around the appliance to ensure free air
circulation.
• Put the back airing lid to the back of your
refrigerator to set the distance between the
refrigerator and the wall.
3. The appliance should be positioned on a
smooth surface. The two front feet can be
adjusted as required. To ensure that your
appliance is standing upright adjust the two
front feet by turning clockwise or counter-
clockwise, until firm contact is secured with the
floor. Correct adjustment of feet prevents
excessive vibration and noise.
4. Refer to "Cleaning and Care" section to
prepare your appliance for use.
Temperature control
and adjustment
Temperature is controlled by the thermostat
knob (Fig. 2). "Number 4" is the coldest
setting.
The normal storage temperature of your
appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F). If the
thermostat knob is turned counter clockwise
from position 1, the appliance will be switched
off and "click" sound will be heard. Lower
temperatures can be obtained by adjusting the
thermostat knob towards Position 4.
We recommend checking the temperature with
a thermometer to ensure that the storage
compartments are kept to the desired
temperature. Remember to take the reading
immediately since the thermometer temperature
will rise very rapidly after you remove it from
the freezer.
Please remember that each time the door is
opened cold air escapes and the internal
temperature rises. Therefore never leave the
door open and ensure it is closed immediately
after food is put in or removed.
Instruction Manual

Before operating

Final Check
Before you start using the freezer check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect
levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely
at the rear.
3. The interior is clean as recommended under
"CLEANING AND CARE."
4. The plug is inserted into the wall socket and
the electricity supply is switched on. Avoid
accidental disconnection by taping over the
switch.
And note that:
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within
the refrigeration system may also make some
noise, whether the compressor is running or
not. This is quite normal.
6. If you are going to freeze fresh food, you
must press the fast-freeze switch.
7. We recommend setting the thermostat knob
at 2 and monitoring the temperature to ensure
the appliance maintains desired storage
temperatures (see section "Temperature control
and adjustment").
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is
switched on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We recommend
that you check the temperature with an accurate
thermometer (see; Temperature Control and
Adjustment).
9. If you find the freezer door difficult to open
just after you have closed it, don't worry. This
is due to the pressure difference which will
equalize and allow the door to open normally
after a few minutes.
10. You will hear a vacuum sound just after
closing the door. This is quite normal.
