TO START THE APPLIANCE
1) Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours after installation.
2) Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply.
3) Turn the thermostat control to the required setting. A midway setting is usually suitable for
normal operation (see thermostat control).
Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours for the correct temperature to be reached
before placing food inside.
THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The symbol
means that your freezer will store frozen food at -18 C (-0.4 F) or colder
allowing for long term frozen food storage and freezing of fresh food.The freezer temperature is
controlled automatically by the termostat situated in the control panel.
Due to the different installations, methods of usage and weather conditions, adjustments to the
temperature settings may be required.
These are best assessed against a temperature reading on a thermometer buried in the
frozen food. The reading must be taken quickly as the thermometer temperature will rise
rapidly after removal.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
The maximum quantity of food you can freeze in 24 hours is 11 kg.Place the fresh food on the
freezer baskets. Food may need rearranging to achieve this. During the freezing process the
temperature of fresh food should be reduced quickly so that ice crystals are kept as small as
possible to prevent damaging the structure of food. If freezing takes place slowly large ice crys
-
tals form and these will affect the quality of food once it has defrosted.
Packets to be frozen should be placed in the basket in contact with the baskets surface as far
as possible and spaced apart to allow cold air to Circulate between them. They should not touch
existing packets.
Exceptionally large items can be stored by removing the upper basket.
