Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate. The connection to the mains supply and earthing have to be made according to current standards and regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance up to -6 to +6 %. Your appliance is compliant with European Directives as well as their modifications. Adjusting the height of the appliance The appliance is equipped with four adjustable legs, so that the height may be adjusted from 82 to 90 cm.

Description of the Appliance Freezing Compartment (1) is used for freezing fresh foods. Control Panel (3) See Operation Controls Storing Basket (2) is used for storing packages of frozen foods. Instructions for Use 11 Operation Control The freezer is controlled with switches and thermostat button, incorporated in the bottom section of the appliance. Alarm off button and the red signal lamp (3) The sound of the alarm is switched off by pressing the Alarm Off button. The alarm goes off because of high temperature inside the freezer (red signal lamp is on), or because of the excessive dust collected at the condenser (red signal lamp is off). Consult the Section Troubleshooting Guide Control panel Temperature Selection 1 ON/OFF switch (green signal lamp) 2 Continued operation button (yellow signal lamp) 3 Alarm off button (red signal lamp) When the freezer operates automatically, the interior temperature is controlled by the thermostat. The most suitable thermostat position is in the middle between max (7) and min (1). We recommend setting the thermostat on positions towards max (7) only in case you want to accelerate cooling, as for example before loading smaller amounts of fresh foods or when the operation mode shall correspond to the ambient temperature. Thermostat settings towards min (1) help you save energy provided that the freezer is loaded with smaller amount of frozen foods. Changes of the ambient temperature affects temperature in the interior of the appliance. Choose correct setting of the thermostat knob. ON/OFF Switch (1) The appliance is switched on - the green light is on. The appliance is switched off - the green light is off. Continued operation button (2) This switch is used to select one of the two operation modes: continuous and automatic. Continuous operation - the yellow light is on. The cooling system operates continuously. This mode is selected when you want to freeze large amounts of fresh foods and in case you want to deep freeze already frozen foods. Automatic operation - the yellow light is off. The interior temperature is controlled by the thermostat which turns the cooling system on and off. The frequency of switching the cooling system on and off depends on: - the thermostat knob position (thermostat setting), - how often you open the door; and - ambient temperature. Use Starting the empty freezer Switch the freezer on. Sound alarm is on because of inappropriate temperature. It may be switched off by pressing the alarm button . 12 Storage of frozen food Store the already frozen food in the storage compartment of the freezer. The bottom basin of the appliance is also intended for storage purposes. [. . . ] 13 Cleaning of the condenser Dust from the condenser should be vacuumed in the following manner: - push the finger through the opening in the bottom rail and release the fastener; - pull the rail towards you and remove it; Instructions for Use After cleaning return the appliance to its place, plug in the mains power cord and fill with food. Switch Off the Appliance When Not in Use If you do not intend to use the appliance for a longer period of time, disconnect the power supply, empty the appliance, defrost it and clean it. Leave the door slightly open. Trouble Shooting Guide During the service, you can come across some troubles that in most cases result from improper handling of the appliance and can easy be eliminated. The Door is Hard to Open If you want to open the door that has just or recently been closed, you may find it hard to open. The reason why this happens is, that when you open the door, warm air gets into the appliance and when it is cooling, the underpressure seals the door. After few minutes (5-10), the door can easily be opened. The Appliance Fails to Operate After Connecting to the Mains Supply · Check the voltage in the socket and see if the appliance is switched on (green signal lamp is on). Noise Sound alarm, red signal lamp is on If the temperature within the freezer is too high, it is signaled by the red signal lamp and the sound alarm, which may be switched off by pressing the alarm off button (3).
