To Start the Appliance

installation.
2. Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains
supply.
3. Slide the 'fast freeze' switch to the right (yellow
indicator light will illuminate) and leave to run for 4
hours to allow the correct temperature to be
reached before placing food inside.

temperature and the red indicator light has gone
out slide the 'fast freeze' switch back to the left.
Thermostat Control
The temperature within the freezer is controlled by the
thermostat control knob situated on the control panel.
0 = Off
Turning the thermostat control knob clockwise makes
the temperature progressively colder.
Freezing Fresh Food
It is important that fresh food placed in the freezer is
frozen quickly and that the food already in the freezer
is heated as little as possible.

If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen:
1. Slide the fast freeze switch (d) to the right 6-24
hours before placing the fresh food in the freezer,
the yellow light will illuminate. The compressor will
now run continuously, to ensure that the fresh food
is frozen as quickly as possible.

leave the 'fast freeze' switch on for a further 24
hours.
