INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
These instructions describe the appliance and the correct and safe way to use it.
The instructions were prepared for various types/models of freezers, therefore
you may find in it descriptions of some accessories and functions that your
appliance does not have.
Tips for Saving Energy
Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is hot and
humid. Once you open the door, try to close it as soon as possible.
Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated
(adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
Set the thermostat from higher to lower settings as soon as possible
(depending on how loaded the appliance is, the ambient temperature,
etc.).
The condenser coils on the rear of the freezer should be cleaned and kept
free of an accumulation of dust.
Ice and frost layers increase energy consumption, so defrost and clean
the freezer when the layer reaches a thickness of 1/8”.
Always keep in mind the instructions stated in this section and in
Placement and Installation, otherwise energy consumption will be
substantially higher.
Controls
The appliance is controlled with the thermostat knob, located in the right upper
corner inside the appliance.
Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position towards 7 to increase the
amount of cooling, and backwards from 7 to decrease the cooling.
Temperature Selection
When the freezer operates automatically, the interior temperature is
controlled by the thermostat. Higher settings on the knob mean colder
temperatures inside the appliance. Only use higher thermostat settings
when required or recommended. The most suitable thermostat position is
in the middle, between the maximum and minimum settings.
Changes in the ambient temperature affect the temperature in the interior
of the appliance. Adjust the setting on the thermostat knob if needed.
