IMPORTANT: 

Make  sure  the power  cable  is  not caught under  the  appliance  during and after  carrying  /  moving 

the appliance, to avoid the cable being cut or damaged.

 

When positioning your appliance, take care not to damage your flooring, pipes, wall coverings etc. Do not move 
the appliance by pulling by the lid or handle. Do not allow children to play with the appliance or tamper with the 
controls. Our company declines to accept any liability should the instructions not be followed.   

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS   

1.  If possible, avoid placing the appliance near cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight as this will cause the 

compressor to run for long periods. If installed next to a source of heat or refrigerator, maintain the following 
minimum side clearances:   

From Cookers                                                                                      4" (100 mm)   
From Radiators                                                                                  12" (300 mm)   
From Fridges                                                                                        4" (100 mm)   

2.  Make sure that sufficient room is provided around the appliance to ensure free air circulation. Ideally, a space 

of no less than 10cm must be left around the freezer, and ensure the gaps as shown in 
the below diagram.   

3.  The appliance should be located on a smooth surface. 
4.  It is forbidden to use the freezer outdoors. 
5.  Protection from moisture. Do not locate the freezer in moist space to avoid the metal 

parts getting rusted. Do not spray water on the freezer, otherwise insulation will be 
weakened and current leakage may occur. 

6.  Refer to "Cleaning and Care" section to prepare your appliance for use.   
7.  If the freezer is installed in unheated areas, garages etc., in cold weather, condensation 

may form on the outer surfaces. This is quite normal, rather than a fault. Remove the 
condensation by wiping with a dry cloth.   

START-UP 

Final Check   
Before you start to use the freezer, please check that:   
1.  The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear.   
2.  Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE".   
3.  Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply; the Red light goes on. Avoid accidental 

disconnection by taping over the switch. When the Green light glows, the compressor starts running.   

4.  You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system 

may also give rise to noise, whether the compressor is running or not, which is quite normal.   

5.  If you are about to store frozen food, open the freezer lid and check whether the freezer has reached the 

correct temperature. Then you can put in the frozen food.   

6.  Do not load the appliance immediately after it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage temperature is 

reached. It is recommended to check the temperature with an accurate thermometer.   

Important Notes:   

•    The climate class is 5/7, and the room temperature is between 35

  and 40

•    In case of a power failure, do not open the lid. Frozen food will not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 

20 hours. If the failure time is longer, the food should be checked and eaten immediately, or cooked and then 
refrozen.   

•    If the lid of the chest freezer is difficult to open just after being closed, don’t worry. This is due to the pressure 

difference, which will equalize after a few minutes, allowing the lid to be opened normally.   

FREEZER OPERATION 

 
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Temperature adjustment   

The temperature of the freezer is adjusted by means of the knob assembled with 

the thermostat. ”1, 2, 3, 4 or 5” 

does not represent a specific temperature. The smaller the number, t

he higher the temperature. So, position “5” is 

the lowest temperature.
