[. . . ] Hints, useful information Environmental information Symbol for ideas At this symbol ideas can be found according to food and its storing. The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. [. . . ] If not switched off manually, the quick freeze function will be automatically switched off 48 hours later. Temperature problem Once the temperature of the freezing compartment rises above -12 C the red alarm indicator will light up and an acoustic alarm will be heard. Possible causes of such temperature rise: door opened too frequently or left open too long large volume of hot foot stored in the freezing compartment product defect You can stop the acoustic alarm by pressing the "Acoustic alarm off switch". once the temperature of the freezing compartment reduces to a displayable value , the red alarm indicator and the acoustic alarm will automatically stop. Note: The acoustic alarm will stop: when the quick freeze function is switched on (by pressing the "Quick freeze on/off switch") The green on/off indicator will light continuously and the current temperature value will flash. The flashing of the red alarm indicator and the acoustic alarm will warn you that the internal temperature is not yet sufficient for the conservation of food. to switch off the acoustic alarm and the temperature display flashing , press button "G". Do not put any food in the freezer until the internal temperature reaches -18 C or the red alarm indicator goes out. Temperature controls Temperature can be regulated with the use of the "+" (higher) and "-" (lower) buttons. These buttons are interlinked with the temperature display. Press either "+" or "-" to switch the temperature display from CURRENT temperature (continuous lighting ) to DESIRED temperature (flashing). Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency as the temperature increases, it needs more energy, at a certain thickness it does not allow the door of the freezing compartment to open, possibly the door can be broken. It is possible to scrape off and remove smaller frost and ice with the enclosed ice scraper. The tray in figure is not a piece of accessories to the appliance! Some useful information and advice After opening and closing the door of freezer vacuum will rise inside the appliance because of the low temperature. So wait 2-3 minutes after closing the door - if you want to open it again - while inner pressure equalises. Take care of operating the freezer at a position of thermostatic control so that the inside temperature can never go beyond -18 °C, since temperature higher than this can deteriorate frozen foods. It is practical to make sure of faultless operation of the appliance daily so as to notice possible failure in time and prevent deterioration of frozen foods. After a power failure the product will restart and the quick freeze function will be switched on. If not switched off manually, the quick freeze function will be automatically switched off 5 hours later. When the quick freeze function is switched off, the yellow indicator (C) will go out. In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given about how to use the appliance to reach maximum energy saving and there is environmental information about the appliance as well. [. . . ] We draw your attention that operation of appliance goes with certain sounds (compressor- and circulating sound). The ambient temperature has an effect on the energy consumption and proper operation of the appliance. When placing, take into consideration that it is practical to operate the appliance between ambient temperature limits according to the climate class that is given in the chart below and can be found in the data label. Do not stand the appliance on a sunny place or close to a radiator or cooker. [. . . ]
