Freezer controls
Starting your appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Turn the thermostat knob
➁ ➁
clockwise after the
position «O». The pilot light
➀ ➀
will light up . , indicating
that the appliance is powered. The warning light
➄ ➄
will blink indicating that the temperature inside the
appliance is too high.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position «O».
Temperature control
The temperature inside the freezer is regulated by a
thermostat control knob
➁ ➁
with 6 temperature
positions and one «OFF» (O) position.
Position 1 = minimum cold
Position 6 = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat control knob to the required
position.
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:
• Room temperature
• How often the door is opened
• How much food is stored
• Position of the appliance
In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
To obtain a lower temperature, turn the thermostat
control
knob to the higher numbers; to obtain a
higher temperature turn the control knob to the lower
numbers.
When altering the temperature setting, allow 24
hours for the temperature to
stabilise before making
further changes.
For easier turning of this control, use a small coin.
Freezing fresh food

fresh food.

➃ ➃
24 hours before you want to freeze your
fresh food, the yellow light

when food is placed in the compartment for freezing,
this light flashes until the temperature has reached
the level required for correct storage.
