Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced with
a 3-prong receptacle in accordance with applicable electrical codes.
This unit requires a standard 220 Volts A.C.~/50Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
The cord should be secured behind the unit and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
OPERATING YOUR UNIT
Setting the Temperature Control
To use as a freezer, yo
u may set the temperature control dial at the “MAX” position by turning the
knob clockwise from the starting or “OFF” position. After 24 hours, adjust the control to the setting that
best suites your needs. Always align the red dot located over the “OFF” marking with the selected
temperature setting.
Thermostat positions with respective degrees
:
MIN
-18 °C,
NORMAL
-20 °C,
MAX
. -24 °C
NOTE: To increase the adjustment from Off to Max, follow the arrow clockwise, instead if you need to
decrease the adjustment from Max to Off, turn the knob counter clockwise to the arrow. Never turn the
knob counter clockwise if it is already in the Off position.
NOTE:
Turning the temperature control to "OFF" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the
power to the unit.
If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting
the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.
Defrosting Your Unit
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the unit
compartment when the frost on the evaporator wall is excessive or ¼ inch thick.
How? To start defrosting, turn the temperature control to "OFF", unplug the unit, remove the food and
shelf. After the frost or ice has melted, discard the melted water and dry up the interior of unit. Then the
unit can be restarted by a turning its thermostat to the desired setting.
IMPORTANT: Ice formation inside the freezer is a normal consequence of freezing. The freezers
are totally DEFROST.
CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a sharp
or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling system and will void the
warranty. We recommend using the plastic scraper provided.
