CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FREEZER
How to use?
• Press temperature set button until super freezing light comes on.
• Super freezing led will light during this mode.
• Maximum amount of fresh food (in kilograms) to be frozen within 24 hours is shown on the appliance label.
• For optimal appliance performance in maximum freezer capacity, set the appliance to active SF mode 3 hours
before you put the fresh food into the freezer.
During this mode:
If you press temperature set button, the mode will be cancelled and the setting will be restored from -16.
Note: "Super Freezer" mode will be automatically cancelled after 30 hours or when freezer sensor temperature drops
beneath -32 °C.
Freezer temperature settings
• The initial temperature of the Setting Display is -18°C.
• Press freezer setting button once.
• Every time you press the button, the setting temperature will decrease. (-16°C, -18°C, -20°C,.. Super Freezing)
• If you press freezer setting button until super freezer symbol is displayed on freezer settings display and you do
not press any button within the following 3 seconds, Super Freezing will blink.
• If you keep on pressing, it will restart from last value.
Warnings for temperature settings
• Your temperature adjustments will not be deleted when an energy breakdown occur.
• Do not pass to another adjustment before completing an adjustment.
• The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects the
temperature in the freezer. If required,change the temperature setting.
• It is not recommended that you operate your freezer in environments colder than 10°C .
• The temperature setting should be set by taking into consideration how often the freezer door is opened and
closed, how much food is stored in the freezer and the environment in which and the positioning of the appliance.
• We recommend that when first using the freezer it should be left running for 24 hours uninterrupted to ensure
it is completely cooled. Do not open the freezer door, or put food inside for this period.
• Your freezer has a 5 minute built in delay function,
designed to prevent damage to the compressor. When
power is applied to your freezer, it will begin to operate
normally after 5 minutes.
• Your freezer is designed to operate in the ambient
temperature intervals stated in the standards, according
to the climate class stated in the information label. It is
not recommended that your freezer is operated in the
environments which are out of the stated temperature
intervals in terms of cooling efficiency.
• This appliance is designed for use at an ambient tem-perature within the 10°C - 43°C range.
Cleaning
• Before cleaning your freezer, turn your mains supply off and remove the plug from the socket.
• Do not wash your freezer by pouring water on to it.
• Use a warm, soapy cloth or sponge to wipe the interior and exterior of your freezer.
• Carefully remove all baskets by sliding upwards or outwards and clean with soapy water. Do not wash in a
washing machine or dishwasher.
• Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all purpose cleaning agents to clean your freezer. This
may cause damage to the plastic surfaces and other components with the chemicals they contain.
• Clean the condenser at the back of your freezer at least once a year with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
Make sure that your freezer is unplugged while cleaning.
Defrosting the Freezer compartment
Freezer defrost process
• Small amounts of frost will accumulate inside the freezer depending upon the length of time during which the
door is left open or the amount of moisture introduced. It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to
form at places where it will affect the close fitting of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet,
thus encouraging continuous running of the compressor. Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed
with a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to
accelerate the defrosting process. Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor. For the removal of thin frost
it is not necessary to switch off the appliance.
• For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and empty the contents
into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep them cold. Defrosting will be most
effective if carried out when the freezer is nearly empty, and it should be carried out as quickly as possible to
prevent undue increase in temperature of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during defrosting will shorten the storage life. Provided that
the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area they should keep for several hours.
• Dry the inside of the compartment with a sponge or a clean cloth.
