User manual WESTINGHOUSE WCFH183BW

[. . . ] Testing has been carried out in accordance with ISO 5155 regarding the determination of freezer capacity, energy consumption and hold-overtime. Information for test institute: A plan of the positioning of test packages may be obtained directly from the manufacturer. 2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES These warnings are provided to improve safety, and should be read carefully before installing or using your freezer. IMPORTANT It is vital that these instructions are kept with the freezer for future use. If the freezer is sold or given to another user, or if you move and leave the freezer behind, you must ensure that the instructions accompany the freezer to enable the next user to use the freezer correctly and read the relevant warnings. [. . . ] Your appliance contains an environmental friendly natural gas, isobutane (R600a) as refrigerant, which is nevertheless flammable. During transportation and installation of the appliance, be sure that none of the components of the cooling circuit become damaged. If any part of the cooling circuit damaged: avoid naked flames and sources of ignition; thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is installed. IN THE INTERESTS OF THE ENVIRONMENT: When disposing of your old fridge, freezer or fridge/freezer: Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Officer to see if there are facilities in your area for collecting the gas from the appliance for recycling. This will help reduce the amount of CFC gas released into the atmosphere. Help to keep your country tidy - when disposing of an old appliance or a CFC free appliance use an authorised disposal site. 3 INSTALLATION POSITION Place the freezer horizontally on a firm surface, resting on all four plastic feet. Use a wooden block or similar object to compensate for any bumps/holes in the surface. The room should be dry and adequately ventilated. If the room temperature exceeds 32°C, or falls below freezing point, the freezer will not function as it should. Do not place the freezer close to sources of heat, radiators, chimneys, etc. , and do not place the freezer in direct sunlight. If the freezer has been handled standing on end it should be allowed to stand in normal position for about 12 hours before switching it on. Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown. Appliance Description Control Panel 1 2 3 4 temperature regulator green mains operating light fast freeze switch with amber light red temperature warning light Starting up Please clean the appliance interior and all accessories prior to initial start-up (see section: Cleaning and Care). Insert the mains plug of your chest freezer into the mains supply. The green mains operating light (2) and red temperature warning light (4) show, and the acoustic temperature warning sounds. The green mains operating light indicates operation and must continuously show. The red temperature warning light tells you that the storage temperature has not yet been attained. If you additionally operate the fast freeze switch (3), the amber pilot light in the switch (3) illuminates, and the refrigerating unit operates in continuous mode. When the fast freeze switch is pressed, the acoustic temperature warnin immediately stops. If you switch off the fast freeze switch (3) when the red temperature warning light (4) has gone out, the amber light goes out. The red temperature warning light (4) and acoustic temperature warning give an alarm if: the storage temperature has not yet been reached (starting up). the minimum storage temperature is no longer being maintained (fault). 4 INSTALLATION large quantities of fresh food have been placed inside. the chest lid has been open for too long. The red temperature warning light (4) and acoustic temperature warning give no warning: if the power supply is interrupted; if the thermostat is defective. [. . . ] A coin has to be used to turn the temperature control knob. This makes it more difficult to inadvertently adjust the temperature (child protection). Since the ambient temperature, type and quantity of stored frozen food, and frequency and duration of lid opening affect the storage temperature of -18 °C or colder, you should check the internal temperature on a thermometer. Set the temperature control knob so that the indicated temperature is-18 °C or colder. [. . . ]
