Operation of the Temperature control knob

  • The temperature in the cabinet can be controlled with the temperature control knob.
  • The knob should be kept upright normally to adjust the temperature. FREEZING MAX/HI is the strongest cooling position and is suitable for fast freezing. Do not keep the knob at this point for long periods of time.

Food storage

  • There must be space between the foods stored in the cabinet, between the foods 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 beverages with 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 airtight food bags or plastic films before putting in the cabinet to avoid smell-mixing and reduce frosting.
  • Storage of volatile and combustible gases, liquids as strong alkalis, strong acids, petrol, etc. is forbidden.
  • This equipment is designed and intended exclusively for the storage of ice cream and other frozen desserts.

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 and oil, or dirt- removing powder.
  • Dry it after cleaning.
  • Use light soapy water when cleaning the door seal, 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 external surface. Note, keep the power supply, electric cable and plug away from water to avoid electric shock.
  • Except on common failures, those who are not service technician should not take apart and repair the freezer on their own, to avoid worsening the trouble. Unauthorized repair of electrical parts such as compressor or temperature controller 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, open the door for warming and melting. Use soft cloth to absorb water and clean it up.
  • Do not use sharp metal tools such as steel brush to clean the frost film when defrosting to avoid evaporator damage。

Troubleshooting

Breakdown Case Removal method

The indicator is not on.
The compressor does not start.| The plug is not connected to the socket.| Plug it.
No power| Connect the socket with power.
The indicator is on, but the compressor does not work and only buzzes| The power voltage is< 98V.| Put a power-regulator with more than 1000W power together.
The compressor stops a minute after starting, and restarts after a few minutes, and so repeatedly.| The power voltage is> 132V.
The compressor works normally, but the temperature in the cabinet lowers too slowly.| The door is opened too frequently.| Reduce opening times.
There is too much food in the cabinet and it is placed improperly.| Place foods properly and keep space between them for cold air ventilation.
The frost film is too thick.| Take out foods and defrost.
The surface of the condenser is too dirty.| Stop and clean the condenser.
The door does not seal.| Adjust the door seal.
The noise is too loud| The freezer is not placed on an even surface.| Place it on an even surface.
The fixing of the freezer is loose.| Tighten the fixing.
There is contact between pipes.| Separate them.

The following are not faults:

  • When the freezer is working or after it stops for a while, the refrigerant in the pipes is cycling and makes “running water” sounds.
  • The surface temperature of the compressor may be up 70o~80o when it is working.
  • The back side of freezer is hot.
  • In rainy season, the external surface of the cabinet may have dew, which means no defect on normal use. Just dry it with a piece of cloth.
