Before operating
Final Check
Before you start using the appliance check
that:
1. The front legs have been adjusted for
perfect levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate
freely around the appliance.
3. The interior is clean as recommended
under "Cleaning and care.”
4. The plug has been inserted into the wall
socket and the electricity is switched on.
Avoid unintentional disconnection by placing
sticky tape on the switch.
And note that:
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts. The liquid and gases sealed within the
refrigeration system may also make some
noise, whether the compressor is running or
not. This is quite normal.
6. The top of the cabinet may be slightly
currugated which is quite normal due to the
manufacturing process used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the thermostat
control midway and monitor the temperature
to ensure the appliance maintains desired
storage temperatures (see the "Temperature
control and Adjustment" section).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is
switched on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We
recommend checking the temperature with an
accurate thermometer (see the "Temperature
control and Adjustment" section).
Storing frozen food
Your freezer is suitable for the long-term
storage of commercially frozen foods and also
can be used to freeze and store fresh food.
If there is a power failure, do not open the
door. Frozen food should not be affected if the
failure lasts for less than 18 hrs. If the failure
is longer, then the food should be checked
and either eaten immediately or cooked and
then re-frozen.
Freezing fresh food
Please observe the following instructions to
obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one
time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your
appliance in 24 h.
Placing warm food in the freezer compartment
causes the compressor to operate continously
until the food is frozen solid. This can
temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the
refrigeration compartment.
When freezing fresh food, keep the
thermostat control at the medium position.
Small quantities of food up to 1/2 kg (1 lb) can
be frozen without adjusting the temperature
control.
Making ice cubes
Fill the icecube tray 3/4 with water and place it
in the freezer. Loosen frozen trays with a
spoon handle or a similar objects; never use
sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks.
Defrosting
A) Fridge compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically. The thawed water runs to the
drain tube via a collection container at the
back of the appliance (Fig. 6).
During defrosting, water droplets may form at
the back of the fridge compartment where a
concealed evaporator is located. Some
droplets may remain on the liner and refreeze
when defrosting is completed. Do not use
pointed or sharp-edged objects such as
knives or forks to remove the droplets which
have refrozen.
If, at any time, the water from the defrosting
does not drain from the collection channel,
check that no food particles have blocked the
drain tube.
