[. . . ] ARCTIS Gefrierschrank Freezer Frysskåp Pakastekaapi Gebrauchsanweisung Operating instructions Bruksanvisning Käyttöohje PERFEKT IN FORM UND FUNKTION Dear customer, Before placing your new refrigerator/freezer into operation please read these operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance. Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance. [. . . ] Only when the red light (3) has gone out should you reset the fast-freeze switch (1). The yellow light (2) goes out and the audible warning mode is activated again. The temperature regulator (6) can be used to set the required storage temperature, -18°C or colder. Wait until the freezer compartment has reached a temperature of ­18°C, or the red warning light has gone out, before storing frozen food. Important: Regularly check on the red temperature pilot light (3) and the thermometer that the required storage temperature is being maintained. 32 Switching off the appliance To switch off the appliance, turn the thermostat control knob to position "0" and press the ON/OFF switch. If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period: 1. Remove all deep-frozen packages as well as ice-trays. Switch off the appliance by turning the temperature regulator to position "0" or pressing the ON/OFF switch. Remove the mains plug or switch off or disconnect from the electricity supply. Defrost freezer and clean thoroughly (see sections: "Defrosting" and "Cleaning and Care"). Leave the door open to avoid the build up of odours. Freezing and storing frozen food You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself. · The temperature in the freezer compartment must be ­18°C or colder before freezing food. · Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be frozen within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food several days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of that on the rating plate. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. · Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cause increased ice formation and increase the power consumption. · Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufacturer. · Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time. The yellow light To utilise the maximum rated freezing capacity, switch on the fast freeze switch 24 hours before freezing is due to start (the yellow light illuminates). For smaller amounts the fast freeze switch should be switched on 4 - 6 hours in advance. [. . . ] For this reason always provide the following appliance information: · Model Name · Model Number (PNC) · Serial Number (S-No. ) This information can be found on the serial plate in the interior at the left of the appliance.
