TEMPERATURE MEMORY FUNCTION

In the event of a power interruption (power surge, breaker switch, etc.), the unit can remember the previous temperature settings, and when the power is recovered, the cabinet temperature will return to the same setting temperature as before the power went off.

DEFROSTING

• The unit defrosts automatically in normal operating conditions.

• The evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically.

• The condensate collects in the drainage channel behind the rear wall of the unit, and flows through the drainage hole into the drip tray
  by the compressor where it evaporates.

• However, frost may accumulate on the evaporator if the unit is repeatedly opened in a high heat or high humidity location.

• If this frost pattern does not clear within 24 hours, your unit will require manual defrosting.

USING THE FREEZER

•  These freezers are designed for the long-term storage of frozen food. Storage time is up to three months.
•  The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.
•  Pre-packaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods manufacturer’s instructions for a three star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
•  Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.

TEMPERATURE ALARM / DOOR ALARM

•  An audible alarm sounds if the storage temperature is not cold enough. The temperature display flashes at the same time.
•  The cause of the temperature being too high may be:
  •  Warm fresh food was placed inside
  •  Too much warm ambient air flowed in when rearranging and removing food
  •  Power failure for some time
  •  The appliance is faulty
•  The audible alarm is automatically silenced and the temperature display stops flashing when the temperature is sufficiently cold again.
•  If the door has been left open for more than 60 seconds, the alarm will sound. Pressing the POWER key once can switch off the audible alarm.

DOOR LOCK

• Your unit is provided with a lock and key combination.
• The keys are located inside the plastic bag that contains the Instruction Manual. Insert the key into the lock and turn it counter-clockwise to unlock the door.
• To lock the door, do the reverse operation, making sure the metal pin is engaged completely. Remove the key and put it in a secure place for safekeeping.

SHELVES

• To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door all the way open when pulling the shelves out of the rail compartment.
•  Any of the shelves can be removed to store larger items.
•  When removing the shelf out of the rail compartment, make sure to remove all items first.
• Then move the shelf to the position where the notch of the  shelf is exactly under the plastic post and lift the shelf. In order to replace the shelf, repeat steps described above in reverse.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE

• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items, including shelves.
• Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water).
•  Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
• Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area where the controls are located, or any electrical parts.
•  Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
• Use an approved stainless steel cleaner to clean the door and handle. Do not use steel wool or a  steel brush on the stainless steel.

CAUTION

Failure to unplug the appliance during cleaning could result in electrical shock or another personal injury.

POWER FAILURE

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect the contents.

VACATIONS

•  Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
•  Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the  door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.

MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE

1. Remove all items.
2. Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
3. Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
4. Tape the door shut.
5. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also, protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.

ENERGY-SAVING TIPS

•  The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room or outdoor location, away from heatproducing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
•  Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
•  Do not keep the door open any longer than necessary.
•  Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the compressor to run longer.
•  Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the unit.
•  Unit shelves and storage bins should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
•  Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible
