In addition, if the appliance is a new one with a lock, keeo the key out of the reach of small children. If your appliance is not operating properly, read the chapter entitled, "Trouble Shooting", which might help you resolve the problem, before calling an after-sales service centre. Do not attempt to repair the appliance by tampering with the internal components. [. . . ] A 15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board. If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use. How to connect an alternative plug: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: BLUE "NEUTRAL" ("N") BROWN "LIVE" ("L") GREEN AND YELLOW "EARTH" ("E") Replacing the fuse: When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers: If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug.

GB 2 A Closer Look Temperature Adjustment Knob This knob makes it possible to adjust the internal temperature of the freezer with the following settings: - o: the freezer is off; - 1: Freezer is on low; - 5: Freezer is on high; - Super: Fast freeze. By turning the knob from setting "1" to setting "5" allows you to lower the temperature. The Super setting is used when fresh foods must be frozen. Once they have been frozen, the knob must be returned to one of the normal settings (3). Warning Light When this red warning light comes on for a prolonged period of time, it means that the freezer is not functioning properly and the temperature is rising too much. (Call your Service Centre) This warning light might come on for a brief period when the door is left open for an extended period of time (when the freezer is being loaded or unloaded).

For ambient temperatures of up to 25°-27°C, the thermostat knob should be set between 1 and 2, while for temperatures up to 32°C the setting should be between 2 and 3. Follow the instructions on the packages of frozen foods scrupulously. If none are provided, do not store the food for more than 3 months from the date of purchase. When purchasing frozen foods, make sure that they have been stored at the proper temperature and that the package is properly sealed.
