Before use
Position and clean the cabinet as explained in the section "Installation".
Before inserting the power plug into the outlet and switching on the cabinet for the first time, leave it standing upright for about 30 minutes, or for 4 hours if it was transported horizontally. Otherwise the compressor may sustain damage. This time will allow the oil sufficient time to return to the compressor.
GB
Using the freezer
To start the freezer and set the correct temperature
Turn the thermostat control to the desired position. 1 : The lowest position of the thermostat control results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet. 6 : The highest position of the thermostat control results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet. 0 : Switched off. Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the cabinet.
Switching off
Set the thermostat control to the "0" position. Unplug the power supply plug from the wall socket or, alternatively, remove the fuse.
Alarms and other features
Temperature alarm
A red warning lamp lights if it gets warmer than
-12°C. Find out what caused the alarm and correct the situation. The lamp goes out when it becomes colder than -13°C.
GB
Temperature inside the freezer
To ensure that foodstuff will keep for a long time, be sure that the temperature inside the freezer is -18°C or below. Please note, however, that the energy consumption increases as the temperature decreases.
14
Freezing
You need not press the fast-freezing button when freezing smaller quantities of food during any 24-hour period. In all other cases, press the fast-freezing button approx. 24 hours prior to placing the food in the freezer . Press the fast-freezing button to switch off fast-freezing again about 24 hours after placing the food in the freezer. The yellow fast-freezing lamp remains lit as long as the fast-freezing button is engaged.
Practical advice on freezing
· When freezing products, use the top shelf, and if
necessary the shelf beneth that.
· Place the foods directly on the freezer shelves.
· Spread out the products as much as possible to
allow air to circulate between them.
· Do not place food products which are to be
frozen directly against other frozen food.
· The heat from the unfrozen food may cause
the frozen food to thaw on the surface.
· Once frozen, re-arrange the products and put
them as close as possible to each other.
· The food will then stay cold longer i n t he
event of a power failure.
· When freezing large amounts of food/provisions,
the accumulator moves to the tray/space nearest to the lower freezing shelf.
· Do not freeze too much food at the same time.
· The freezing capacity of the unit is indicated in
the specifications section.
Check that the cabinet is operating and keeps the set temperature one day after switching it on for the first time. Only after then should the freezer be used to freeze fresh foodstuff.
Suitable storage periods
Food purchased in frozen condition: Follow the advice on the maximum storage period indicated on the packaging. Food frozen at home: Fatty and salty food should not be kept frozen for more than three months. Cooked food and low-fat food may be kept up to about six months. Lean food and berries can be kept for approximately one year.
Cabinet interior
Freezer drawers
The freezer drawers make it easy to quickly and easily find the food package you want. To gain space, the drawers can be removed and the products can be put directly on the shelves. On all shelves, except the top shelf, it is possible to place products that protrude 20 mm from the front edge. This allows maximum use of the available space. Do not remove the bottom drawer. It is required to assure proper air circulation.
Thawing
It is best to use the fridge to thaw food. P l ace the foodstuff on a plate with a raised edge to prevent liquids from running out. To quickly thaw food, put it in room temperature or in cold water. When using a microwave oven to thaw foodstuff, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
15
Freezer tray
Use the freezer tray to freeze berries and vegetables. After about 4 hours the food will be thoroughly frozen and can then be packaged normally. Food that is frozen in this way will not stick together, enabling you to use only the amount required.
Ice cubes
Fill the ice tray to max. 3/4 since water expands as it freezes. Release the ice cubes by twisting the ice tray. If ice cubes are kept for a long time, they will dry out and t he taste is affected. Thus, throw away old ice cubes and prepare new ones when needed.
Hints and Tips
Saving energy
· Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is
placed. See the section "Installation". When installed correctly, the cabinet will consume less energy.
· Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door to frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
· Ensure there are no obstructions prevending the
door from cloosing properly.
· Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure
safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of the refridgeration unit
· It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration systemat the back of the appliance with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
· Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should
be placed in the fridge before being transfered to the freezer.
· Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages before placing them in the freezer.
· Do not set the temperature too low in the freezer.
A suitable temperature is in the range of -18°C to -20°C .
· Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a
thickness of 3-5 mm.
· Make sure the door gasket is complete and
always clean.
GB
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 can not store it
straight away. The use of an isulated container is advisable. When you arrive home place the frozen food in the freezer immediately.
· Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and
labelled and used in date order to ensure t hat food is consumed at its best. Remove suspect food from you refrigerator and clean, refer to cleaning and maintenance.
Protect the environment
· Hand over the cabinet packaging and discarded
fridges and freezers to a recycling station. Contact your local city office or your closest dealer for more information.
· Keep foodstuff in re-usable containers. Cut down
on disposable material as much as possible.
· When cleaning the cabinet, use a mild
washing-up detergent.
· Follow the advice in the section "S aving energy"
· The door gasket and coolant used in this
cabinet will not harm the ozone layer.
· All parts in the packaging can be recycled.
· The cabinet has been designed for easy
dismantling and subsequent recycling.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Removing the ventilation grille
The ventilation grille can be removed, e.g. to wash the grille. Make sure the door is open when removing the ventilation grille. Unsnap the upper edge of the grille by pulling outward/downward. Then pull the grille straight out to completely remove it.
Model ZV280, ZV320
Unsnap the ventilation grille by pulling it toward you.
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form on the freezer shelves and around the top compartment. Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm. Remove the freezer drawers and place them on top of each other by turning every other drawer one half turn. Put insulating material around the drawers, e.g. blankets or newspapers. The frozen products can also be packed closely together and be kept in a cold location, e.g. in the fridge. Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer. Take out the drain spout and place it in the bottom freezer drawer where water can collect. Loosen the ventilation grille to enable the bowl to fit under the drain spout. Carefully scrape off the ice when it starts to thaw. Use a wood or plastic scraper. Do not use sharp objects as these may damage the interior. When all the ice has melted, clean and wipe the cabinet dry, then push the drain spout back in place. Switch on the cabinet and replace the frozen foodstuff.
Cleaning
Clean the cabinet at regular intervals.
Do nt use detergents, abrasive powers, high perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or alcohol when cleaning the product
Never use a hair drier or other heating appliances to speed up defrosting. Excessive heat may damage the plastic interior, and humidity could enter the electric appliance making it live.
GB
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accossories with warm wather and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0,5 liter water) Rise and dry thoroughly. Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensur they are clean and free from debris.
17
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm sopy water. Remove the ventilation grille (see the section "Removing the ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean under the cabinet. Twice a year pull out the cabinet from the wall and vacuum-clean the backside of the cabinet, the refrigerating system and the compressor.
When moving the cabinet, lift it by the front edge to avoid scratching the floor.
To Change the Light Bulb
The light is switched on automatically when the door is opened. Before replacing the light bulb, disconnect the power plug from t he outlet. To replace the lamp in the chiller compartment (only cabinets with two doors), first unscrew the lamp grille with a screwdriver. Use a bulb of the same type, E14 socket, maximum ratingof25W.
