Operation
Switching On Your Unit
1. Connect the mains cable to the mains socket. The
internal temperature of your unit is controlled by a
thermostat. There are four setting
MIN
,
NORMAL
,
MAX
and
SUPER
.
2. After the unit has been on for 20 minutes adjust
the thermostat control dial to
NORMAL
. This is the
recommended setting 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 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 centre of the unit,
where it can be read easily. Leave overnight, the
temperature in the unit should be between -18°C
or lower.
Adjusting the Temperature
The internal temperature of the unit is controlled by a thermostat.
SUPER
position is the coldest
setting and it is used for fast freezing. The recommended position is between
MIN
and
MAX
, but
it should be adjusted according to the environment.
Fast Freezing
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. Setting
SUPER
makes your unit operate
at its coldest temperatures (approximately -28°C ) continuously. It helps to quickly freeze and
retain more of the goodness of your food. Freezing will be completed after 24 hours. After
freezing your food turn the thermostat control dial back to
NORMAL
(-18°C). Never freeze large
quantities of fresh food at one time.
Noises Inside the Unit!
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal,
but you should be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has
become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will
not affect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the
refrigerant around the system.
