OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using the Appliance
Before placing food in the freezer, it needs to be cleaned by wiping the interior
using warm water and a soft cloth. Wipe the freezer completely dry before
replacing any drawers.
Important:
Always allow at least 12 hours before turning on the freezer to
allow the coolant fluid time to settle after the freezer is in place. Failure to do
this may result in damage to the appliance and such damage is not covered by the
guarantee.
Before placing any food in the freezer it is recommended to leave it 24 hours.
This allows you to ensure that the freezer is working correctly and gives enough
time to allow the temperature in the freezer to drop to the correct level.
Using the Appliance
• Before using the appliance, make sure that the thermostat which is located
inside the freezer on the right side of the cabinet is set at position 1.
• Adjust the thermostat control dial to the desired position, bear in mind that
the higher the number, the lower the temperature.
• To ensure the unit is cold enough to freeze food wait 24 hours before filling
with food.
Noises Inside the Unit
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are
perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them.
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling
system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free
gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your unit. This is
the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
