CONTROL PANEL

The green light is illuminated as long as the freezer is connected. The yellow light is illuminated
when the “Super” button is depressed. See under “Freezing”. The red light is illuminated when
the temperature in the freezer is higher than the thermostat setting (alarm).
The red alarm light can be due to: Insertion of a large amount of fresh food. The red alarm light
will go out after a while. Opening the lid too long. The red alarm light will go out after a while. A
defect in the system. See under “If something does not work”.

CAPACITY 

The freezing capacity of the freezer is stated in the data plate (kg/24 hours). Do not exceed the
amount stated - if you do, the freezing time will be extended. The data plate is located inside the
lid.

IMPORTANT The freezing capacity stated can be utilised to the full occasionally to
freeze large amounts of fresh food. However, if the freezer is filled with large amounts
of food for freezing every day, the capacity stated is reduced by about one-third.

LOCK

The lock works as shown in the drawings. Remember to
keep the key out of the reach of children.

BASKET

The baskets are designed for the storage of food which has already been frozen. The handles
can be placed in two positions, as shown in the drawings.The baskets can either be placed
inside the freezer or hung on the edge of the casing.

LOW FROST SYSTEM.

The patented LOW FROST System reduces the ice-build-up in the chest freezer by up to 80 percent, which results in up to five times lon-
ger periods between the requirement to defrost. To get the full benefit of the system, please observe the following points: The amount of
ice-build-up in any freezer is very much dependent of the moisture of the surrounding air. The ice will build up quicker in a humid climate than in
a dry climate. Therefore you should avoid installing your freezer in very humid surroundings. The LOW FROST system minimizes the amount of
ice caused by the natural temperature cycle of the freezer. However, ice-build-up from other sources is not reduced. The most important other
sources are poorly wrapped food and warm air introduced when the lid is opened. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the lid isn’t opened
unnecessarily, and the lid is not obstructed by packs of food when closed. If food stored in the freezer is not wrapped properly, humidity from
the food will settle as ice on the freezer walls. Food quality will also deteriorate, so ensure that food put in the freezer is wrapped well. Maintenance
and Cleaning. The LOW FROST system does not need any maintenance or cleaning during normal use. If needed the pipe can be wiped with
a soft cloth. Do not use any sharp or piercing tools, as this may damage the system.

DEFROSTING

The formation of frost on the inside of freezers cannot be avoided. Frost is formed when mois-
ture contained in the air comes into contact with the cold surfaces of the freezer. Consequently,
the lid should only be opened when necessary, and it should never be left open. A thin layer of
ice or frost does not affect the function of the freezer adversely, and can be removed carefully
using the scraper provided.

IMPORTANT Never use a knife or any other sharp implement to remove frost.

When the frost or ice layer is 10-15 mm thick, the freezer should be defrosted. We suggest that
you defrost your freezer when there is little or no food inside. Switch off the current. Remove
the contents of the freezer, wrap them in newspapers, and leave them in a cold place. The
speed of defrosting can be increased by placing one or more bowls of hot (not boiling) water
inside the freezer and closing the lid. Open the lid after a while, and remove the layer of ice
carefully. The defrost water can be collected in a bowl as shown in the drawing. Do not try to speed up defrosting by using anything
other than hot water, since this may damage the freezer. After defrosting, clean the inside of the freezer.

IMPORTANT Remember to replace the plug in the drip water drain.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR FREEZER INSIDE

Remove the plug from the mains socket, and remove all loose accessories before cleaning the freezer. The best time to clean your
freezer is after defrosting and before the electricity supply is connected again. Use a damp cloth to clean your freezer. Use hot water,
and a mild, non-aromatic cleaning agent. After cleaning the freezer, clean the basket/baskets before replacing them.

IMPORTANT Never use strong cleaning agents, scouring powder or strongly aromatic cleaning agents to clean your freez-
er inside, since this will damage the inside and leave a strong smell.
