This appliance is designed to operate at temperatures specified in the
table below is equipped with Advanced Electronic Temperature Control System
[AETCS] which ensures that at the advised setting [4 – four on the knob] the
frozen food in the freezer will not defrost even if the ambient temperature
falls as low as -15 °C.
When first installed the product MUST NOT be placed in low ambient
temperatures because the freezer will not reduce to it’s standard operating
temperature. Once it has reached its steady operating state it can be re-
located. So you may then install your appliance in a garage or an unheated
room without having to worry about frozen food in the freezer being spoilt.
However at low ambient temperatures mentioned above, fridge contents are
likely to freeze, so check and consume food in the fridge accordingly. When
the ambient temperature returns to normal, you may change the knob setting to
suit your needs.
**** If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, the food in the fridge
compartment will freeze.So, we recommend you don’t use the fridge compartment
in such low ambient conditions. You can continue using the freezer compartment
as usual.
Using your refrigerator
Setting the operating temperature
The operating temperature is regulated by
the temperature control.
1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting)
MAX. = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting)
Please choose the setting according to the desired temperature.
The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency
with which the door is opened and the amount of foods kept inside.
Frequently opening the door causes the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended to close the door again as soon as possible
after use.
The normal storage temperature of your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F).
Lower temperatures can be obtained by adjusting the thermostat knob towards
Position MAX.
We recommend checking the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the
storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature.
Remember to take the reading immediately since the thermometer temperature
will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.
Indicator lights
There are three coloured indicator lights located inside the appliance which
show the operating mode of the freezer.
Amber Indicator
Illuminates when the thermostat knob is turned to MAX. position and stays on
until the fast freeze operation is deactivated manually.
Fast-freeze operation is for freezing fresh food.
Green Indicator
Illuminates when the appliance is connected to the mains and will glow as long
as there is electricity present.
The green indicator does not give any indication of the temperature inside the
freezer.
Red Indicator High Temperature Alarm
After the appliance is turned on for the first time the alarm is not active
for 12 hours (The red LED indicator is switched off).
After this period of time the red LED indicator is switched on in the
following situations:
-If the appliance is overloaded with fresh food -If the door is left open by mistake.In these situations the red LED indicator will continue to be switched on until the appliance reaches the preset temperature. If the red LED indicator is still switched on then wait
for 24 hours before calling service.
Thermostat knob
The thermostat knob is located on the indicator light frame.
Important: When you press the fast-freeze switch or adjust the set
temperature, there may be a short delay before the compressor starts to
operate. This is normal and not a compressor fault.
Freezing
Freezing food
You can use the appliance for freezing fresh food as well as for storing
prefrozen food.
Please refer to the recommendations given on the packaging of your food.
- Attention
Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the bottle may burst when the liquid in it is
frozen.
Be careful with frozen products such as coloured ice-cubes.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 hours. See the
rating label.
In order to maintain the quality of the food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not be exceeded, and the temperature inside
the freezer will not rise.
- Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food always separated with freshly placed
food.
When deep-
freezing hot food, the cooling compressor will work until the food is
completely frozen. This can temporarily cause excessive cooling of the
refrigeration compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult to open just after you have closed it,
don’t worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalize and
allow the door to open normally after a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
Fast freeze
If large amounts of fresh food are going to be frozen, adjust the control knob
to max. 24 hours before putting the fresh food in the fast freeze compartment.
It is strongly recommended to keep the knob at MAX. position at least 24 hours
to freeze maximum amount of fresh food declared as freezing capacity. Take
special care not to mix frozen food and fresh food.
Remember to turn the thermostat knob back to its previous position once food
has frozen.
Defrosting The freezer compartment defrosts automatically.
Freezing fresh food
-
It must be preferred to wrap or cover the food before placing them in the refrigerator.
-
Hot food must cool down to the room temperature before putting them in the refrigerator.
-
The foodstuff that you want to freeze must be fresh and in good quality.
-

Moreover, they must be well closed and they must be made from easyto-use materials that are suitable for deep freeze usage. -
Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be re-frozen.
-
Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results.
- Do not freeze too large quantities of food at one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
- Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the cooling system to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid.
- Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.
Recommendations for preservation of frozen food
- Prepacked commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer’s instructions for a ( 4 star) frozen food storage compartment.
- To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained, the following should be remembered:
