Starting
Insert the power supply plug into the nearest wall
socket (the function indicator light (A) will light up
indicating that the freezer is receiving electrical
input).
Turn the thermostat knob (E) to the right to a
medium setting (the temperature alarm light (C)
will light up).
For the satisfactory conservation of frozen foods,
the freezer’s internal temperature must be lower
than –18
°
C.
Wait until the temperature alarm light (C) turns off
when the optimum temperature has been reached.
Thermostat settings may be modified according to
the surrounding room temperature, the location of
the freezer and the frequency of door openings, etc.
To turn off the freezer, turn the thermostat knob to
the «
O
» position.
Quick-freezing
For quick-freezing, turn the N/S knob (D) to the
«S» symbol. The quick-freezing indicator light (B)
will then light up.
The temperature alarm light (C)
The temperature alarm light turns on automatically
whenever the temperature within the freezer rises
above a certain value which might endanger
satisfactory long-term conservation.
It is perfectly normal for the temperature alarm
light to remain lit up for a short time after the
freezer is initially turned on.
It will remain lit up until the optimum temperature
for the conservation of frozen food is attained.
Internal thermometer
This indicates the internal temperature of the
freezer. It may indicate a temperature above –18
°
C
when large quantities of food are placed inside for
freezing or when the door is left open for a long
time.
