Using the Appliance
Before Use
Remove all packaging and securing tapes. Wash inside the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry 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 hrs after installation. 2. Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply. 3. Slide the 'fast freeze' switch to the right (yellow indicator light will illuminate) and leave to run for 4 hours to allow the correct temperature to be reached before placing food inside. 4. The red indicator light will also illuminate until the correct temperature is reached. 5. When the appliance has reached the set temperature and the red indicator light has gone out slide the 'fast freeze' switch back to the left.
Thermostat Control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by the thermostat situated on the control panel. 0 = Off Turning the thermostat clockwise makes the temperature progressively colder.
Freezing Fresh Food
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. If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen: 1. Slide the fast freeze switch (d) to the right 6-24 hours before placing the fresh food in the freezer, the yellow light will illuminate. The compressor will now run continuously, to ensure that the fresh food is frozen as quickly as possible. 2. Place the food in the freezing compartment and leave the 'fast freeze' switch on for a further 24 hours.
