• 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.
