Handling the appliance
Putting it into use
Put the plug into the mains socket.
Turn the thermostatic control knob to „SUPER” position
according to the figure and operate the appliance at least
for 4 hours.
Then reset the thermostatic control knob to „NORMAL”
position. This time the appliance is suitable for storing
frozen and deep-frozen foods.
Controlling the temperature
The thermostatic controller interrupts the operation of the
appliance automatically for more or less time depending
on the setting then restarts it assuring the required tem-
perature.
Setting the thermostat knob can be done by rotation.
Turning the control knob clockwise cooling becomes
more and more intensive.
In the appliance -18 °C or lower temperature can be
reached if the thermostat knob is set to „NORMAL” posi-
tion according to the figure.
The thermostat can be switched off („STOP” position),
which means breaking the circuit of the compressor i.e.
stopping cooling.
The temperature coming about in the freezer is effected by
not only the position of the thermostatic control and the
ambient temperature, but frequency of door openings and
the quantity of food put into it, etc.
Freezing
Freezing different products should always be done in the
freezing compartment after proper preparing.
Set the thermostatic control knob to „SUPER” position 4
hours before freezing food in small quantity and about 24
hours before in case of products in bigger quantity. This
time the compressor operates continually to reach tem-
perature necessary for freezing.
Place the foods to be frozen in and operate the appliance
as written for about 24 hours.
After these reset the thermostatic control knob to „NOR-
MAL” position.
In maximum position of the thermostat - in case of
increased demand e.g. during heatwaves - the
compressor may operate continually. This does not cause
damages to the appliance.
Storing
It is practical to replace frozen products into the storing
compartment after freezing has finished so that to make
room in the freezing compartment for another freezing.
Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate foods already
stored.
Hints and ideas
In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given about
how to use the appliance to reach maximum energy sav-
ing and there is environmental information about the appli-
ance as well.
How to make ice cubes
To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice cube tray with
water and put it to the frozen food compartment. Wetting
the bottom of the tray can shorten preparing time.
Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the tray under run-
ning water then twist or hit it.
Some useful information and
advice
After opening and closing the door of freezer vacuum
will rise inside the appliance because of the low tem-
perature. So wait 2-3 minutes after closing the door -
if you want to open it again - while inner pressure
equalises.
Take care of operating the freezer at a position of ther-
mostatic control so that the inside temperature can
never go beyond -18 °C, since temperature higher
than this can deteriorate frozen foods.
It is practical to make sure of faultless operation of the
appliance daily so as to notice possible failure in time
and prevent deterioration of frozen foods.
