The thermostat ensures that the required temperature is

maintained in the freezer. Adjust the temperature by turning

the button with a coin that fits the groove. Turning the

thermostat button towards no. 7 makes the temperature in

the freezer colder, and turning the button 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 higher than -18°C.

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.

The green light is illuminated as long as the freezer is

connected.
The yellow light is illuminated when the “Super” button is

depressed. See under “Freezing”.
The red light is illuminated when the temperature in the

freezer is higher than the thermostat setting (alarm).
The red alarm light can be due to:

Insertion of a large amount of fresh food. The red

alarm light will go out after a while.
Opening the lid too long. The red alarm light will go

out after a while.
A defect in the system. See under “If something does

not work”.

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:

Press the square “Super” button (yellow light comes

on). The freezer will now run continuously, creating a

sufficient reserve of the temperature required.
Press the “Super” button 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 “Super”

button on for about 24 hours more.
Then press the “Super” button again (yellow light goes

off). The freezer will return to normal storage

temperature. If you forget to press the “Super” button

again, the freezer will not be damaged by running at

the “Super” setting for some time - but energy will be

wasted.
