General instructions
You have just purchased a home freezer which
has been produced according to the standards
applicable to these appliances. During
manufacture, the necessary measures have been
taken as required by the Appliance Safety Act,
the Accident Prevention Regulations for
Refrigerating Installations (VBG 20), and the
Requirements of the Association of German
Electrical Engineers (VDE).
The refrigeration circuit has been checked for
leakage.
This appliance meets the radio interference
suppression requirements of EC Directive
821499 EC and the standards concerning the
effects of electrical appliances on power systems
EN 60 555 Parts 1-3/DIN VDE 0838 Parts 1-3,
June 1987.
Before starting up, we recommend you to read
the following Instructions for Use, since only by
doing so can you benefit from all the advantages
offered by your chest freezer.
These Instructions for Use are intended for
several comparable models with different
equipment. Please note only the instructions
which refer to your chest freezer version.
Industrial use
Should you use your home freezer for industrial
purposes, please note the legal requirements
valid in your area.
Choice of location
If possible, your freezer should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room. Please make sure that
your chest freezer or its electrical components are
not exposed to any spraying or splashing water.
The refrigerating unit needs a good supply of air
and proper ventilation in order to function
perfectly. Please make sure that the external
walls of the appliance are not covered over or
blocked.
Ambient temperature has an effect on the power
consumption of the refrigerating system. The
appliance should therefore:
– not stand in the direct sunshine, next to a
radiator, or close to the oven
– stand in a position where the ambient
temperature corresponds with the climate
category for which the appliance was
designed.
You will find data on this on the rating plate, which
is in the interior of the appliance. It will consist of
one of the following:
Climate Ambient temperature
category from ... to
SN + 10 to + 32 °C
N + 16 to + 32 °C
ST + 18 to + 38 °C
T + 18 to + 43 °C
The appliance should be installed horizontally on
a firm surface. Correct any floor irregularities with
suitable packing pieces.
When your chest freezer is in use, you will find
that the outside is warm to touch. This is caused
by the special cooling system, integrated cooling
circuit (shell-and-tube condenser) whose heat
prevents formation of condensation and thereby
rust on the external housing.
Ensure that all surfaces (sides) of your chest
freezer receive sufficient air so that the heat can
be dissipated.
Thermometer
On some models there is a thermometer fitted
into the dividing wall between the large and the
small freezer space.
It shows the temperature of the items at the same
level as the upper filling mark. If your freezer is
not full, please remove the thermometer from its
holder and place it on the frozen food.
You can remove the thermometer by withdrawing
it laterally from its holder (Fig. 1).
If the lid is open for long periods, the temperature
indication will be affected by room air.
Ensure that the storage temperature is at least
-18 °C.
Before starting up
In common with all new appliances, your chest
freezer will emit a specific odour when new.
!t is advisable to clean the interior of the freezer
and all accessories before use (see also
“Defrosting and cleaning”).
Fitting of basket handles
Insert handles as shown in Fig. 3 if the basket is
to be suspended on the plastic cover frame on
the upper edge of your chest freezer.
