Frequently Asked Questions - ZKC410D ZANKER

What to do if the red indicator lights up?

The red indicator indicates an abnormally high temperature in the freezer. This can be due to placing a large amount of fresh food, prolonged lid opening, or a malfunction. Wait a few hours; if it stays on, check the thermostat setting and the frost condition. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How to adjust the freezer temperature?

Use the thermostat located on the control panel. Turn the knob using a coin: towards MAX for colder, towards 1 for less cold. The ideal temperature is lower than or equal to -18°C.

How to use the Super (quick freezing) function?

To freeze more than 3-4 kg of fresh food, turn the thermostat to MAX 6 to 24 hours before adding the food. The yellow indicator lights up. Place the food against the walls. Leave the thermostat on MAX for 24 hours, then return it to its original position.

Why is the lid difficult to open?

After closing, a vacuum can form in the cabinet. Wait a few minutes, the lid will open normally. Never pull the handle violently.

What is the defrosting procedure?

Unplug the appliance and remove the food. Leave the lid open. To speed up, place containers of hot water (not boiling) inside and close the lid. Remove the ice with the plastic spatula (no metal objects). Open the drain chute cap and place the separation plate underneath to collect the water. After defrosting, clean and replace the cap.

What to do in case of a power outage?

If the outage is shorter than the temperature rise time (32 h), the food remains frozen. Do not lift the lid. If the duration exceeds this time, monitor the food: consume it quickly or refreeze after cooking if it has started to thaw.

How to clean the inside of the freezer?

Unplug the appliance and remove the accessories. Clean with a damp sponge and a mild unscented liquid detergent (like dish soap). Rinse and dry thoroughly. Never use abrasive or caustic products or metal sponges.

Why is there excessive frost formation?

Possible causes: poorly closed lid, food touching the lid, high ambient humidity, poorly packaged food. Check the closure, arrange food correctly, and wrap it tightly. If ambient humidity is high, move the freezer to a drier room.

What to do if the freezer does not cool enough?

Check that the plug is fully inserted, the fuse is working, and there is no power outage. If the green and red indicators are on, wait 2 hours after adding fresh food. If the green indicator is on and the red is off, increase the thermostat setting. Significant frost build-up requires defrosting.

How to replace the interior bulb?

Unplug the appliance. Remove the transparent cover. Unscrew the bulb and replace it with an identical model (15 W max), available from after-sales service or in stores. Replug the appliance.

Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care. However, a defect may still occur. Our consumer services department will repair this upon request, either during or after the guarantee period. The service life of the appliance will not, however, be reduced as a result.

This declaration of guarantee terms is based on European Union Directive 99/44/EC and the provisions of the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer has under this legislation are not affected by this declaration of guarantee terms.

This declaration does not affect the vendor's statutory warranty to the end user. The appliance is guaranteed within the context of and in adherence with the following terms:

1 In accordance with provisions laid down in paragraphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of charge any defect that occurs within 24 months from the date the appliance is delivered to the first end user.
These guarantee terms do not apply in the event of use for professional or equivalent purposes.
2. Performing the guarantee means that the appliance is returned to the condition it was in before the defect occurred. Defective parts are replaced or repaired. Parts replaced free of charge become our property.
3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be brought to our attention immediately.
4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer providing proof of purchase showing the purchase and/or delivery date.
5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous ceramic), synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of inappropriate use.
6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do not affect the value or the overall reliability of the appliance.
7. The statutory warranty does not apply when defects are caused by:

• a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused by water,
• abnormal environmental conditions in general,
• unsuitable operating conditions,

• contact with harsh substances.

• The guarantee does not apply to defects due to transport which have occurred outside of our responsibility. Nor will the guarantee cover those caused by inadequate installation or assembly, lack of maintenance or failure to respect the assembly instructions or directions for use.

• Defects that result from repairs or measures carried out by people who are not qualified or expert or defects that result from the addition of non-original accessories or spare parts are not covered by the guarantee.
• Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered or sent to the consumer services department. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky appliances or built-in appliances.
• If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or suspended in such a way that removing and replacing them in the place where they are fitted takes more than half an hour, the costs that result therefrom will be charged for. Connected damage caused by these removal and replacement operations will be the responsibility of the user.
• If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same defect repeatedly is not conclusive, or if the repair costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement with the consumer, the defective appliance may be replaced with another appliance of the same value.

In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial contribution calculated according to the length of time it has been used.

1. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the normal guarantee period will be extended nor that a new guarantee period begins.

2. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, limited to the same defect.

3. Except in the event where liability is legally imposed, this declaration of guarantee terms excludes any compensation for damage outside the appliance for which the consumer wishes to assert his rights. In the event of legally admitted liability, compensation will not exceed the purchase price paid for the appliance.

These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances purchased and used in Belgium. For exported appliances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy the technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency, installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the country concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic and environmental conditions. For appliances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet the qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or requested adjustments are not covered by the guarantee and are not possible in all cases.

Our consumer services department is always at your disposal, even after the guarantee period has expired.
