.
