thermostat setting.Once the freezer has returned

to normal temperature and the red warning light

is off, press the "Super" button again (yellow light

goes off). The alarm can be due to:

•

Insertion of a large amount of fresh food. The

alarm will stop after a while.

•

Opening the lid too long. The alarm will stop

after a while.

•

A defect in the system. See under "If

something does not work".

Temperature regulation

(Fig. 7.)

The thermostat ensures that the required

temperature is maintained in the freezer. Adjust

the temperature by turning the button with a coin

that fits the groove. Turning the thermostat

button towards ,,7" makes the temperature in the

freezer colder, and turning the button towards ,,1"

makes the temperature warmer.The correct

setting can be found by measuring the

temperature of the top package in the middle of

the freezer. This should not have a temperature

higher than -18°C.

Energy-saving during

Half-or part-loading

When your chest freezer is half- or even less

loaded, you can save energy if you store your

frozen food in the lower area - not higher than

the green stacking mark on the separating wall

(Fig. 6).

Turn the temperature controller in the green

storage area (Fig. 5) and monitor the storage

temperature with a thermometer placed on the

frozen food. The minimum storage temperature

should be -18 °C. When storing frozen food above

the green stacking mark, please never forget to

reset the temperature controller to a colder

setting; settings 3 to 7.

Maximum loading/

filling mark

Please note that you should store frozen food

only as far as the lower edge of the plastic cover

frame (figure 8/arrow).

Freezing fresh food

Your freezer can be used for storage of frozen

food and for freezing of fresh food.

Before filling the freezer for the first time with

frozen food (deep-frozen food); the optimum

storage temperature of -18 °C must have been

attained at the filling mark.

If you intend to freeze food yourself, switch on

the fast freeze button 4 to 24 hours beforehand

(according to quantity).

Freeze only sound fresh food.

Please make sure that as far as possible

airtight packaged food has good contact with

the side refrigerating panels during freezing.

In this manner, the food will freeze right through

more quickly.

After around 24 hours (or less for smaller

quantity), the fast freeze switch can be switched

off.

If you intend. to freeze more food, retain the fast

freeze setting.

Only place the food in the baskets after freezing

is completed!

It is particularly important to keep the freshly

inserted food separate from the already frozen

food.

For this reason, we recommend using the small

freezing compartment on the internal right-hand

side for freezing purposes. Only when freezing

larger quantities (e: g. a quantity corresponding

to the daily freezing capacity) must you freeze

part of the food having proper contact with the

side walls in the large freezing compartment.

The daily freezing capacity of your chest freezer

is shown on the rating plate. This quantity should

not be exceeded. If freezing is carried out every

day, it is advisable to reduce this maximum figure

to obtain improved frozen food quality. That is to

say, if you want to carry out freezing .on several

consecutive days, only utilize 2/3 to 3/4 of the

maximum capacity.

Hint for test centres

Filling plans for determination of freezing capacity

and warm-up time according to DIN Standard

conditions may be ordered direct from the

manufacturer.
