INSTALLATION
Location
When selecting a position for your unit you should make sure the oor is at and rm and the room is well ventilated. This unit can be used in a garage or outbuilding. For optimum energy eciency the unit should be located within an average room temperature of between 10°C and 43°C. If the room temperature drops below or rises above these temperatures the energy consumption and performance may be aected. Avoid locating your unit near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption. Do not drape the unit with any covering.
Free Space Requirements
When installing the unit, ensure that 25 mm of free space is left at both sides and 50 mm at the rear of the unit. Please ensure there is adequate space for the door to fully open.
Installing the Door Handle
1. Collect the door handle, door lock, screws and handle cover from inside the unit.
2. Place and screw the the door lock.
3. Place and screw the door handle.
4. Place the handle cover to cover the screws, bending it slightly and xing it at onto the door handle.
• Make sure the door is always kept locked when not in use to prevent children from playing with the unit.
• The door lock is specially designed to prevent the keys from being left inside the lock.
• The door keys should be kept out of reach of children.
Cleaning Before Use
Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with warm water using a sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before. Clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth.
If you require more information refer to the Cleaning section.
• Before Plugging in YOU MUST Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the unit.
• Before Turning On! Do not turn on until two hours after moving the unit. The coolant uid needs time to settle.

Operation
Switching On Your Unit
1. Connect the mains cable to the mains socket.
2. Temperature range: -14°C to -22°C. Press “-” to decrease temperature and “+” to increase temperature. The appliance may not operate correctly if it is in a particularly hot or cold room or if the door is opened often or for prolonged periods.
3. To ensure that the unit is cool enough to suciently freeze your food, wait 24 hours before lling it with food.
4. If you are concerned that your unit is not being kept cold enough and wish to check the temperature, you will need a special fridge/freezer thermometer. These are available from most supermarkets and hardware shops. Place the thermometer in the freezer and leave overnight. The correct temperature for the freezer should be -18°C or lower.
Super Freezing mode
To use super freezing mode, press , the display will ash “SF” for 5 seconds and super freezing mode will be started. To cancel, press again.
In super freezing mode, the chest freezer will continuously run for 52 hours (if no additional adjustment is made while the mode is in eect). After 52 hours, the unit will automatically return to its former temperature setting.
Lock mode
• To lock the buttons, press “+” and “-“ buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.
• To unlock the buttons from lock mode, press “+” and “-“ buttons for 3 seconds again.
High Temperature alarm
If there is high temperature alarm (temperature is continuously higher than -8°C), “ht” and the current temperature will be displayed alternately. A beep will be heard.
Adjust the temperature until the high temperature alarm is cancelled.
Temperature Sensor failure
If temperature sensor fails, the display will show “E0” and current temperature alternately. The compressor will run in cycle for 20 minutes then stop for 20 minutes.
Noises Inside the Unit!
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not aect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit
• Cooked meats/shes should always be stored above raw meats/shes to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats/shes in a container which is large enough to collect juices and cover it properly. Place the container at the bottom inside the unit.
• Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit are kept cool.
• To prevent transfer of avours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain the internal temperature of the unit.
• To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the door. We recommend that you only open the door when you need to put food in or take food out.
Preparations for Freezing
• Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities as it freezes faster, takes less time to defrost and enables you to control the quantity you need better.
• Leave cooked food to cool completely. Chill food before freezing if possible.
• Consider how you will want to cook the food before freezing it.
• Don’t freeze food in metal containers if you may want to microwave it straight from
the freezer.
• Use special freezer bags, freezer lm, polythene bags, plastic containers, and aluminium foil (heavy duty grade only). If in doubt, double wrap your food. Don’t use aluminium foil for acidic foods, e.g. citrus fruits. Don’t use thin cling lm, glass, or used food containers without cleaning.
• Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You could buy a special vacuum pump which sucks excessive air out of the packaging.
• Leave a small amount of air space when freezing liquids to allow expansion.
• You can use the space in the freezer most eciently if you freeze liquids (or solids with liquids, e.g. stew) in
square blocks. This is known as “Preforming”. Pour the liquid into a polythene bag which is inside a square sided container. Freeze it, and then remove it from the container and seal the bag.
• Label your frozen foods as they will look the same when in frozen state. Use special fridge freezer tapes, labels and pens with dierent colours. This allows you to easily organise and to eectively use the freezer. Write the contents and date; otherwise the frozen food might exceed the storage time and this could cause food poisoning. Please refer to your food packaging for the recommended storage time.
Defrosting Frozen Food
1. Take the frozen food out and let it defrost at room temperature. Don’t forget that defrosting in a warm area encourages the growth of bacteria and low temperature cooking may not destroy dangerous bacteria.
2. Drain o and throw away any liquid lost during defrosting.
3. Always make sure there are no ice-crystals in the food before cooking, particularly with meat. These crystals indicate that the food has not fully defrosted.
4. Cook food as soon as possible after defrosting.
5. Many microwaves and ovens have a defrost setting. To avoid bacterial build up, only use these if you intend to cook the food immediately afterwards.

Cleaning
Defrosting
Frost may build up in the freezer compartment after it has been used for a period of time. Scrape away the frost using a plastic scraper.
We recommend that defrosting should be carried out when the frost layer builds up to 10 mm. Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low, follow these procedures:
1. Take out the food, turn the unit o at the mains supply and leave the door open. Ideally, the frozen food should be put into another freezer. If this is not possible, wrap the food in several sheets of newspaper or large towels and then a thick rug or blanket to keep it cool.
Never re-freeze anything that has been defrosted out unless you cook it again, to kill off harmful bacteria. Never re-freeze defrosted shellfish. Re-seal packs properly after removing items. This prevents drying or freezer-burn and a build up of frost on any remaining food.
2. To remove melted frost from the drain hole, place a suitable container under it. Remove the drain cap on the front of the unit. Reach down into the freezer and unscrew the drain plug.
3. Scrape away the frost using the plastic scraper. Defrosting the remaining frost can be sped up by placing a bowl of hot water inside the freezer compartment and closing the door. As the solid frost loosens, scrape it away with the plastic scraper and remove.
Do not use a metal or sharp instrument to scrape away the frost, nor should you use
any electrical appliances to aid defrosting.
4. After all the water has drained away, replace the drain plug and then the drain cap.
5. When defrosting is complete, clean your unit’s interior and exterior.
6. When the compartment is completely clean and dry, close the door, switch on the freezer again.
7. Leave the unit to cool down for an hour, and then you can start placing frozen food inside the unit.
Cleaning the Interior and the Exterior of the Unit
• Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with warm water using a sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make sure that the door is closed to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside the unit.

Switching O for Long Periods of Time
When the unit is not in use for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains supply, empty all food and clean the unit, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
Condensation Appears on the Outside of the Freezer
Condensation may appear on the surface of the Chest Freezer, this is normal - wipe dry with a dry cloth.
This may be due to a change in the room temperature. Wipe o any residue of moisture. If the problem continues contact the local store where you purchased your freezer.
When your appliance is working, the condenser at the back (exposed models) may become hot or alternatively the sides may become hot (hidden condenser models).
Disposal
Old units still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant used in the unit and insulation materials require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the unit are damaged prior to disposal.
