• Important! Before plugging in your freezer, you must check that you 

have a power outlet which is compatible with the plug supplied on the 

appliance lead.

Operation

• The temperature selector is located on the middle of the upper beam.
• Setting “Min” = Moderate cool temperature
• Setting “Mid” = Normal operation (suitable for most environments)
• Setting “Max”= Coolest temperature
• During high ambient temperature days (ie. hot summer days), it may 

be necessary to set the temperature to the coolest setting (“Max”). This 

may cause the compressor to run continuously in order to maintain a 

low temperature within the cabinet.

• For the first time you install your refrigerator, set the temperature at 

“Mid” and give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before 

adding food (normally up to 24 hours).

Noise from your freezer

• You may notice that your freezer makes some unusual noises. This is 

completely normal for refrigerators and freezers, and the noises are 

caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid within the cooling 

system.

Tips for keeping food within the freezer

• Cooked meats & fish should always be stored on a shelf above raw 

meat/fish to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meat/fish in a container 

which is large enough to collect juices and cover properly, placing the 

container on to the lowest shelf.

• Leave space around your food to allow air to circulate inside the unit.
• Ensure all parts of the appliance are kept cool.
• To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, pack or cover the food 

separately. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be wrapped.

• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you place into the freezer. 

This will help to maintain the internal temperature of the freezer.

• To prevent cold air from escaping the freezer, try to limit the number of 

times you open the door.
