Chest Freezer | Congelador Horizontal | Arca Horizontal
Start
• The freezer should wait half an hour before being
connected to 220-240 V/50 Hz power when it is
firstly started.
• The freezer should run for 2 to 3 hours before
loading fresh or frozen foods; in summertime, the
freezer should run for more than 4 hours in advance
considering that the ambient temperature is high.
Energy saving tips
• The appliance should be in the coolest area of the room, away from
heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and from direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool down to room temperature before placing them in
the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run
longer. Foods that take too long to freeze may lose quality, or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before
placing them in the appliance. This avoids frost from building-up
inside the appliance.
• The storage bin should not be lined with aluminium foil, wax paper, or
paper towelling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the
appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended
searches. Remove as many items as needed all at once, and close the
door as soon as possible.
