OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

STARTING

THE FREEZER

The freezer is ready to operate as received, when connected to the power supply. After connecting to power
supply, close lid and allow freezer to operate. The unit will run from 1 to 2 hours (possibly longer, depending
on conditions) before operating temperature is reached. It will then start and stop (cycle) at fairly regular
intervals. It is recommended that food not be placed in the freezer until you are satisfied that it is operating
regularly and no final adjustments are necessary. 
Once your freezer is starting and stopping (cycling) regularly, it is ready to freeze and store foods. The proper
food storage temperature is -18°C (0°F). Do not operate freezer attemperatures below -19°C (-3°F), as this
does not improve food preservation and only results in longer unit (cycle) running time. 
It is not advisable to freeze more than 25 kg.(50 lbs.) of food in any 24 hour period. It will take 15 or more
hours of unit running time to freeze this amount of food.
When adding fresh, unfrozen food packages, store them against the walls. The sensing bulb of the thermostat
is fastened to the liner wall on the “insulation side”of the freezer. In view of the value of the contents of your
freezer, it is advisable to inspect contents and check freezer operation regularly.

SETTING

TEMPERATURE

CONTROL

thermostat control knob, located on the front of the freezer cabinet. To start the freezer
and achieve maximum cooling quickly;

section of the graduated control dial.

• Allow the freezer to run at this setting for 3-4 hours.
• When maximum cooling is achieved, turn back the 
temperature control knob setting to the 2 o’clock position
on the graduated blue control dial. See Fig.14.
• To turn off the freezer (no cooling), rotate the control
knob to the “0”(off) position. See Fig.15.
