Frequently Asked Questions - FS 4316-90 N X/2 GRAM

How do I set the temperature on my GRAM FS 4316-90 N X/2 freezer?

The operating temperature is regulated by the temperature control dial located on the control panel. Turn the dial to adjust: 1 is the warmest setting, MAX is the coldest. The normal storage temperature is -18°C. For lower temperatures, turn towards MAX. Use a thermometer to verify the temperature.

What is the SuperFreeze function and when should I use it?

SuperFreeze (or Fast Freeze) quickly freezes fresh food by setting the thermostat to MAX 24 hours before adding food. It automatically deactivates after 50 hours. Use it when freezing large quantities of fresh food to preserve quality.

How does the automatic defrost work?

Your freezer defrosts automatically. The ice melts periodically, and water evaporates. No manual defrosting is needed. However, clean the interior regularly with a baking soda solution.

Why is the freezer door hard to open after closing?

This is normal due to a pressure difference when the door is closed. After a few minutes, the pressure equalizes and the door opens easily. You may also hear a vacuum sound.

How do I clean the freezer?

Unplug the freezer before cleaning. Use lukewarm water and a damp cloth. For the interior, use a solution of one teaspoon of baking soda to one pint of water. Do not use abrasive cleaners, gasoline, or benzene. Dry thoroughly.

What should I do when using the freezer for the first time?

Clean the interior thoroughly. Plug in the freezer and let it run empty for at least 6 hours before adding food. Avoid opening the door frequently during this time. Do not unplug it during initial operation.

Why is there condensation on the side walls of the freezer?

Condensation can occur due to frequent door openings, high humidity, or leaving the door ajar. Wipe with a dry cloth and reduce how often the door is opened. If persistent, check the door seal.

Is it normal for the freezer to make noises?

Yes, operating noises such as liquid flowing, fan sounds, or compressor hum are normal. The freezer may also make a blowing sound from the cooling fan. Vibrations can be reduced by adjusting the leveling feet.

How do I reverse the door on my freezer?

Door reversal is possible. Follow the steps in the manual (order may vary). Usually, you remove the hinges, transfer them to the opposite side, and reposition the door. Use the provided plastic wedges for spacing. Consult the manual for detailed instructions.

What should I do during a power outage?

Keep the door closed to maintain temperature. The freezer may keep food frozen for several hours if not opened. After power returns, check the temperature. If the freezer was off for more than 6 hours, consume or cook frozen food immediately.

5 Using your freezer

Setting the operating temperature

The operating temperature is regulated by the temperature control.

1 = Lowest cooling setting

(Warmest setting)

MAX. = Highest cooling setting

(Coldest setting))

Please choose the setting which is consistent with the desired temperature.

The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened and the amount of foods kept inside.

Frequently opening the door causes the interior temperature to rise.

For this reason, it is recommended to close the door as soon as possible after use.

The normal storage temperature of your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F). Lower temperatures can be obtained by adjusting the thermostat control towards the position MAX.

We recommend checking the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature. Remember to read off the thermometer immediately as the temperature on the thermometer will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.

⚠ Attention

Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 hours. See the rating label.

In order to maintain the quality of the food, the freezing must take effect as quickly as possible. In this way, the freezing capacity will not be exceeded, and the temperature inside the freezer will not rise.

Attention

Always keep the already deep-frozen food separated from freshly placed food.

If you find the freezer door difficult to open just after you have closed it, don't worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalize and allow the door to open normally after a few minutes.

You will hear a vacuum sound just after closing the door. This is quite normal.

SuperFreeze

If large amounts of fresh food are going to be frozen, adjust the thermostat control to the MAX. position. 24 hours before putting the fresh food in the fast freeze compartment.

It is strongly recommended to keep the thermostat control at the MAX. position for at least 24 hours to freeze the maximum amount of fresh food stated as the freezing capacity. Take special care not to mix frozen and fresh food.

Defrosting the appliance

The appliance defrosts automatically.

How to Freeze Fresh Foods

• Foods to be frozen must be divided into portions according to a size to be consumed, and frozen in separate packages. In this way, all the food should be prevented from being re-frozen by thawing.
• In order to protect the nutritional value, the aroma and the color of the foods as much as possible, vegetables should be boiled for a short period of time before freezing. (Boiling is not necessary for foods such as cucumber, parsley.) Cooking time of the vegetables frozen in this way is shortened by 1/3 than that of the fresh vegetables.
• To extend the storage times of frozen foods, boiled vegetables must first be filtered and then hermetically packaged as in the all types of foods.
• Foods should not be placed in the freezer compartment without package.
• The packaging material of the food to be stored should be air-tight, thick and durable and should not deform with cold and humidity. Otherwise, the food that is hardened by freezing might pierce the package. Sealing the package well is also important in terms of securely storing the food.

The following packaging types are suitable for use to freeze the food:

Polyethylene bag, aluminum foil, plastic foil, vacuum bags and cold-resistant storage containers with caps.

The use of the following types of packaging is not recommended to freeze the food;

Packaging paper, parchment paper, cellophane (gelatin paper), garbage bag, used bags and shopping bags.

• Hot foods should not be placed in the freezer compartment without cooling.
• When placing unfrozen fresh foods in the freezer compartment, please note that it does not contact with frozen foods. Cool-pack (PCM) can be placed to the rack immediately below the quick freezer rack for preventing them from being getting warm.

- During the freezing time (24 hours) do not place other food to the freezer.

- Place your foods to the freezing shelves or racks by spreading them so that they will not be cramped (it is recommended that the packaging does not come into contact with each other).

- Frozen foods must be immediately consumed in a short period of time after defrosting and must never be frozen again.

- Do not block the ventilation holes by putting your frozen foods in front of the ventilation holes located on the back surface.

- We recommend you to attach a label onto the package and write the name of the foods in the package and the freezing time.

Foods suitable for freezing:

Fish and seafood, red and white meat, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbaceous spices, dairy products (such as cheese, butter and strained yoghurt), pastries, ready or cooked meals, potato dishes, souffle and desserts.

Foods not suitable for freezing:

Yoghurt, sour milk, cream, mayonnaise, leaved salad, red radish, grapes, all fruits (such as apple, pears and peaches).

- For foods to be frozen quickly and thoroughly, the following specified amounts per package should not be exceeded.

-Fruits and vegetables, 0.5-1 kg

-Meat, 1-1.5 kg

- A small amount of foods (maximum 2 kg) can also be frozen without the use of the quick freezing function.

To obtain the best result, apply the following instructions:

1. Activate the quick freezing function 24 hours before placing your fresh foods.

2. 24 hours after pressing the button, firstly place your food that you want to freeze to the third drawer from the bottom with higher freezing capacity. If you have food remained, place them in front of the second drawer from the bottom.

3. The quick freezing function will be automatically inactivated after 50 hours.

4. Do not try to freeze a large quantity of food at a time. Within 24 hours, this product can freeze the maximum food quantity specified as «Freezing Capacity ... kg/24 hours» on its type label. It is not convenient to put more unfrozen/fresh foods to the freezer compartment than the quantity specified on the label.

- You can review the Meat and Fish, Vegetables and Fruits, Dairy Products tables for placing and storing your foods in the deep-freezer.

Recommendations for Preservation of Frozen Foods

• While purchasing your frozen foods, make sure that they are frozen at appropriate temperatures and their packages are not broken.
• Put the packages on the freezer compartment as soon as possible after purchasing them.
• Make sure that the expiration date indicated on the packaging is not expired before consuming the packaged ready meals that you remove from the freezer compartment.

Defrosting

The ice in the freezer compartments is automatically thawed.

Deep Freezer Information

The EN 62552 standard requires (according to specific measurement conditions) that at least 4.5 kg of food for each 100 liter of freezer compartment volume can be frozen at a room temperature of 25^ C in 24 hours.

Defrosting the frozen foods

Depending on the food diversity and the purpose of use, a selection can be made between the following options for defrosting:

• At room temperature (it is not very suitable to defrost the food by leaving it at room temperature for a long time in terms of maintaining the food quality)
• In the refrigerator
• In the electrical oven (in models with or without fan)
  • EN In the microwave oven

CAUTION:

• Never put acidic beverages in glass bottles and cans into your freezer due to the risk of explosion.
• If there is moisture and abnormal swelling in the packaging of frozen foods, it is likely that they were previously stored in an improper storage condition and their contents deteriorated. Do not consume these foods without checking.
• Since some spices in cooked meals may change their taste when exposed to long-term storage conditions, your frozen foods should be less seasoned or the desired spices should be added to the foods after the thawing process.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

⚠️ Never use gasoline, benzene or similar substances for cleaning purposes.
⚠️ We recommend that you unplug the freezer before cleaning.

• Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.
• Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of your freezer and wipe it dry.
• Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.
• If your freezer is not going to be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cable, remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar.
• Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles.

⚠️ To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the door rack upwards from the base.

⚠️Never use cleaning agents or water that contain chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and chromium coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.

Protection of plastic surfaces

- Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your freezer in unsealed containers as they may damage the plastic surfaces of your freezer. In case of spilling or smearing oil on the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once with warm water.

7 Recommended solutions for the problems

Please review this list before calling GRAM service. It might save you time and money. This list includes frequent complaints that are not arising from defective workmanship or material usage. Some of the features described here may not exist in your product.

The freezer does not operate.

• Is the freezer properly plugged in? Insert the plug to the wall socket.• Is the fuse of the socket or the main fuse blown out? Check the fuse.

Condensation on the side wall of the freezer.

• Very cold ambient conditions. Frequently opening and closing of the door. Highly humid ambient conditions. Leaving the door ajar. Switching the thermostat control to a colder degree.• Decreasing the time the door is left open or using it less frequently.• Wipe the condensation using a dry cloth and check if it persists.

The compressor is not running

• In case of an electrical cut the freezer cannot start up right away as the compressor has to balance the refrigerant pressure in the cooling system of the freezer. The alignment of the refrigerant pressure will lead to a postponement of the start up by 6 minutes. Please contact GRAM service if the freezer does not start up at the end of this period.• The freezer is in the defrost cycle. This is normal for a full-automatically defrosting freezer. The defrostning cycle occurs periodically.• Your freezer is not plugged into the socket. Make sure that the plug fits properly into the socket.• Are the temperature adjustments made in the correct way?• The power might be cut off.

The freezer is running frequently or for a long time.

• Your new product may be wider than the previous one. This is quite normal. Large freezers operate for a longer period of time.
• The ambient room temperature may be high. This is quite normal.
• The freezer might have been plugged in recently or might have been loaded with food. Cooling down of the freezer completely may last for a couple of hours longer.
• Large amounts of hot food might have been put in the freezer recently. Hot food causes longer running of the freezer until it reaches the safe storage temperature.
• The door might have been opened frequently or left ajar for a long time. The warm air that has entered into the freezer causes the freezer to run for longer periods of time. Open the door less frequently.
• The freezer door might have been left ajar. Check if the door is tightly closed.
• The freezer is adjusted to a very low temperature. Adjust the freezer temperature to a warmer degree and wait until the temperature is achieved.
• The door seal of the freezer may be soiled, worn out, broken or not placed properly. Clean or replace the seal. A damaged or broken sea causes the freezer to run for a longer period of time in order to maintain the current temperature.

The temperature in the freezer is very high.

• The freezer temperature might have been adjusted to a very high degree. Change the temperature of the freezer until the freezer temperature reaches to a sufficient level.
• The door might have been opened frequently or left ajar for a long time; open it less frequently.
• The door might have been left ajar; close the door completely.
• A large amount of hot food might have been put in the freezer recently. Wait until the fridge reaches the desired temperature.
• The freezer might have been plugged in recently. Cooling down of the freezer completely takes time.

The operation noise increases when the freezer is running.

- The operating performance of the freezer may change due to the changes in the ambient temperature. It is normal and not a fault.

Vibrations or noise.

• The floor is not level or it is weak. The freezer rocks when moved slowly. Make sure that the floor is strong enough to carry the freezer, and that the floor is level.
• The noise may be caused by the items put onto the freezer. Items on top of the freezer should be removed.

There are noises coming from the freezer like liquid spilling or spraying.

Liquid and gas flows happen in accordance with the operating principles of your freezer. It is normal and not a fault.

There is a noise like wind blowing.

Fans are used in order to cool the freezer. It is normal and not a fault.

Condensation on the inner walls of the freezer.

Hot and humid weather increases icing and condensation. It is normal and not a fault.The door might have been left ajar; make sure that the door is closed fully.The door might have been opened frequently or left ajar for a long time; open it less frequently.

Humidity occurs on the outside of the freezer.

There might be humidity in the air; this is quite normal in humid weather. When the humidity is less, condensation will disappear.

The door is not closing.

Food packaging may prevent the door from closing. Replace the packaging that are obstructing the door.The freezer is not completely upright on the floor and rocking when slightly moved. Adjust the elevation screws.The floor is not level or strong. Make sure that the floor is level and capable to carry the freezer.
