Installation
Location
When selecting a position for your freezer you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16°C and 32°C. Avoid locating your freezer near a heat source, eg. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance not to perform properly. This freezer is not designed for use in a garage or outdoor installation.
Do not drape the freezer with any covering. When installing, ensure that free space is left at the sides. You may refer to the Overall Space Required in the Specification section. The freezer door can open to the right or the left, depending on what better suits the location.

- If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a qualified technician. You should only try to reverse the door yourself if you believe that you are qualified to do so.
- All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation of the door. You should rest the freezer on something solid so that it will not slip during the door change process. Do not lay the freezer flat as this may damage the coolant system. Ensure the freezer is unplugged and empty. We recommend that 2 people handle the freezer during assembly.
Reversing the Door Swing
Tools required: Phillips style screwdriver / Flat bladed screwdriver / Hexagonal spanner

To do this use the two levelling feet at the front of the freezer.
If the freezer is not level, the door and magnetic seal alignments will not be covered properly.

Cleaning Before Use
Wipe the inside of the freezer with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with warm water using a 'wrung-out' sponge or cloth. Wash the baskets in warm soapy water and dry completely before replacing in the freezer. Clean the exterior of the freezer with a damp cloth.
If you require more information refer to the CLEANING section.

• Before Plugging in YOU MUST
Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the freezer.
• Before Turning On!
Do not turn on until two hours after moving the freezer. The coolant fluid needs time to settle.
Before Using Your Freezer
Before placing any food in your freezer, turn it on and wait for 24 hours, to make sure it is working properly and to allow the freezer to fall to the correct temperature. Your freezer should not be overfilled.
Switching On Your Freezer
- Before connecting the freezer to the mains supply make sure that the thermostat control dial is set at position 0. This is located at the rear of the freezer.
- Adjust the thermostat control dial to the desired position, bear in mind that the higher the number, the lower the temperature. Position 4 is the recommended setting for the freezer when operating at normal room temperature (between 16°C and 32°C).
- The freezer may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or a particularly cold room, or if you open the freezer door often.
- To ensure that the freezer is cool enough to sufficiently chill your food wait 24 hours before filling it with food.
- If you are concerned that your freezer is not being kept cold enough and wish to check the temperature you will need a special freezer thermometer. These are available from most supermarkets and hardware shops.
- Place the thermometer in the freezer, where it can be read easily. Leave overnight, the temperature in the freezer should be -18^ C or lower.


Adjusting the Temperature
The internal temperature of your freezer is controlled by a thermostat. The recommended position is between 1 to 4 for colder working environments (i.e. during winter) and between 5 to 6 for hotter environments. Please adjusted according to the environment.
Fast Freezing
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. Setting position 7 makes your freezer operate the coldest (approximately -28°C) continuously. It helps to quickly freeze and retain more of the goodness of your food. Freezing will be completed after 24 hours. Then turn the thermostat control dial back to position 2-3 (-18°C). Never freeze large quantities of fresh food at one time.
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!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid 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. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
Shopping for Frozen Foods

- Your freezer compartment is 4-star.
- When you are buying frozen food, check 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. The maximum freezing capacity of this freezer is 4kg in 24 hours. Do not place fresh food into the freezer compartment exceeding this weight.
- 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^ .
• Take a quick look at the frozen food package and make sure it is in perfect condition.
• Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket. Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping and on the journey home as this will help to keep the food cold. - Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Specially insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These bags can keep frozen food frozen longer.
Preparations for Freezing
- Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities as it freezes faster, takes less time to defrost and enables you to control the quantity you need better.
- Leave cooked food to cool completely. Chill food in a freezer before freezing if possible.
- Consider how you will want to cook the food before freezing it.
- Don't freeze food in metal containers if you may want to microwave it straight from the freezer.
-
Use special freezer bags, freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers, and aluminium foil (heavy duty grade only). If in doubt, double wrap your food. Don't use aluminium foil for acidic foods, e.g. citrus fruits. Don't use thin cling film, glass, nor used food containers without cleaning.
-
Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You could buy a special vacuum pump which sucks excessive air out of the packaging.
- Leave a small amount of air space when freezing liquids to allow expansion.
- You can use the space in the freezer most efficiently if you freeze liquids (or solids with liquids, e.g. stew) in square blocks. This is known as "Preforming". Pour the liquid into a polythene bag which is inside a square sided container. Freeze it, and then remove it from the container and seal the bag.
- Label your frozen foods as they will look the same when in frozen state. Use special freezer tapes, labels and pens with different colours. This allows you to easily organise and to effectively use the freezer. Write the contents and date; otherwise the frozen food might exceed the storage time and this could cause food poisoning. Please refer to your food packaging for the recommended storage time.
- You may also add the weight and cooking notes, e.g. "defrost first", "cook from frozen" and keep a separate log of what is in each drawer. This will save opening the door and searching around unnecessarily.
Defrosting Frozen Food
- Take the frozen food out from the freezer compartment and uncover the frozen food. Let it defrost at room temperature. Don't forget that defrosting in a warm area encourages the growth of bacteria and low temperature cooking may not destroy dangerous bacteria.
- Drain off and throw away any liquid lost during defrosting.
- 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 defrosted.

- Many microwaves and ovens have a defrost setting. To avoid bacterial build up, only use these if you intend to cook the food immediately afterwards.

- Never refreeze anything that has been defrosted out unless you cook it again, to kill off harmful bacteria. Never re-freeze defrosted shellfish.
- Re-seal packs properly after removing items. This prevents drying or freezer-burn and a build up of frost on any remaining food.
Cleaning
Defrosting
Frost might build up in the freezer compartment after the freezer has been used for a period of time. Scrape away the frost using a plastic scraper.

Do not use a metal or sharp instrument to scrap away the frost, nor should you use any electrical appliances to aid defrosting.
We recommend that defrosting should be carried out when the frost layer builds up to 3cm (\~1.18"). Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low, follow these procedures:
- Take out the frozed food, turn the freezer off at the mains supply and leave the door open. Ideally, the frozen food should be put into another freezer or refrigerator. If this is not possible, wrap the food in several sheets of newspaper or large towels and then a thick rug or blanket to keep it cool.
- Place a shallow bowl or pan below the freezer. Scrap away the frost using the plastic scraper. Defrosting the remaining frost can be speeded up by placing a bowl of hot water inside the freezer cabinet and closing the door. As the solid frost loosens, scrap it away with the plastic scraper and remove.
- When defrosting is complete, clean your freezer's interior and exterior.

natural_image
Simple line drawing of a kitchen spatula (no text or symbols)Cleaning the Interior and the Exterior of the Freezer
- Wipe the inside of the freezer with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with warm water using a 'wrung-out' sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the baskets.
- Use a damp cloth to clean the freezer exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make sure that the door is closed to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside the freezer.
- The grille of the condenser at the back of the freezer and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
Cleaning Tips
- Condensation may appear on the outside of the freezer. This maybe due to a change in room temperature. Wipe off any moisture residue. If the problem continues, please contact a qualified technician for assistance.
Care When Handling / Moving Your Freezer
Hold the freezer around its sides or base when moving it. Under no circumstances should it be lifted by holding the edges of the top surface.
Servicing
This freezer should be serviced by an authorised engineer and only genuine spare parts should be used. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the freezer yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunction. Contact a qualified technician.
When the freezer is not in use for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains supply, empty all food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
Disposal
Old appliances still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant used in your appliance and insulation materials require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the appliance are damaged prior to disposal.
Up to date information concerning options of disposing of your old appliance and packaging from the new one can be obtained from your local council office.
When disposing of an old appliance break off any old locks or latches as a safeguard.
