The realized temperatures vary with the conditions of use of the appliance, such as installation place of the
appliance, ambient temperature, and frequency of lid opening, extent of filling the freezer with food. The position
of the thermostat knob should be adjusted according to these factors. Normally, for an ambient temperature of
approx. 25
℃
, the thermostat knob should be adjusted to the mid position.
We recommend you to check the temperature with a thermometer to ensure the Freezer is kept at the desired
temperature. Remember to take your reading very quickly, since the thermometer temperature will rise very
rapidly after it is removed from the freezer.
Please remember each time the lid is opened the internal temperature will rise with the escaping cold air.
Therefore, never leave the lid open and ensure it is closed immediately after food is put in or taken out.
Indicator lights
The indicator lights are placed on the front side of the freezer for easy visibility.
Functions of the indicator lights are as follows:
- Red Light
– indicates that the appliance is supplied with electric energy.
- Green Light
– indicates that the compressor is working.
STORING FROZEN FOOD
Prepackaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer’s
instructions for a
freezer compartment.
To ensure high quality is achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer, the following should be
remembered:
1
．
Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
2
．
Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best Before” dates on the packaging.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Place fresh food to be frozen near the side walls to ensure fast freezing and away from the frozen food, if
possible.
Never exceed this maximum capacity. 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 center as quickly as possible.
Take special care not to mix frozen food and fresh food.
DEFROSTING
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has been formed.
Alternatively, you may switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the power plug.
Extract the water conduit and put in a water container.
6 hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat knob at “5” position to make sure the food is at the lowest
temperature when taken out. All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool
place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Remove the freezer basket, and leave the lid open. Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the
freezer to speed up the defrosting.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting. When defrosting is
finished, flow out the defrost water which is collected at the bottom of the freezer as in the below diagram and dry
the interior thoroughly. Switch on the Fast Freeze and leave it on for about three hours.
1. A drain outlet is designed at the bottom of the freezer liner, and when defrosting, remove its rubber
cover (you can find the rubber cover in the freezer accessory bag and install it yourself), the defrost water
flows out and is discharged from the drain pipe. (NOTE: PLEASE KEEP THE RUBBER COVER IN A SAFE
PLACE DURING THE DEFROSTING AND PUT IT BACK AFTER DEFROSTING IS DONE )
2. Extract the water conduit by 20-25mm until the water hole can be seen.
3. Twist the water conduit until the arrow points downward.
4. After defrosting is done, make sure there is no more water coming out before putting the water conduit in
place and make the arrow point upward.
Important Notes:
• Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the frost.
• Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting.
• It is normal that water beads or frosts appear on the freezer collar and door gaskets in wet weather, which
will
not affect normal use. In such cases, please clean it with a dry cloth in a timely manner.
