TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The thermostat ensures that the required
temperature is maintained in the freezer.
Adjust the temperature by turning the
control knob with a coin that fits the
groove. Turning the thermostat control
knob towards no. MAX makes the
temperature in the freezer colder, and
turning the control knob towards no. 1
makes the temperature warmer.
The correct setting can be found by
measuring the temperature of the top
package in the middle of the freezer. This
should not have a temperature warmer
than -18°C.
OPENING/CLOSING THE LID
The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing
strip to prevent moisture getting inside the
freezer and increasing the amount of frost
formed. When the lid is opened the air
inside the freezer becomes slightly warmer
and expands. As soon as the lid is closed
again the air is cooled immediately. This
may lead to the creation of a vacuum which
makes it hard to open the lid immediately
after it has been closed. This is quite
normal. Wait a few minutes until the
vacuum has disappeared, then open the
lid by pulling gently. Never pull the handle
violently.
CONTROL PANEL
The red signal light remains illuminated to
indicate that the internal temperature of
the applkiance is correct for safe of frozen
food. If the temperature is to high in the
appliance the light will go out.
The light may go out the following
reasons :
There is a power failure.
The lid has been recently opened.
A large quantity of food has been
added to the appliance.
There is a fault.
FREEZING
It is important that fresh food placed in the
freezer is frozen quickly, and that the food
already in the freezer is heated as little as
possible in this connection. If more than
3-4 kg of food is to be frozen:
Turn the control knob to MAX. The
freezer will now run continuously,
creating a sufficient reserve of the
temperature required.
Turn the control knob to MAX 6-24
hours before placing fresh food in the
freezer, depending on how much food
is to be frozen.
Place the food in the freezer and leave
the control knob set to MAX for about
24 hours more.
