USING THE APPLIANCE
This appliance is designed for
domestic use only, specifically for the
storage of edible foodstuffs.
This appliance is designed to operate in
ambient temperatures (surrounding air
temperature) between 10°C (50°F) and 32°C
(90°F).
If these temperatures are exceeded i.e.,
colder or warmer, the appliance will not
operate correctly. Should the ambient
temperatures be exceeded for long periods,
the temperature in the freezer section will rise
above -18°C and food spoilage may occur.
Before Use
Remove all securing tapes.
Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm
water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml
to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or
detergent as the smell may linger. Dry the
appliance thoroughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed cleaning
products, wax polishes or products
containing alcohol.
To Start the Appliance
1. Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours
after installation.
2. Plug in the appliance and switch on at the
mains supply.
3. Turn the thermostat control to the required
setting. A midway setting is usually suitable
for normal operation (see thermostat control).
4. Leave the appliance for approximately 4
hours for the correct temperature to be
reached before placing food inside.
Thermostat Control
The thermostat control situated in the control
panel regulates the temperature of the freezer
compartment. Thermostat control is marked from
1-6, the higher the number, the colder the setting.
Position 1 - Cold
Position 6 - Coldest
The temperature will be affected by:
Room temperature
How often the door is opened
How much food is stored
Position of the appliance
In determining the correct temperature control
setting, all these factors have to be considered
and some experimentation may be necessary
Do not allow children to tamper with the
controls or play with the product.

.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
The Indicator Lights are situated in the control
panel.
Green Indicator Light
When the appliance is switched on at the mains
the green indicator light will glow and continue to
glow until the appliance is switched off at the
mains.
Red Indicator Light
A few hours after starting up this will go out to
show that the correct temperature has been
reached for the setting chosen and will stay out
to indicate that everything is in order.
It will come on if the freezer temperature rises
unduly for instance, after opening the freezer
door or placing food inside the cabinet, but the
light should go out again when the temperature
returns to normal.
Amber Indicator Light - (Fast Freeze)
With the fast freeze on the Amber Indicator light
will come on and stay on as a reminder.
GREEN INDICATOR
RED INDICATOR
AMBER INDICATOR
FAST FREEZE FACILITY
The fast freeze switch overrides the thermostat
and should be used when freezing fresh foods.
It is operated by switching the switch from the
normal position '0' to 'I'.
7
The Freezer Compartment
The symbol means that your freezer will
store frozen food at -18
allowing for long term frozen food storage and
freezing of fresh food. The freezer temperature is
controlled automatically by the thermostat
situated in the control panel.
Due to the different installations, methods of
usage and weather conditions, adjustments to the
temperature settings may be required.
These are best assessed against a
temperature reading on a thermometer
buried in the frozen food. The reading
must be taken quickly as the thermometer
temperature will rise rapidly after removal.
°C (-0.4°F) or colder
Freezing Fresh Food
The maximum quantity of food you can freeze in
24 hours is 8kg. Place the fresh food on the top
freezer shelf. Food may need rearranging to
achieve this.
During the freezing process the temperature of
fresh food should be reduced quickly so that ice
crystals are kept as small as possible to prevent
damaging the structure of food. If freezing takes
place slowly large ice crystals form and these will
affect the quality of food once it has defrosted.
Switch the fast freeze switch to 'I' (ON) 24 hours
before loading the food. 24 hours after loading
the food return the switch to '0' (OFF). Existing
frozen foods should be re-arranged to leave
space on the top two shelves for freezing. The
packets to be frozen should be placed on the
shelf in contact with the shelf surface as far as
possible and spaced apart to allow cold air to
circulate between them. They should not touch
existing packets.
If there is room, transfer the food you have frozen
to the baskets or drawer to allow you to freeze a
further load on the top shelf. No harm will result if
you forget to turn off the fast freeze switch after
24 hours, but for reasons of economy, try to
remember to turn it off when freezing is complete.
The amber light should remind you of this.
Exceptionally large items can be stored by
removing the upper basket.
Frozen food should not be refrozen
once it has thawed out.
Do not remove items from the freezer if
your hands are damp/wet, as this could
cause skin abrasions or 'frost/freezer
burns'.
For safety reasons, the freezer baskets are fitted
with stops but are readily removed by pulling
them forward to the stop, then lifting the front and
pulling all the way out. Re-fit by reversing this
procedure.
Frozen Food Storage
The appliance has the following net storage
volume:
82 litres (2.89 cuft)
26.2 kg (57.8 lb)
†
† This is a standard measurement and the
actual capacity depends upon the density
and sizes of the food. The above figures are
based on an average density of 0.32kg per
litre (20 lb per cuft).
Pre packed commercially frozen food should be
stored in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions for a 4 star frozen food compartment
and should be put in the freezer as soon as
possible after purchase. Your freezer provides for
long term storage which generally means up to 3
months but the length of the time can vary and it
is important to follow the recommended times
shown on packets of commercially frozen food.
Do not place sealed containers or
carbonated liquids such as fizzy drinks
into the freezer as it creates pressure
on the container which may cause it to
explode resulting to damage to the
freezer.
Ice cubes and ice lollies should not be
consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer as it may result in low
temperature skin abrasions.
Manufacturers storage times should be
adhered to.
Hints and Tips
Any opened packets of frozen food,
should be rewrapped in airtight materials
to prevent surface evaporation which
causes drying or 'freezer burn'.
Frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be used
immediately or thrown away. Alternatively
if the food is uncooked and has not been
completely defrosted it can be cooked and
then refrozen.
Aim to check dates on packets and rotate
food regularly. Although storage longer
than recommended is not harmful, flavours
and textures begin to change.

HINTS AND TIPS
Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling
sounds when the refrigerant is pumped
through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the
cooling plate/evaporator or to the fixed
freezer shelves.
When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped round, and you will hear a
whirring sound or pulsating noise from the
compressor.
A thermostat controls the compressor, and
you will hear a faint 'click' when the
thermostat cuts in and out.
Food Storage
To obtain the best results from your appliance,
neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should be placed in the larder
compartment.
Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it
straight away. The use of an insulated
container is advisable. When you arrive home
place the frozen food in the freezer
immediately.
Keep the time between buying chilled food
and placing it in your fridge as short as
possible.
Do not push food together too much, try to
allow air to circulate around each item.
Do not store food uncovered.
Ensure that food placed in the freezer is
dated and labelled and used in date order to
ensure that food is consumed at its best.
Remove suspect food from your refrigerator
and clean, refer to cleaning and maintenance.
Energy Saving Advice
Do not install the appliance close to sources
of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or
radiator.
Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and make sure that the air openings of
the cabinet are not obstructed.
Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages
before placing them in the freezer.
Always leave warm food to cool down to room
temperature before placing in the fridge or
freezer.
Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should
be placed in the fridge before being
transferred to the freezer.
Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will
ensure safer defrosting of foods and reduce
the work of the refrigeration unit.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing
the door from closing properly.
It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the
appliance with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure during the storage of
frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the
temperature within your freezer should rise do not
refreeze the food without checking it's condition.
The following guidelines should assist you:
Ice Cream: Once thawed should be discarded.
Fruit and Vegetables: If soft should be cooked
and used up.
Bread and Cakes: Can be refrozen without
danger.
Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and used up
quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles, should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: Can be re-frozen
providing there are ice crystals remaining within
them.
Small Joints: Should be cooked and then
re-frozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: Should be cooked and re-frozen as a
fresh dish
.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Before any maintenance or cleaning work
is carried out DISCONNECT the appliance
from the ELECTRICITY supply.
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water
and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products, wax
polishes or cleaning products containing
bleach or alcohol.
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Do NOT use abrasive products.
There are sharp edges on the underside
of the product so care should be taken
when cleaning.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black
grille) and the compressor at the back of the
appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an
accumulation of dust will affect the performance
of the appliance and cause excessive electricity
consumption.
To Defrost the Freezer
1. Wrap any food in layers of newspaper or
blankets.
2. Switch the appliance off at the wall socket
and remove the plug.
3. Open the freezer door.
4. Fold out the defrost flip spout.
5. Place a suitable container under the spout
to collect the defrost water.
6. After defrosting, clean and dry the interior.
7. Switch the appliance on and replace any
frozen food.
Defrosting can be speeded up by putting
bowls of hot (not boiling) water in the
freezer and loosening the frost with a
suitable plastic scraper.
If the temperature of frozen food is
allowed to rise during defrosting, its
storage life may be shortened.
When the Appliance is Not in Use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of
the food and clean the appliance, leaving the
door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
