OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Only with proper use will you be able to take full advantage of your new freezer.
Temperature control
•
Set the temperature in the freezer using the thermostat knob. The thermostat control box is located in the
compressor compartment. Turn the thermostat knob to set the temperature inside the freezer. Stages 1
~ 4 are marked on the scale of the controller. Stage 1 represents the highest temperature (lowest cooling
capacity), level 4 the lowest temperature.
•
During normal use, set the knob to a position between steps 1 and 4. The optimal setting is usually in the
middle of the range.
Storage of frozen foods
•
When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, set the thermostat knob to position "4" for at
least 2 hours before loading food.
•
All purchased frozen food should be placed in the freezer as soon as possible to prevent thawing.
•
Follow the instructions printed on the frozen food packaging.
•
Make sure that the foods do not damage the freezer pipes when closing the drawers.
Freezing fresh foods
•
Make sure that the freezing procedure takes place in the strictest possible hygienic conditions, as the
freezing of the food itself does not sterilize.
•
We recommend not freezing the food as a whole, but separated into individual portions. Do not place hot
or warm foods in the freezer.
•
Before storing food in the freezer, wrap it in plastic bags, aluminium foil or freezer bowls.
•
The maximum freezing capacity in kg in 24 hours at a room temperature of 25 °C is given in the "Technical
data" section at the end of this manual. Never freeze more than the maximum allowable quantity of food.
Note:
Never put drinks or food in jars in the freezer compartment. To ensure optimum performance, leave
enough space in the freezer compartment for air to flow around the individual packages.
