Operation
Before Use
Remove all packaging and securing tapes. Wash inside the
appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml
to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the
smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.
Starting the Appiiance
Insert the plug into the wall socket. The green pilot light
will illuminate to show that the appliance is switched on.
Thermostat Control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by the
thermostat situated on the lower front of the cabinet.
To
operate the freezer, proceed as follows:-
Turn the thermostat control beyond the 'O' position.
When you first start the freezer we suggest that you turn the
thermostat to a medium setting ie 3-4
0 = Off
1 = Lowest setting, minimum cold
7 = Highest setting, maximum cold
Allow the freezer to run for several hours before placing food
inside.
Do not fill the freezer to more than 5mm below the top edge.
Opening/Closing the Lid
The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing strip to prevent
moisture entering the freezer, increasing the amount of frost
formed.
When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer becomes
slightly warmer and expands. When the lid is closed again
the air is cooled immediately. This may lead to the creation
of a vacuum which makes it hard to open the lid again
immediately. This is quite normal.
Wait for a few minutes until the vacuum has subsided and
then open gently. Never use excessive force on the handle.
Freezing Fresh Food
It is important that fresh food placed in the freezer is frozen
quickly and that the food already in the freezer is heated as
little as possible.
If more than 3-4kg of food is to be frozen:
1. Turn the thermostat to the coldest setting '7' 6-24
hours before placing the food in the freezer.
2.
Place the food in the freezer and
leave the
thermostat at '7' for a further 24 hours.
3.
After 24 hours, return the thermostat to the normal
setting.
E
lf the thermostat is accidentally left at the coldest
setting the freezer will not be damaged, but
energy will be wasted.
Frozen Food Storage
When first starting the freezer or if the freezer has been out of
use for some time, we advise you to run your appliance for at
least 2 hours at the coldest setting '7' before storing frozen
food.
Do not exceed the storage
period
indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than
is necessary.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the
freezer can cause a low temperature skin burn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are
damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
frost/freezer burns.
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will not
be affected if the power cut is short and the freezer is full.
Do not open the lid. Should the food begin to thaw it must
be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen.
(See Hints and Tips)
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be
thawed in the fridge or at room temperature, depending on
the time available.
Small food items may even be cooked
from frozen, in this case cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should
either be eaten as soon as possible, or thrown away.
Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not been
completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen.
Defrosted
cooked
food
must
never be
refrozen.
