3. ASSEMBLY

3.1 Location

• After removing the packaging, clean the outside of the freezer thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth and the inside with a cloth dampened with warm water.
• The location you choose to install the appliance must be well ventilated. Do not place the freezer in a narrow recess or near heat sources such as a hob, avoid direct sunlight to ensure freezing performance and save on energy consumption. Do not place the appliance in a damp place to avoid rust or loss of power. The result of dividing the amount of cooling power of the appliance by the total space of the room in which it is installed must be less than 8 g/m^3 .
  Note: The amount of refrigerant used by the appliance is specified on the rating plate.

- Adequate air circulation is necessary for efficient operation, since during operation, the appliance gives off heat, therefore, at least 70 cm of free space should be left at the top (2) and 20 cm at the sides (1). (Fig. 2).

Note: Figure 2 only illustrates the space required for product installation.

- Place the appliance on a solid, flat floor to keep it stable, otherwise vibrations and noises will occur. Placing the appliance on soft, uneven or unstable surfaces such as carpets, straw or polyvinyl chloride mats, etc., may reduce the efficiency of the freezer, increase the risk of malfunction and potentially cause damage to the appliance or its environment.

- In any case, you can also place solid support plates under the freezer to avoid colour alteration due to heat dissipation.

- The place where the appliance is installed must be well ventilated.

3.2 Levelling

• The device must be well levelled to avoid vibrations.
• If necessary, adjust the levelling feet to compensate for the unevenness of the floor.
• The levelling feet can be easily rotated by slightly tilting the unit.
• Turn the levelling feet counterclockwise to raise the freezer and clockwise to lower it.

3.3 Preparation

• Once the appliance is properly installed and cleaned, do not switch it on immediately.
• When installing the freezer, wait 2 to 4 hours before starting it up. This will ensure that the coolant is fully stabilized, and maximum cooling capacity is guaranteed, while avoiding possible damage.
• IMPORTANT: Check that the electrical voltage and frequency match the data indicated on the nameplate of the freezer.
• Let the unit idle for 24 hours to allow the compartment to cool to the proper temperature.
• Once the appliance has cooled down completely, put the food in.
• In summer, when the temperature is high, food may take longer to cool completely (try to open the door as rarely as possible).

3.4 Removing the power supply cable from its compartment

Depending on the model of freezer you have:

Figure 3:

2. After opening the cover as shown in the picture, pull the power cord out of the hole.
3. After removing the power cord, the cover must be closed in the position opposite to the original opening.

This freezer must be installed free-standing and cannot be built-in. Otherwise, it will cause problems, such as reduced performance and reduced lifetime of the device. In addition, the warranty will be voided.
The freezing speed of the appliance depends on the amount of food stored and the ambient temperature. If too many room temperature foods are introduced at the same time, the thermostat should be set to maximum 24 hours in advance or prepare ice for cold storage. Large foods should be divided into small pieces, otherwise they may deteriorate.
➢ Check that all accessories are properly installed and clean the freezer with lukewarm water and mild detergent, wipe dry with a cloth.
Note: Electrical components should be cleaned with a dry cloth.

If the appliance is installed in a wet place, be sure to check if the earthed cable and the circuit breaker are working normally. If vibration noises occur due to contact of the appliance with the wall or if the wall turns black due to air convection around the compressor, keep the appliance further away from the wall. This appliance may cause interference in mobile phones, landline phones, radio receivers, or televisions near the refrigerator, so in this case, keep the appliance as far away from these objects as possible.

3.5 Installation of the wheels (optional)

5. FOOD STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

• The freezer is designed for freezing food, long-term storage of frozen food and production of ice cubes.
• Do not store poisonous or dangerous substances in the freezer. Your freezer is designed to store only edible products.
• There should always be some space between the food inside to allow air to circulate.
• Food should be kept in airtight containers to avoid drying out or giving off odours.
• Hot food must be cooled before being placed in the freezer.
• Reducing the frequency of door opening can reduce electricity consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than necessary.
• The lower the selected temperature, the higher the energy consumption.
• If the room temperature is high, the selected temperature is also low and the freezer is full, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice to form on the evaporator. If this happens, increase the freezer temperature.
• Ensure good ventilation. Do not cover grilles and ventilation openings.
• Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food with aluminium foil, film, freezer bags, airtight containers, etc.
• For more efficient freezing and thawing, divide food into small portions.
• It is advisable to label and date all frozen foods. This will help to identify foods and to know when they should be used before they spoil.
• Observe the storage times recommended by food suppliers.
• Food must be fresh when you freeze it (especially fruit and vegetables).
• Do not freeze bottles or cans containing liquids, particularly beverages containing carbon dioxide, as they may explode during freezing.
• Do not put hot food in the freezer. Cool them to room temperature before placing them in the drawer.
• To avoid increasing the temperature of already frozen food, do not place fresh, unfrozen food directly next to it. Place food at room temperature in the part of the freezer where there is no frozen food.
• Do not use ice cubes or eat ice cream or popsicles immediately after removing them from the freezer.

• Do not refreeze thawed food. If the food has thawed, cook it, allow it to cool and then freeze it.

• Consume thawed food immediately.

• Too low a temperature setting may shorten the lifespan of the freezer.
• The entire freezer is suitable for the storage of frozen food products.
• Leave enough space around the food to allow air to circulate freely.
• For proper storage, refer to the label on the food package.
• It is important to wrap the food in such a way as to prevent water from entering.
• Before storing food, make sure that the packaging is not damaged as the food may deteriorate. If the container is swollen or damp, it may not have been stored under optimal conditions.
• To limit the defrosting process, place frozen food immediately in the freezer after purchase.
• If food has thawed, even partially, do not refreeze it. Consume them as soon as possible.
• In the event of a prolonged power failure or equipment breakdown, remove stored frozen foods and check if they are still edible. Then store them in a sufficiently cool place or in another freezer.
• To thaw foods, remove them from the freezer and let them thaw at room temperature or in the refrigerator. For quick defrosting, you can use the microwave defrost function.
• If you only want to thaw part of a package, remove the portion you need and immediately close the rest. This will prevent freezer burn and reduce icing of the remaining food.
• ATTENTION: Storing too much food during operation after initial connection may adversely affect the freezing effect.
• IMPORTANT: Prolonged storage at inadequate freezing temperatures can cause loss of quality or spoilage of food and may even cause food poisoning. The minimum temperature in most cases should be -18°C or lower.
• Observe the expiry date and the storage instructions on the package. The following table shows approximate shelf life, which depends on many factors.

Food item Storage time (months)

Energy saving recommendations:

• Close the door carefully and make sure that it is completely closed after use, otherwise the freezer will consume more energy and more ice will form.
• Do not place the freezer near stoves, radiators or other heat sources. If the ambient temperature is high, the compressor will run more frequently and longer, resulting in higher energy consumption.
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation at the base, sides and rear of the unit.
• To obtain more storage space, e.g. for large refrigerated or frozen products, you can remove the central drawers and accessories. The top and bottom drawers and accessories should be removed at the end, if necessary. (IMPORTANT: the number of accessories depends on the freezer model).
• Arrange the interior space uniformly to contribute to optimal energy use.
• Open the door only as far as necessary to minimize cold loss. Opening the door promptly and closing it properly reduces energy consumption.

• The door seals must be in perfect condition.

• Check the contents of the freezer at regular intervals to ensure the integrity of the food.

• Prepare the fresh food you want to freeze in small portions to ensure rapid freezing.
• Wrap all food in aluminium foil or plastic freezer bags and make sure to remove air.
• Place small items in the basket (not available on all models).
• Do not put hot food in the freezer. Let it cool down first.

6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION: Before cleaning the appliance, disconnect it from the mains. Wait at least 5 minutes before restarting, as frequent starting may damage the compressor. Do not touch the plug with wet hands; doing so may result in electric shock. Avoid spilling water on the appliance, so that it does not rust or cause an accident. Do not reach into the bottom of the appliance, as this may cause damage.

Cleaning the interior and exterior

• Food residues in the appliance can cause unwanted odours, so it should be cleaned regularly, at least once a month.
• The inside of the product should be cleaned periodically to avoid unpleasant odours.
• Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the product. You can use two tablespoons of baking soda and one litre of warm water. Then rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. After cleaning, open the door and allow it to air dry before turning it on.
• For hard-to-reach areas, such as corners, a soft-bristled cloth or brush is recommended to ensure that contaminants and bacteria do not accumulate.
• Clean the dust that accumulates on the rear panel and side plates of the appliance regularly.
• If you have used mild soap, be sure to rinse it with clean water. Next, dry it with a dry cloth.
• Do not use any abrasive materials or corrosive products to clean the device, hard or wire brushes, organic solvents (alcohol, acetone, benzene, isoamyl acetate, etc.), boiling water, acidic or alkaline products, as they may damage the surface or the interior and deform or damage plastic parts.
• Clean the exterior surface with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water, neutral detergent, etc., and then wipe dry.
• Check the door gasket regularly to ensure that there is no debris. Clean the gasket with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy water or diluted mild soap. Carefully dry the door gasket and clean the ventilation slots with a wooden stick wrapped with cotton.
• Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short circuits or affecting the electrical insulation.
• It is advisable to run the freezer continuously once it has been started. Generally, its operation should not be interrupted, otherwise its service life could be affected.

ENGLISH

Interruption of use of the appliance for a long period of time

If the appliance is not to be used for several months, first switch it off and disconnect the plug from the mains socket.

Remove all the food.

• Clean and dry the interior completely. To avoid mould or unpleasant odours, leave the door slightly open.
• Store the appliance in a ventilated and dry place, away from heat sources; place the appliance carefully and do not place heavy objects on it.
• Keep the appliance out of the reach of children, so that they do not play with it.

Power failure or cooling system fault

• If the appliance stops operating for a prolonged period of time, the food may defrost.
• Try to open the appliance door as little as possible, so that you can keep food in good condition for hours, even in summer.

• If you know that a power cut is going to occur in advance:

• Select the highest temperature one hour in advance, so that the food is completely frozen. Do not introduce new food. Adjust the temperature back to the original setting when power is restored.

• You can also put ice in an airtight container and place it at the top part of the appliance.

Note: It is best not to interrupt the operation of the appliance; this could affect its lifespan.

Defrosting

- After some time, a thin layer of frost may form on the surface of the inner wall of the appliance (or on the evaporator), which may affect the performance if it is thicker than 5 mm. It is recommended to remove this frost. - The freezer is designed for year-round use with minimal cleaning and maintenance. We recommend that you do the following each time you clean it for odour-free and efficient operation:

1.- Disconnect the freezer
2.- Remove the food and cover it properly to prevent it from melting.
Clean the drainpipe (Figure 9), using soft materials to avoid damaging the liner. Prepare containers for thawing water. Pay attention to clean the drain pan of the compressor compartment to avoid spillage on the floor (depending on the freezer model).

You can take advantage of the ambient temperature for natural defrosting or use a specific ice scraper (plastic or wood) to remove the frost.

5.- Remove the drain plug inside the freezer and the drain plug outside (depending on the freezer model). The thawed water will drain. Check the tray from time to time to prevent overflow. Replace the drain plugs at the end of defrosting.

6.-You may also use an adequate amount of hot (not boiling) water to accelerate thawing and blot excess water with a dry towel after thawing.

7.- After thawing and drying, return the food to the freezer and turn it on.

Safety check after maintenance

Check that the power cable is not broken or damaged.

Check that the plug is correctly inserted into the socket.

Check that the plug does not overheat.

ATTENTION: If the power cord and plug are damaged or dusty, electric shock and fire may occur. If there is any malfunction, disconnect the power cable and contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING

For the following minor malfunctions, please try to solve the problem yourself before contacting the official Cecotec Technical Support Service.

Fault Possible	causes Possible solutions
The appliance does not work.	The appliance is not plugged into the mains.	Unplug the cable and plug it in again.
	Circuit breakers or fuses are damaged.There is no electricity.	Check the electrical panel of your electrical installation.
The appliance makes noise.	The appliance is not stable.	Place the freezer on a level surface.
	The appliance touches the wall.	Move the appliance away from the wall.
The appliance has low cooling efficiency.	The food inside is hot or there is too much food.	Introduce food in the appliance when it is at room temperature.
	You open the door too often.	Keep the door closed.
	Something is caught in the door gasket.	Remove the object obstructing the door gasket.
	The appliance receives direct sunlight or is close to a heat source.	Remove the appliance from the heat source.
	The place where the appliance is placed is not well ventilated.	Ventilate the room.
	The selected temperature is too high.	Adjust the temperature.

ENGLISH

The appliance gives off unpleasant odours.	There is spoiled food inside.	Dispose of food which is spoiled. Clean the appliance.
	There is food with a strong odour inside.	Pack the strong-smelling foods.
Compressor runs for a long time.	High ambient temperature results in long operating time.	This is normal.
	Too many foods are introduced at the same time.	Do not put in too much food at the same time.
	Food is introduced while still hot.	Wait for the food to cool before putting it in the freezer.
	The door is opened too often.	Open the door only when it is necessary.
	The layer of frost on the inside is too thick.	Needs defrosting.
The door does not close properly.	Some object jams the door.	There is too much food, or it is not placed in the correct way.
	There is too much food in storage.	Do not overload the refrigerator with food.
	The bolt gasket is deformed.	Heat the gasket with an electric dryer or hot water, then let it cool and replace it. If the problem persists, contact Cecotec's Official Technical Support Service
The external part is hot.	When the appliance is in operation, heat is dissipated to the outside through the metal tubes inside the freezer.	It is normal for the outside temperature to be higher.
	Higher ambient temperature in summer causes an increase in the outside temperature.	Increase the heat dissipation space or place the unit in a cooler, more ventilated location.
Condensation forms on the outside.	Condensation may form when the humidity in the room is high.	This is normal. Wipe off condensation with a dry cloth.
It is difficult to open the door.	The difference in air pressure between the inside and outside of the freezer can sometimes make it difficult to open the door.	Wait a few moments and then try to open the door slowly.

Note: If none of these situations match your problem, do not attempt to disassemble or repair the appliance yourself. All repairs must be carried out by qualified personnel. Contact Cecotec's Official Technical Support Service. Repairs must be carried out by an authorised technician and only original spare parts must be used.

When the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains, remove all food and clean it. Leave the door ajar to avoid unpleasant odours.

These instructions are intended for qualified technicians, do not attempt to carry them out if you do not have the necessary training and knowledge, as any damage caused by an incorrect repair will void the warranty.

Unauthorised self-maintenance or maintenance will affect the safe use of the product and the application of the warranty policy.

NOTE:

- Certain noises may be heard during normal use of the freezer, which do not affect its correct operation.

- Noises that can be easily avoided:

Noise caused by an uneven appliance: adjust the position with the adjustable, folding front feet (not available on all freezer models). In any case, use a flat and stable base to locate the freezer.
Noise caused by rubbing against an adjoining piece of furniture or cabinet: move the freezer away.

ENGLISH

- The noises heard during normal use are mainly due to the operation of the compressor (ignition) and the refrigeration system (thermal expansion and contraction caused by the flow of refrigerant).
