Avanti CF210G, Instruction Manual

the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the freezer will not start. 

?

Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance. 

?

If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one numerical 
increment at a time.  Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize between adjustments. 
 

?

The Fast Freeze Switch 

?

The light glows while the Fast Freeze switch is in the ‘ON’ pos ition. 

?

The switch overrides the thermostat and will make the compressor operate continuously, lowering 
the cabinet temperature still further than the thermostat setting. 

?

This switch is used to freeze unfrozen food in appreciable quantities. 

?

When loading the freezer, freeze only three pounds of fresh food per cubic foot of freezer space 
at one time. 

?

Distribute packages to be frozen evenly throughout the freezer. 

?

It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting when using the Fast Freeze switch. 
 

?

Defrosting Your Freezer 

?

  When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer 

when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive or ¼ to ½ inch thick. 

?

  Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low. 

?

  How? 

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 coils and will void the 

warranty.  We recommend using the plastic scraper provided with your unit. 
 

?

Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food. 

?

Turn the thermostat knob to “OFF”.  

?

Unplug the freezer. The Power Supply light should be OFF. 

?

During the defrost, the ice melts into the cabinet.  

?

Remove the drain plug on the inside floor of the freezer by screwing out. 

?

Place a shallow pan outside drain outlet.  The defrost water will drain out. 

?

Check the pan occasionally so the water does not overflow. 

?

Clean the interior of the freezer. 

?

Replace the plug on the inside floor. 

?

Reset the thermostat to desired setting.   

?

Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour. 

?

Switch on the Fast Freeze for a minimum of 2 hours. 

?

Return food to the freezer. 
 

 
HELPFUL HINT: 

Defrosting usually takes a few hours.  Leaving the door open will help speed the process.  Also, 
pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting.  If you must use a 
scraper- please use caution - it is very easy to damage the freezer compartment and void your 
warranty. 

?

The Freezer Compartment 

?

This compartment is designed for the long term storage of frozen food.  Storage time is up to 
three months.
