When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours

changes.

Warning light (red)

If the temperature warning light 

lights up, it

indicates that the temperature within the freezer has
reached a level where safe food storage is no longer
ensured.
When the freezer is first switched on, the warning
light will stay on until the temperature has dropped to
a safe level for the storage of frozen food.

Freezing fresh food

In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 12 kg of
fresh food.
Activate fast freeze by depressing the fast freeze
button 

24 hours before you want to freeze your

fresh food, the yellow light 

illuminates. This time

can be shortened depending on the quantity of food
to be frozen. After the time has elapsed place the
food to be frozen in the top compartment of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.

Freezer controls

Starting your appliance

Insert the plug into the wall socket. The pilot light 

will light up to show that the appliance is on.

Temperature control

The temperature inside the freezer is regulated by a
thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one
«OFF» (O) position.
Position 1 = minimum cold
Position 6 = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:

l

Room temperature

l

How often the door is opened

l

How much food is stored

l

Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
To obtain a colder temperature, turn the thermostat
control to the higher numbers; to obtain a warmer
temperature turn the control to the lower numbers.
