• The location where you place your appliance should be well ventilated.
  • Always move the appliance with two people. Use two hands when moving, lifting or turning the appliance.
• Do not place the appliance near a heat source, such as a stove or boiler, and avoid direct sunlight, so as to guarantee the cooling effect and save on energy consumption.
• Do not place the appliance in a damp place so that it cannot rust and there is no leakage current.
• Do not use the appliance outdoors. This appliance is only intended for use indoors.

3. Installation of the appliance

• This appliance is not intended for use as a built-in appliance.
• Use only the original accessories provided for the installation.
• To reverse the direction in which the door opens, go to section 3.2.
• During operation, the appliance emits heat to the environment. Therefore there must be at least 5 cm clearance on the top, at least 5 cm on both sides and at least 5 cm on the back of the appliance (see also section 2.1).
• Use the front adjusting legs to level the appliance. If the appliance is not level, it is possible that the door may not close properly, reducing the cooling performance of the appliance. If the appliance is not level, this can also lead to malfunctions.
• Make sure that the power cable is not stuck or damaged during installation or positioning the appliance.
• It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply. The plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.
  • Always place the appliance on a moisture-resistant and dry surface.
• Place the appliance on a firm and flat surface (floor) so that it is stable, otherwise vibrations and noise may occur.

4. USE

4.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

• On first use or after a long period of downtime: run the appliance for at least four hours at position 'MAX' before placing products in the freezer. After 24 hours, set the temperature control between 'MIN' and 'MAX'.
• The appliance may not operate optimally (risk of thawing or too high a temperature in the freezer) if it is in a place where the ambient temperature is below the minimum of the temperature range for which the appliance is designed for a longer period of time. The information about the temperature range (climate type) of the appliance is stated on the type plate, which is explained in section 1.3.
• The interior temperature may be affected by factors such as the location of the cooling unit, the ambient temperature and the frequency with which the door is opened. Adjust the temperature setting if desired.
• If vibration noise occurs because the appliance is positioned against the wall or if the wall becomes black due to air circulation around the compressor, you should place the appliance away from the wall.
• Do not place filled glass or can packages in the freezer to avoid breakage due to volume expansion.
• Do not place electrical appliances in the freezer (such as ice cream machines) unless they are of a type expressly declared suitable by the manufacturer.
• Packaging with flammable gases or liquids may leak at low temperatures, do not store flammable gases or liquids in the appliance.
• Do not store containers containing flammable materials, propellant or explosive substances such as aerosols, refill cartridges for fire extinguishers, etc. in the appliance.
• Do not place carbonated or sparkling drinks in the freezer compartment.
• Do not use the appliance if any of its components are damaged or faulty. Replace a damaged or faulty appliance immediately. Remove the plug from the earthed socket and contact customer service.
• Only use the power cable installed on the appliance from the factory. Do not change the power cable. The power cable may only be replaced by an authorised service technician.
• Never use the appliance in a damp room, such as a bathroom, or in the vicinity of a bath, shower or swimming pool.
• Before use, check that the voltage on the socket you want to use matches that on the type plate of the appliance (220-240V\~50Hz). Only connect the appliance to an earthed power socket. Damage caused by faulty voltage is not covered by the guarantee.

4.2 SETTING THE TEMPERATURE

You can set the temperature of the appliance by turning the thermostat button.

• The thermostat can be set to 3 positions: 'MIN', 'MED' and 'MAX'.
• Turn the knob to 'MIN' and the temperature increases.
• Turn the knob to 'MAX' and the temperature decreases.
  • The recommended setting is 'MED'.
• Unplug to switch off the appliance.

*The freezer can operate at an ambient temperature of -15 degrees if the temperature is set close to the lowest or coldest level.

MED MAX MIN

The internal temperature of the appliance may vary due to the ambient temperature, the amount of products stored and the frequency with which the door is opened.

4.3 STORAGE OF FOOD

• The freezer is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for a long time.
• The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is for this appliance: 4.4kg.
• The freezing process takes 24 hours. Do not add any other food to freeze during this period.
• The temperature of the freezer is kept below -18°C if the thermostat is set between 'MIN' and MAX'. This allows food to be stored for a long time. The storage period on the packaging must be observed.
• The ideal temperature setting for the freezer is -18°C. It is possible to set it colder, but in principle this is not necessary. A lower temperature does not mean that food will last longer, but every degree lower does mean more energy consumption.
• Allow hot food to cool to room temperature before putting it in the freezer.
• Only freeze fresh and thoroughly cleaned foods.
• Prepare the food in small portions so that it is soon completely frozen and can then be thawed in the desired amount.
• Do not allow fresh, non-frozen food to come into contact with food that has already been frozen, and prevent the temperature of the food that has already been frozen from rising.
• Lean foods are better and more durable than fatty foods; salt shortens the shelf life of food.
• Ice lollies, if eaten directly from the freezer, can cause frostbite.
• It is advisable to indicate the freezing date on each individual package in order to keep track of the shelf life.
• It is advisable to keep the time between buying the food and putting it in the freezer as short as possible.
• Pack the food airtight into food freshness bags before distributing it evenly over the freezer drawers.
• Packaging bags you use should be dry, in case several packaging bags are frozen together.
• Ensure there is sufficient space between foods. Putting them too close together blocks the cold airflow, affecting the cooling effect.
• To prevent cross-contamination and odour transfer, food should be packed in suitable materials that are sturdy, flavourless, impermeable to air and water, non-toxic and pollution-free.

Tips for buying frozen goods

• When you buy frozen products, read the storage guidelines on the packaging. You can store any frozen product for the period indicated by the star rating. This usually corresponds to the period stated as "best before" on the front of the package.
• Ensure that frozen food packaging is in perfect condition.
  • Always buy frozen products at the end of your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
• Try to keep frozen food together while shopping and on the way home as this helps to keep food cooler.
• Only buy frozen food if you can freeze it immediately. In most shops, you can buy special insulating bags. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
• Use good quality food and handle it as little as possible. When food is frozen in small quantities, it takes less time to freeze or thaw it.
• Estimate the amount of food to be frozen. When freezing large quantities of fresh food, set the temperature control knob to low mode, this sets the freezer temperature lower. This allows you to freeze the food quickly, keeping it fresh.

5. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before cleaning the appliance, carefully review the safety information (Section 1).

CAUTION!

• Always remove the plug from the earthed socket before cleaning the appliance.
- Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children without supervision.
- Never touch the plug with wet or moist hands because of the risk of electric shocks and injury.
- Do not remove objects from the freezer compartment if your hands are wet/damp as this
- may cause grazes or frostbite.
- Do not put your hands unprotected in the bottom of the appliance as the sharp metal corners can cause scratches.
- Do not use mechanical devices, electrical appliances (such as a hairdryer or heater) or other means to defrost your appliance.
- Do not use the appliance if any of its components are damaged or faulty. Replace a damaged or faulty appliance immediately. Remove the plug from the earthed socket and contact customer service.

ATTENTION!

• Clean surfaces that may come into contact with food and accessible drainage systems regularly.
• Never open the appliance. The appliance may only be opened for maintenance by an authorised service technician.
• Do not spill water directly onto the appliance to prevent rust, leakage and accidents.
• Do not use water jets and steam to clean the appliance.
• To prevent damage, do not use a hard brush, steel brush, detergent, soap powder, alkaline detergent, benzene, petrol, acids, chlorine, abrasive powders, hot water or other corrosive or soluble substances to clean the cabinet surface, door gasket or plastic decorative parts etc.
• The electrical parts of the appliance may only be cleaned with a dry cloth.

NOTE

Once in use, it is best to use the appliance continuously. Under normal circumstances it is best not to interrupt its use in order not to affect the lifetime of the appliance.

DEFROSTING

When the appliance is in use for some time, a thin layer of ice is formed on the surface of the inner wall of the freezer compartment (or evaporator). If this layer is more than 3 mm thick, it can affect the cooling effect. Energy consumption increases by about 10 percent for every 2 millilitres of ice. The ice layer should be removed approximately every three months.

Go through the following steps to remove the ice layer:

• Remove frozen food from the appliance. Place the food temporarily in a cool box, cooler bag or an extra freezer.
• Turn the appliance off, open the door and allow the freezer to defrost.
• Place a drip tray under the freezer, or place towels in and under the freezer. Stay nearby to drain meltwater.
• Remove the fixed ice crust when it softens. Do not use scrapers or spatulas as this can damage the freezer.
  • After defrosting, clean the inside of the appliance and turn the appliance on.
• Run the unit for at least four hours on position 'MAX' before putting products back in the freezer. After 24 hours, set the temperature control back to between 'MIN' and 'MAX'.

INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR CLEANING

• Food residues in the appliance can cause a bad smell. The appliance should therefore be cleaned regularly.
• Remove all drawers, shelves, door compartments etc. and clean with a soft cloth or sponge moistened with warm water or a neutral detergent.
• If you are using cleaning agents, clean with a soft cloth or sponge, and wipe dry.
  • Regularly remove the dust from the back panel and side plates of the appliance. Use a dry cloth for this (no water).
• If the appliance will not be used for several months, switch it off, unplug it from the socket, clean and dry it and leave the door open to prevent mould forming in the appliance. For more information on switching off and storage, see Section 7.
