Before operating
Starting
Final Check
Before you start using the freezer
check that:
1.
For a freestanding appliance;
‘this refrigerating appliance is not
intended to be used as a built-in
appliance.
2.
The front feet have been
adjusted so the appliance is level.
3.
The interior is dry and air can
circulate freely at the rear.
4.
Clean the interior as
recommended under “CLEANING
AND CARE.”
5.
Insert the plug into the wall
socket and switch on the electricity
supply. Avoid accidental disconnection
by taping over the switch, the
compressor will start running in about
five minutes.
6.
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.
7.
Do not load the appliance
immediately it is switched on. Wait
until the correct storage temperature
has been reached. We recommend
that you check the temperature
with an accurate thermometer
(see;Temperature Control and
Adjustment)..
8.
Front edges of the cabinet may
feel warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.
9.
We recommend that you set
the thermostat at MIN setting and
monitor the temperature to ensure the
appliance maintains desired storage
temperatures
10.
(See Temperature Control and
Adjustment section).
Important Notes :
11.
If there is a power failure do not
open the door. Frozen food should not
be affected if the failure lasts for less
than 17 hours. If the failure is longer,
then the food should be checked and
either eaten immediately or cooked
and then re-frozen.
12.
If you find the freezer door
difficult to open just after you have
closed it, don’t worry. This is due to
the pressure difference which will
equalise and allow the door to open
normally after a few moments.
13.
You will hear a vacuum sound
just after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
14.
When you switch on, the
appliance will not start immediately,
because the
appliance
incorporates a protection device in the
electronics - wait for about 5 minutes.
