Installation and switching on the appliance
•
Thoroughly clean the inside of the freezer with solution of water and detergent, and then wipe dry before
fi rst use.
•
Before you fi rst turn it on or after relocation leave the freezer stand for half an hour at rest before plugging
it in. Otherwise, you could damage the compressor.
•
Before plugging it in the outlet make sure that the voltage on the nameplate corresponds with the voltage
in your outlet.
•
The outlet has to be accessible after you place the appliance.
•
We recommend that freezer connects to a separate circuit, which does not power any other appliances.
Use an electrical outlet, which cannot be accidentally disconnected by an e.g. switch.
•
Do not use extension cables to connect the freezer.
•
Before you put in fresh or frozen foods, the freezer should run fi rst at least 2 to 3 hours, in summer months
at least 4 hours due to higher ambient temperature.
•
When you fi rst turn the appliance on, it could run continuously for 24 hours before it reaches a suffi
ciently
low temperature. Avoid frequent opening of door during that time and putting in large amount of foods.
•
If the appliance is turned off or disconnected from the power supply you need to wait at least 5 minutes
before restarting or plugging it in to prevent damage to the compressor.
Note:
Disconnect the freezer from the power supply before any manipulation. After fi nishing the installation
plug the freezer in the outlet and set the thermostat to the required value.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Control panel with the thermostat
•
After connecting the freezer to the power supply the indicator
„
Power
“ (Power) lights up. When the compressor of the freezer is
running the indicator „
Run
“ is on. The indicator „
Alarm
“ lights up if
the temperature inside the freezer is too high.
•
The temperature inside the freezer is set with thermostat control.
Numbers
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
and
6
do not mean a particular temperature,
but indicate the freezing power degree. The higher the number, the
higher is the freezing power and, correspondingly, the lower is the
temperature inside the freezer. You might want to select the most
appropriate place for specifi c foods.
• Position
„
OFF
“ marks turned off cooling.
Notes:
•
The temperature in the freezer is aff ected by the ambient temperature, by the temperature of the freshly
placed foods and the frequency of door opening. If necessary, adjust the thermostat.
Storing the foods in the freezer
•
The freezer is intended for long-term storage or deep-frozen foods and making of ice cubes.
•
When storing frozen food, follow the instructions on food packaging. If there are no instructions given, the
food should not be stored for more than 3 months from date of purchase.
•
When buying frozen food, make sure that it was frozen at suffi
cient temperature and that the packaging
is not damaged.
•
Frozen foods should be transported in a suitable packaging and placed in the freezer as soon as possible.
•
If the frozen food packaging shows signs of moisture or swelling, the food was probably stored at improper
temperatures and its quality is low.
•
The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, the frequency of
door opening, type of food and the time needed to transport food from the store in the freezer. Never
exceed the indicated maximum storage life.
