This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a),a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has,however,led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor,you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable,and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

Notes on daily use

•  Do not put hot food in the machine.
•  Do not place food directly against the rear panel.
•  Frozen food must not be refrozen after defrosting.
•  Store packaged frozen food according to the instructions of the frozen food manufacturer.
•  Do not place carbonated fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as the pressure they generate can cause them to explode and damage the appliance.
•  Open the door as rarely as possible.
•  Do not leave the door open too long.
•  Do not set the thermostat too low.
•  To reduce energy consumption, leave all accessories, such as drawers, shelves or racks in the appliance.

Notes on installation

•  Unpack the machine and check for damage. Do not connect the machine if it is damaged. Report any damage immediately to the manufacturer. Save the original packaging for possible return shipment.
• Wait at least four hours before connecting the unit to allow the coolant to distribute itself in the cooling circuit.
•  Ensure that there is sufficient air circulation around the unit. Otherwise, the unit may overheat.
•  If possible, the spacers on the unit should rest against the wall. This prevents burns caused by touching the hot compressor or condenser.
•  The unit must not be installed near radiators or cookers.
•  Make sure that the mains plug is always accessible after the unit has been installed.
•  Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit‘s nameplate:

OPERATION

Note: Do not store bottles of liquids in the freezer. Liquid will expand during freezing and the bottle may explode. Never store containers with explosive substances (gas lighters, petrol, ether, etc.) in the freezer compartment.

Switch on the appliance
Turn the temperature control clockwise from Min (slow freezing) to Max (slow freezing). (lowest temperature) to turn on the unit. We recommend the medium setting.

Control lights
If your device is equipped with indicator lights, the lights have the following function:

Green light| The device is switched on. As long as the device is switched on, the control lamp lights up continuously.
---|---
Red light| Indicates that the indoor temperature is too high. This may be due to the unit being put into operation for the first time, being put back into operation after defrosting or a high quantity of new food in the unit. As soon as the

indoor temperature has dropped back to -15 °C, the light

automatically goes out again.

Yellow light| It lights up as soon as the quick freezing function has been activated. As long as the function is active, the temperature cannot be controlled via the thermostat. The compressor cools the appliance down to a certain temperature. Then the light goes out and the unit can be controlled again via the thermostat.

First commissioning

1.  Unpack the device.
2.  Remove all packing material.
3.  Remove documents and accessories from inside the machine.
4. Clean the interior with a mixture of lukewarm water and vinegar and dry thoroughly with a cloth.
5.  Close the lid.
6.  Insert the plug into the socket.
7.  Turn the appliance on by turning the thermostat to the right. At the beginning, turn the controller all the way to the right to the max. Position. The green and red lights will light up.
8. If the appliance is equipped with a switch for quick freezing, switch it on. The yellow light now also illuminates.
9.  Wait approx. 4 Hours until the temperature in the interior has dropped to the required level. As soon as the red light goes out, you can fill the appliance with frozen food. However, do not fill it higher than the filling mark in the appliance.
10. Stop the quick freezing process after 24 hours at the latest by turning the switch back on.

CLEANING AND CARE

Defrost
