Warnings

• WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not defrost the appliance with other electrical devices (i.e. hair dryer) or any artificial

•

means and do not use sharp metal objects to remove the ice on the freezer, as this could cause damage to the refrigerant system.

Do not operate any electrical appliances inside the refrigerator or freezer.

•

• WARNING: Do not place bottles (glass or plastic) containing liquids (especially

effervescent liquids) into the freezer as they could cause the bottle to burst during freezing.

• WARNING: Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.

WARNING: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

•

• WARNING: Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the

built-in structure, clear of obstruction. Do not touch the cooling surfaces while the appliance operates, especially with wet

•

hands, because the skin may stick to cold surfaces.

• Do not eat ice which has just been removed from the freezer as this can cause freezer burns to the hands and tongue.

Installation

Install and level the appliance on a floor able to take its weight and in a place suitable for its

•

size and use. Insert the plug into a socket which is appropriate. This appliance has a plug already fitted – if

•

the plug is not suitable for your socket we suggest that you call an authorized electrician for assistance. If the plug is damaged in any way – do not attempt to use it. It must be replaced with a new plug.

Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight and close to heat sources. Do not allow the

•

appliance to be exposed to rain. Choose a well ventilated area. There should be at least 10 cm of open space along the sides,

•

top, and back of the freezer. Before switching on place the appliance in an upright position and wait at least three hours

•

without moving the appliance. This will give the refrigerant circuit time to settle and operate efficiently.

Install the appliance in a dry and well-ventilated place. The appliance is for use in places

•

within the temperature ranges defined according to the climatic class given on the Data Label located on the back of the product. The appliance may not operate consistently if it is sited for extended periods of time below the cold end of the climate class temperature range for which the appliance is designed.

If the appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or freezer, observe the minimum

•

distance of 10cm to avoid condensation.

•

The thermostat should be adjusted according to different environment temperature and the and

•

the quantity of food being stored by adjusting the knob of the thermostat. The knob rotates clockwise from ” 1 ” to “ 7 ” .The setting should be reduced down in summer (anti-clockwise rotation) and up in winter (clockwise rotation). The thermostat is set to a certain point before leaving the factory, this is the optimum setting for the product.

If a large amount of fresh food is placed in the appliance for freezing the thermostat should be

•

turned up for a period of 4-6 hours, after this period it should be returned to its initial setting.

The green lamp is a power indicating lamp. When the power is on, the lamp will be on.

•

Once power is cut off, wait for at least 5 minutes before plugging in again to avoid damaging the

The use of a freezer is for freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for long periods of time

and making ice cubes. Do not put fresh or warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the frozen food. While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, fish etc) divide them into smaller portions, this will allow you

to defrost only the food you need.

that the packing is intact. Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food

and should be placed into the freezer as soon as possible. If a package of frozen food shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable that it

has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have

deteriorated. Do not use this food, dispose of it as soon as possible. The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, how often

the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport the product from

the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the package and never exceed

the maximum storage life indicated.

and Cleaning

Cleaning

Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed.

•

defrosting procedure switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g.

•

fridge or larder). Containers full of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the

•

defrosting. Do not use pointed or sharp edged objects such as knives, forks to remove the frost.

•

Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters and other similar electrical appliances for defrosting.

•

When defrosting has finished, sponge out any defrost water which collects at the bottom of

•

the freezer and dry the interior thoroughly. You

•

can wipe the inner and outer sides with a soft cloth or a sponge using warm and soapy water. Do not wash your freezer by pouring water into it. Never use flammable, explosive or corrosive material like thinner, gas, acid for cleaning. Make sure that your freezer remains unplugged while cleaning. Once defrosting/cleaning has been completed, plug in the appliance and return to its temperature setting.
