These warnings are provided to improve safety, and should
be read carefully before installing or using your freezer.
This freezer is only intended for the freezing and storage
of food.
This freezer should only be operated by adults. Children
must not be allowed to tamper with the control buttons or
play with the freezer.
Changes in the electrical mains system in connection
with the installation of this freezer should always be
carried out by an authorised electrician or competent
person.
Do not under any circumstances attempt to repair the
freezer yourself. Repairs carried out by untrained people
may result in personal injury or serious malfunction of the
freezer.
Service of the freezer should be carried out by an
authorised service company, and only original spare
parts should be used. See under Guarantee Conditions
and Service.
It is dangerous to alter the freezer specifications, or to
change the freezer in any other way.
Make sure that the freezer is not placed on top of the
mains cable.
Do not re-freeze food once it has been defrosted.
Observe the recommendations for storage carefully. See
under Helpful Hints.
This freezer includes components that are heated during
operation. Consequently, adequate ventilation must
always be provided. If ventilation is insufficient defects
may occur, resulting in the loss of food. See under
Installation.
The inside of the freezer contains pipes through which
coolant flows. If these pipes are punctured the freezer
may be damaged beyond repair, and food may be lost.
Do not use sharp implements to remove frost or ice.
Frost can be removed using the enclosed scraper. Do
not knock ice off the sides of the freezer, but remove it
by defrosting the freezer. See under Maintenance.
Do not place drinks in the freezer. Bottles and cans
containing carbonic acid or sparkling drinks are
particularly prone to explosion, which may damage
the freezer.
This freezer is heavy. Take care when moving it.
If the freezer is fitted with a lock to prevent tampering
by children, the key must always be kept safely out of
the reach of children, and far away from the freezer.
Before disposing of an old freezer, make sure that the
lock (if present) no longer works. This is to prevent
accidents and avoid the danger of children getting
locked inside.
Ice lollies can cause frostbite if eaten direct from the
freezer.
Your appliance contains an environmental friendly
natural gas, isobutane (R600a) as refrigerant, which
is nevertheless flammable.
During transportation and installation of the
appliance, be sure that none of the components of
the cooling circuit become damaged.
If any part of the cooling circuit damaged:
avoid naked flames and sources of ignition;
thoroughly ventilate the room in which the
appliance is installed.
IINN TTHHEE IINNTTEERREESSTTSS OOFF TTHHEE
EENNVVIIRROONNMMEENNTT::
When disposing of your old fridge, freezer or
fridge/freezer:
Check with your local Council or Environmental Health
Officer to see if there are facilities in your area for
collecting the gas from the appliance for recycling. This
will help reduce the amount of CFC gas released into the
atmosphere.
Help to keep your country tidy - when disposing of an old
appliance or a CFC free appliance use an authorised
disposal site.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT
It is vital that these instructions are kept with the
freezer for future use. If the freezer is sold or given
to another user, or if you move and leave the freezer
behind, you must ensure that the instructions
accompany the freezer to enable the next user to
use the freezer correctly and read the relevant
warnings.
PPOOSSIITTIIOONN
Place the freezer horizontally on a firm surface, resting
on all four plastic feet. Use a wooden block or similar
object to compensate for any bumps/holes in the
surface.
The room should be dry and adequately ventilated.
If the room temperature exceeds 32°C, or falls below
freezing point, the freezer will not function as it should.
Do not place the freezer close to sources of heat,
radiators, chimneys, etc., and do not place the freezer in
direct sunlight.
If the freezer has been handled standing on end it should
be allowed to stand in normal position for about 12 hours
before switching it on.
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
SSWWIITTCCHHIINNGG OONN
Before switching on, the freezer should be cleaned inside.
See under Maintenance.
Set the thermostat button in middle position. Allow the
freezer to run for several hours before placing food inside.
INSTALLATION
EELLEECCTTRRIICCAALL RREEQQUUIIRREEMMEENNTTSS
Before switching on, make sure that the voltage of your
electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating
plate, located inside the lid.
WARNING:
This appliance must be earthed.

The thermostat ensures that the required temperature is
maintained in the freezer. Adjust the temperature by turning
the button with a coin that fits the groove. Turning the
thermostat button towards no. 7 makes the temperature in
the freezer colder, and turning the button towards no. 1
makes the temperature warmer. The correct setting can be
found by measuring the temperature of the top package in
the middle of the freezer. This should not have a
temperature higher than -18°C.
OOPPEENNIINNGG//CCLLOOSSIINNGG TTHHEE LLIIDD
The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing strip to prevent
moisture getting inside the freezer and increasing the
amount of frost formed.
When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer becomes
slightly warmer and expands.
As soon as the lid is closed again the air is cooled
immediately.
This may lead to the creation of a vacuum which makes it
hard to open the lid immediately after it has been closed.
This is quite normal.
Wait a few minutes until the vacuum has disappeared, then
open the lid by pulling gently. Never pull the handle
violently.
CCOONNTTRROOLL PPAANNEELL
The green light is illuminated as long as the freezer is
connected.
The yellow light is illuminated when the Super button is
depressed. See under Freezing.
The red light is illuminated when the temperature in the
freezer is higher than the thermostat setting (alarm).
The red alarm light can be due to:
Insertion of a large amount of fresh food. The red
alarm light will go out after a while.
Opening the lid too long. The red alarm light will go
out after a while.
A defect in the system. See under If something does
not work.
FFRREEEEZZIINNGG
It is important that fresh food placed in the freezer is
frozen quickly, and that the food already in the freezer is
heated as little as possible in this connection.
If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen:
Press the square Super button (yellow light comes
on). The freezer will now run continuously, creating a
sufficient reserve of the temperature required.
Press the Super button 6-24 hours before placing
fresh food in the freezer, depending on how much
food is to be frozen.
Place the food in the freezer and leave the Super
button on for about 24 hours more.
Then press the Super button again (yellow light goes
off). The freezer will return to normal storage
temperature. If you forget to press the Super button
again, the freezer will not be damaged by running at
the Super setting for some time - but energy will be
wasted.
HOW TO USE
PPAACCKKAAGGIINNGG AANNDD PPOOSSIITTIIOONNIINNGG
Food must be cold before freezing (no more than room
temperature).
Food must be packed in airtight and moisture-proof
packaging to prevent it from drying out.
Place fresh food for freezing close to the cold sides of
the freezer, making sure that it is not in contact with the
frozen food already in the freezer.
Never fill the freezer to more than 5 mm below the top
edge.
See under Helpful hints.
CCAAPPAACCIITTYY
The freezing capacity of the freezer is stated in the data
plate (kg/24 hours). Do not exceed the amount stated - if
you do, the freezing time will be extended. The data plate is
located inside the lid.
LOCK
(Not a standard accessory for all models.) The lock works
as shown in the drawings. Remember to keep the key out
of the reach of children.
BASKETS
The baskets are designed for the storage of food which has
already been frozen. The handles can be placed in two
positions, as shown in the drawings.The baskets can either
be placed inside the freezer or hung on the edge of the
casing.
HOW TO USE
FREEZING
CAPACITY
IMPORTANT
The freezing capacity stated can be utilised to
the full occasionally to freeze large amounts of
fresh food. However, if the freezer is filled with
large amounts of food for freezing every day, the
capacity stated is reduced by about one-third.
