2. A good choice for storage of your variety of frozen food products. It is easy to lift up the lid to get your frozen food and close the lid to seal the freezer in.

Caution for Using

1. unpack all packages before using the freezer. Don’t bend it over more than 60° while moving it.
2. The freezer should be installed in an environment of good ventilation, Cool and dry, and without corrosive gas. It should not be installed close to heat sources or directly under the sunlight.
3. A space of more than 10cm between the wall of the front and the back of the freezer should be allowed.
4. When installing, the wheels should be padded well so as to make the freezer level and stable, or it will cause vibration and too much noise.
5. When initial operation, the freezer should run emptily for about one hour before storing food in it.
6. Before placing food into the freezer, adjust the temperature control to the lowest point (highest number) and let it run until the temperature of the inner cabinet decreases to 0°Fahrenheit.
7. Put the food in, and after 12 hours adjust the temperature control to the normal point.
8. The thermostat could adjust the temperature inside the freezer. When you turn the knob in clockwise. The bigger the figure, the lower the temperature. Generally, the position of ‘4’ is suitable.
9. The’0’ position stands for stopping operation.’
10. Max’s position will be operating not continually as the compressor won’t stop (no cycle). Turn the temperature control to “4” or “5” when the temperature inside is stable for ice cream and similar products.
11. Never store flammable, explosive, or corrosive products in the freezer, and keep the freezer away from such materials.
12. If power is cut off, wait at least 5 minutes before turning it on again to avoid damage to the compressor.

Food Storage

• Do not fill the freezer full of products. You should leave space between items and the inner surface of the cabinet, so as to keep good ventilation of cold air and freeze evenly.
• Do not put in any bottled or canned beverage with a freezing point above the temperature in the cabinet when it is below zero.
• For foods that should be moisture-free or lose water easily, wrap them up with hermetical food bags or fresh films before putting them in the cabinet for the sake of avoiding smell-mixing and reducing frosting.
• Storage of volatile and combustible gases, liquids such as strong alkalies, strong acids, petrol, etc. is forbidden.
• Never put hot food directly in the freezer. Food should be cold or frozen before placing it inside.
• The cabinet is intended exclusively for the storage and/or display of packaged foods.

Maintenance

• The freezer should be cleaned regularly. When cleaning, turn off the power, take out the foods in the cabinet, and clean the inside using water or a little neutral detergent.
• Do not use boiling water, acid, chemical diluents, petrol, oil, or dirt-removing powder.
• Dry it after cleaning.
• Use light soap water when cleaning the door seal, and apply a little talcum powder on it after natural drying to extend its service life.
• Use a soft cloth with water or a little detergent to clean the outer surface. Note, keeping the power supply and lower part of connect wires away from water to avoid electricity leakage.
• Except for common breakdowns, those who are not service technician should not take apart and repair the freezer on their own so as to avoid worsening the trouble.
• Unauthorized repair of an electrical part such as compressors, and temperature controllers is forbidden.

Defrosting

• Defrost for better freezing efficiency when the frost film in the cabinet is 4-5mm thick.
• When defrosting, turn off the power, take out the frozen foods, and open the door for warming and melting. Use a soft cloth to absorb water and clean it up.
• Do not use sharp metal tools such as steel brushes to clean the frost film when defrosting so as to avoid evaporator damage.

Trouble Shooting

The indicator is not on. The compressor does not start.

The following are not faults

• When the freezer is working or after stopping for a while, the refrigerant in the pipes is cycling and gives out＂running water＂ sounds.
• The surface temperature of the compressor may be up to 70℃~80℃ when it is working.
• The back side of step freezer gives out heat.
• In the rainy season, the outer surface of the cabinet may have dew, which causes no defects during normal use. Just dry it with a piece of cloth.
