Use
Freezer
• The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen
food
• Never put hot foods in the freezer, allow food to cool fully before
storing them in the freezer
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of
frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be
stored for more than three months after the purchase date
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away
before putting into the fridge
• Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This
reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food
after thawing
• Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping
sticking together, ensure it is dry
• Label the food before freezing with information including type of
food and dates of storage and expiry
• Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been
completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is required, to
prevent wastage
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer
compartments as they could explode
• Check the rating plate to confirm the maximum amount of fresh
food that can be frozen within a 24 hour period
• Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount
• To freeze fresh food more quickly, set the temperature control to
setting 5 a few hours prior to placing food in the freezer
8| Instruction Manual
Storage and use
This freezer is suitable for storing deep frozen food (food which
has already been frozen before being added to the freezer), for
storing fresh food for a short period (2-3 weeks) by freezing it and
for making ice and ice cream.
Always remember to observe and
adhere to the recommended expira-
tion date of food.
Fresh food, and food which needs to
be stored for a long period, should
be kept at a temperature of -18°c or
below.
For this, we recommend using setting
4 or 5
If food only needs to be stored for a
short period then a setting of 2 or 3
will suce.
Please remember: Ice cream or ice for drinks should be allowed to
sit at room temperature for several minutes before being used as
they can still be cold enough to cause damage to skin and lips.
Please note: The freezer should be defrosted regularly. If you are
unsure of when then it is advisable to do so when, and if, the ice
layer reaches 5mm thickness.

Controls
A. Freezer temperature adjustment sensor
This button is used to adjust the temperature within the freezer.
Press this sensor once to activate adjustment, and then as many
times as necessary until the desired level is selected. The settings
range from 1 to super freeze ( ) with 1 being the warmest and
super freeze being the coldest.
Please note: Where possible, avoid having the temperature setting
on 5 or the super freeze all of the time. This well help to alleviate
strain on the compressor and system.
B. Freezer temperature setting display
This display will illuminate the current temperature setting.
Adjusting the temperature will cycle through this display.
Please note: You do not use numbers 1 to 5 or the snowflake to
change the temperature. Instead, use the freezer temperature
adjustment sensor (A).
C. Power button
Use this sensor to switch the appliance on and o (standby mode).
The sensor will be illuminated when the appliance is o.

Care and cleaning
Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
any cleaning or maintenance.
The freezer should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate
of soda and lukewarm water. Do not use abrasive products or
detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean the drawers separately by hand with a mild solution of
washing up liquid and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.
If the appliance is not to be used for prolonged periods of time,
unplug and clean the appliance. The doors should be left slightly
ajar to prevent the formation of mildew and unpleasant odours. It
is important however that you ensure that no child or person could
become trapped in the appliance.
Super freeze function
The 6th setting on the control panel, represented by the snowflake
(Fig. 3), is a super freeze function. This should be used when
freezing large quantities of food all
at once. Activate this function 2 or
3 hours before introducing the food
and do not leave it to run for more
than necessary. Leaving it to run for
longer will place unnecessary strain
on the cooling system. The function
will automatically deactivate after
approximately 24 hours.
