The role of the pressure equalisation valve

(not induded with all models)

Fig. 12

The pressure equalisation valve installed in your machine performs

automatically the elimination of the pressure difference which

otherwisw would make the opening of the cover difficult or even im-

possible.

Its operation may – as the case may be - be heard due to the air flowing

in through the airing outlet arraged in the rear wall of the deep freezer

box.

For a safe operation, keep the two openings of the valve free, do not

cover therm!

The patented LOW FROST System reduces the ice- build-up in the chest

freezer by up to 80 percent, which results in up to five times long er

periods between the requirement to defrost.

To get the full benefit of the system, please observe the following

points:

The amount of ice-build-up in any freezer is ve ry much dependent of

the moist u re of the surrounding air. The ice will build up quicker in a

humid climate th an in a dry climate. Therefore you should avoid in-

stalling your freezer in ve ry humid surroundings.

The LOW FROST system minimizes the amount of ice caused by the

natural te mperature cycle of the freezer. Howeve r, ice-build-up from

other sources is not reduced. The most important other sources a re

poorly wrapped food and wa rm air introduced when the lid is opened.

Therefore, it is important to ensure that the lid isn't opened unneces-

sarily, and the lid is not obst ru cted by packs of food when closed.

If food sta red in the freezer is not wrapped p roperl y, humidity from

the food will settie as ice on the freezer walls. Food quality will also

deteriorate, so ensure that food put in the freezer is wrapped weil.

Maintenance and Cleaning.

The LOW FROST system does not need any maintenance or cleaning

during normal use. If needed the pipe can be wiped with a soft cloth.

Do n ot use any sharp or piercing tools, as this may damage the system.

Attention! Before filling the freezer for the first time with previously

frozen goods, the necessary storage temperature of -18 °C must have

been attained.
