Once the appliance has settled, locate the thermostat dial on the product and 

set to “

-20" position and switch on the power. The compressor will begin to 

work. Close the door.

You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped 
to the cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear of the 
appliance. When the compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring 
sound or pulsating noise. The thermostat controls the operation of the 
compressor, and you may hear a slight click as it cycles in and out (this is 
normal).

To save energy, you should minimize the frequency and duration of door 
opening.

Vacuum Balancer Fitment Instructions (Optional)

After closing the doors, a vacuum seal may form that will prevent re-opening of 
the doors for around 1 minute. To prevent this, we have included an optional 
Vacuum Balancer with your appliance.

The Vacuum Balancer is a small piece of plastic applied to the bottom of the 
freezer by removing the tape attached, and sticking to the lower part of the 
freezer as shown below.

- 8 -

Note: The Vacuum 
balancer should be 
positioned a minimum of 
60mm, to a maximum of 
100mm from the outside 
of the appliance/
