Operation and use
Installation
Insert the plug into the socket. In order to switch on the
product, turn the thermostat
(B) to a temperature lower than
<< -16°C >>. The green, yellow and red indicators will light
up. The lighting up of the on/off indicator
(A) means that the
product is switched on. The yellow indicator lights continu-
ously indicating an uninterrupted refrigeration for 5 hours (it
can be switched off manually after 2 hours). The red indica-
tor lights continuously indicating an improper temperature in
the freezing compartment. As well as an intermittent sound
can be heard, which can be stopped by pressing button
(D)
once. You can switch off the freezer by turning the thermo-
stat
(B) in position << >>.
When the product is switched on for the first time,
the quick freeze function will start automatically
and will stop only 5 hours later. You can manually
switch off this function any time by pressing the quick
freeze (D) switch.
Adjusting the temperature
The internal temperature of the freezer is regulated electron-
ically through five temperature positions and a switch-off <<
>> setting.
Position << -16°C >> indicates the highest (least cold) tem-
perature, while position << -24°C >> is for the lowest (cold-
est) temperature. Rotate the thermostat in the desired posi-
tion.
In general, it is best to set the thermostat to << -18°C >> but,
for the purpose of temperature setting, you should also con-
sider
the temperature of the room where the product is
installed,
the frequency of door openings,
the volume of food to be stored in the product,
the location of the product.
Therefore, you should consider all these factors and you
may have to do some testing for finding the best tempera-
ture. If you want a lower temperature, turn the thermostat
into a position of higher number or, vice versa, if you need a
higher temperature, you should set a position of lower num-
ber. Please allow 24 hours for the freezer temperature to
stabilize between two adjustments.
Alarm (red) indicator
The temperature alarm indicator (E) will light up when the
internal temperature of the freezer increases to a level
(above -12°C) where the long-term conservation of the
foods in not ensured. Please note that, when switching on
the freezer for the first time, the alarm indicator will keep on
