UNPACKING.REPACKING AND MOVING

1. Unpacking
   Just cut off the packing band, then pull the carton up.

2. Repacking

3. Moving

   • Be sure the freezer stays in an upright position while moving it.
   • Do not tilt it for more than 45o from upright. Never upset it.
   • Do not apply force on any external part such as pipe, door and handle for moving, freezer must be well packed and secured in long-distance transportation to avoid damage from impacting and or great rocking.

INSTALLATION

The freezer should be placed on a flat and solid-top surface. It should be kept away from sunlight, heat sources, and humid or messy places. The freezer should be kept away from the wall for a proper space for good air circulation. When the freezer is placed in a cupboard, the rear of the cupboard must be removed for good circulation.

OPERATION

1. Before the freezer is plugged in, check the following:

   • There must not be any damage to all electrical wires.
   • Earthing screw must be well fixed.
   • The wall outlet must be properly earthed.
     Be sure that everything is in normal condition and the freezer can be plugged in.

2. When operating for the first time
   When operating is in normal condition and the freezer is without any load until it is auto stops at the desired temperature, usually it takes 2 or 3 hours. Then set the thermostat to the required setting and place foods in.

3. Temperature control
   The freezer’s temperature can be adjusted by turning the knob of the thermostat. The closer to the “3” position the knob is set, the lower the temperature becomes. A medium setting is the most suitable for general operation. Position “3” is cooler than position “1”. The Freezer’s temperature will vary depending on the quantity of food stored and the frequency of the door opening. To maintain good cooling efficiency and save energy, we recommend you not to store too much food and not to open the door too frequently.

CAUTION:
When the thermostat has been turned clockwise to the “3” position, do not attempt to turn it over. Otherwise, it will be damaged.

DEFROSTING

For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer when the frost on the evaporator is excessive 3 to 4 mm thick. To start defrosting, turn the temperature control to “OFF”, unplug the freezer, and remove the food and drawers. After the frost or ice has melted, discard the melted water and dry up the interior of the freezer. Then the freezer can be restarted by turning its thermostat to the desired setting.

CAUTION:
Never use any sharp metallic instruments (e.g. knives) to remove frost/ice from the evaporator as this will damage the evaporator. A punctured evaporator will cause serious problems.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. To clean the freezer, disconnect the power supply and remove foods, drawers etc. Use a solution mixed with 2 spoons of baking soda per litre of warm water to clean the interior. Then wipe it clean with fresh water. Never use acids, chemical thinner, gasoline, benzene or the like for cleaning any part of the freezer. Never use boiling water and benzene to clean plastic parts because they may deform or damage the plastic parts.
2. Too much food or a too large container in the freezer will affect cold air circulation, so some free space must be left. It is recommended that about 70%storage volume is loaded.

Do not store volatile and or explosive materials such as ethers, gasoline, liquefied petroleum gas, adhesives etc. in the freezer. Otherwise, there will be a danger of explosion caused by electric sparks.
