Operating Instructions
Switching On Your Unit
1.
The internal temperature of your unit is controlled by a
thermostat. There are seven settings, of which position
7
is
the coldest, position
1
is the warmest and position
0
turns the
unit off.
2.
Adjust the thermostat control dial to the desired position,
the higher the number, the lower the temperature. Position 4 is the recommended setting for the unit
when operating at normal room temperature (between 16°C and 32°C).
3.
The unit may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or a particularly cold
room, or if you open the unit’s door often.
4.
To ensure that the unit is cool enough to sufficiently chill your food wait 24 hours before filling it with
food.
5.
If you are concerned that your unit is not being kept cold
enough and wish to check the temperature you will need
a special fridge / freezer thermometer. These are available
from most supermarkets and hardware shops. Place
the thermometer in the fridge compartment and leave
overnight, the correct temperature should be between 0°C
and 5°C. Alternatively, place the thermometer in the middle basket of the freezer compartment and
leave it overnight. The correct temperature inside the 2-star section should be -12°C or lower and -18°C
or lower in the 4-star section.
Knowing Your Freezer Compartment
The freezer compartment is the 4-star section.
The temperature inside the 4-star section
should always below –18°C.
Adjusting the Temperature
The internal temperature of your freezer is controlled by a thermostat. The recommended position is
between 1 and 4 for colder environments (i.e. during winter) and between 5 and 6 for hotter environments.
Please adjust according the thermostat accordingly.
Fast Freezing
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. Setting the thermostat to position 7 makes your freezer
operate at its coldest (approximately -28°C ). It allows you to quickly freeze your food and retain more of
the goodness. Freezing will be complete after 24 hours. After 24 hours turn the thermostat back to the
position based on the current environment. Never freeze large quantities of fresh food at one time.
