This appliance is designed to operate in

ambient temperatures (surrounding air

temperature) between 16 (50 F) and 32

If these temperatures are exceeded i.e.,

colder or warmer, the appliance will not

operate correctly. Should the ambient

temperatures be exceeded for long periods,

the temperature in the freezer section will rise

above -18 C and food spoilage may occur.

Before Use

Remove all securing tapes.

Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm

water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml

to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or

detergent as the smell may linger. Dry the

appliance thoroughly.

INSTALLATION

SIGHTING OF THE APPLIANCE

Do not keep your appliance in a room where the temperature is likely to fall below 12ºC

(54ºF) at night, especially in winter, as it is designed to operate in ambient temperatures

between +12 and +32ºC (50 and 90ºF). At lower temperatures the appliance may not

operate, resulting in a reduction in the storage life of the food.

Do not place the appliance near cookers or radiators or in direct sunlight, as this will

cause extra strain on the appliance’s functions. If installed next to a source of heat or

fridge, maintain the following minimum clearances.

Choose a well-ventilated location with no less than 10cm clearance around the freezer.

Place the freezer in a location with a firm base. In order to prevent vibration and

excessive noise. Level the freezer by adjusting the two front feet.

DO NOT PLACE THIS PRODUCT IN AN EXCESSIVELY COLD OR HUMID AREA S UC H A S A

GARAGE OR CELLAR ETC.

WAIT 24 HOURS BEFORE PLUGGING IN AND SWITCHING

ON THIS PRODUCT.THE COOLANT FLUID NEEDS TIME

T O SETTLE.

DO N O T STORE F O O D IN THE FREEZER UNTIL IT HAS

BEEN RUNNING FOR AT LEAST 2 HOURS.

UNDER NO CICUMSTANCES MUST THE COOLANT

CIRCUIT BE DAMAGED.

THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY, ANY OTHER USE MAY

INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY AND MIGHT BE DANGEROUS

If you are discarding an old appliance with a lock or catch fitted to the door, ensure that it is

left with the door catch disabled and in a safe condition to prevent children getting trapped

inside.

We suggest you contact your local authority for information on the correct and safe

method of disposal.

Dispose of all packaging in an environmentally friendly way.

Your freezer is suitable for the long-term storage of commercially frozen foods and can be

used to freeze and store fresh food.

If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the

failure lasts for less than 12 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked

and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.

NOISES INSIDE THE FREEZER

If you have not owned a freezer before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual

noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!

GURGLING, WHOOSHING

These noises are caused by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system. It has become

more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not

affect the performance of your freezer.

HUMMING, PURRING OR PULSATING

This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

SHOPPING FOR FROZEN FOODS

Your Freezer is 4 star.

When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You

will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star

rating. This is usually the period stated as ‘Best Before’, on the front of the packaging.

CHECK THE FREEZER TEMPERATURE

Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen

foods. It should show a temperature lower than -18°C.

CHOOSE PACKS CAREFULLY

Take a quick look at the frozen food package and make sure it is in perfect condition.

PURCHASE FROZEN FOOD LAST

Always buy frozen products last on your visit to the supermarket.

KEEP FROZEN FOODS TOGETHER

When you are going around the supermarket and when you are travelling home, if you

keep all the frozen foods together they will help to keep each other cold.

STORE FOOD STRAIGHT AWAY

Don’t buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can

be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep frozen food cold for

longer.

FREEZING FRESH FOOD

Freezing 4Kg or more of fresh food.

Set the temperature control to “Super” 24 hours before introducing the fresh food.

2 hours is sufficient for less than 2Kg of fresh food.

The compressor will work continuously whilst on the “Super” setting.

Return the temperature setting to normal after a further 24 hours, 2 hours if less than 2Kg.

It is not necessary to use this setting when introducing ready frozen food.

TO THAW FROZEN FOODS

1. Cover food loosely.

2. Thaw at room temperature. Don’t forget that thawing in a warm area encourages the

growth of bacteria.

3. Always make sure there are no ice crystals in the food before cooking, particularly

with meat. These crystals indicate that the food is not fully thawed. They result in lower

temperatures when cooking. Lower cooking temperatures may not destroy bacteria.

4. Cook food as soon as possible after thawing.

5. Drain off and throw away any liquid lost during thawing.

THAWING FROZEN VEGETABLES

For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be

added directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into

a saucepan and heated gently until thawed.

OVEN THAWING FROZEN FOODS

Many microwaves and ovens have thaw settings. To avoid bacterial build up, only use

these if you intend to cook the food immediately afterwards.

SAFETY TIPS

Never re-freeze anything that has thawed out unless you cook it again, to kill off harmful

bacteria. Never re-freeze thawed shellfish.

FREEZING FRESH FOOD (TIPS)

Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities, it

freezes faster, takes less time to thaw and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.

First, estimate the amount of food you will be freezing. Use the Thermostat Control Dial

to make your freezer colder (about -30° C), it will therefore freeze quicker and keep in

the goodness. However you should use it sparingly to conserve energy.

PROLONGED OFF PERIODS

If the refrigerator is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as follows:

Disconnect the refrigerator from the main supply by removing the plug from the socket.

Clean and dry the inside as instructed under the heading of cleaning the appliance.

Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from building up while the

appliance is not in use.

If there is a power failure for a short time keep the door closed check the contents of the

refrigerator every so often.

POWER FAILURE

If there is a power failure for a short time less than 16 hours keep the door

closed Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for more than 16

hours.

Extra protection can be given by covering the appliance with two or three thick

blankets.

If a long power failure is anticipated, try to get the foodstuff into another appliance or

cold store, if possible.

If the power cut is longer than 16 hrs then check the content of the freezer.

If the food has defrosted, cook and refreeze the food or it should be eaten

immediately. Never refreeze food that as been defrosted.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before any cleaning or maintenance is carried out you must disconnect the appliance

from the mains supply by removing the plug, never remove the plug by pulling on the

mains cord. Remove the plug by pulling on the plug itself.

It is recommended that when cleaning the appliance, both the inside and outside, can be

cleaned using warm water and a little bicarbonate of soda. Use 1 teaspoon to 1.2 liters

of water

Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax

polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or alcohol.

External Cleaning, wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.

Do NOT use abrasive products. There are sharp edges on the underside of the product

so care should be taken when cleaning.

Once or twice a year dust the compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or

Vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the

appliance and Cause excessive electricity consumption.

Warning:

The refrigerating system must not be damaged at any time.

DEFROSTING THE FREEZER

The freezer will need defrosting periodically (when the frost is more than 3mm thick).

Turn the temperature control to “MIN” and unplug from the mains socket.

Hold the plug itself. Do not remove the plug by pulling on the mains cord.

Remove all the frozen food and wrap in thick blankets to retain the cold or move it to

another freezer.

Leave the freezer door open with a suitable container under the front to catch the

water as the frost melts.

When the freezer is fully defrosted, clean the inside (see the section on cleaning and

maintenance). Then close the door and connect to the mains, now set the temperature

control to your required setting (usually the “Normal” setting).

Leave the freezer running for approximately 4 hours before re-introducing the frozen

food.
