Before starting to use your freezer, you should pay attention to the following points:
•The operating voltage for your freezer is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
The plug must be accessible after installation.
Your freezer may have an odour when it is operated for the first time. This is normal and the odour
will fade when your freezer starts to cool.
•Before connecting your fridge freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage and
connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
•Insert the plug into a socket with an efficient ground connection. If the socket has no ground
contact or the plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualified electrician for
assistance.
•The appliance must be connected with a properly installed fused socket. The power supply (AC) and
voltage at the operating point must match with the details on the name plate of the appliance (the
name plate is located on the inside left of the appliance).
We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.
•Place your freezer where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
•Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, gas ovens and heater cores, and at least
5 cm away from electrical ovens.
•Your freezer should never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.
•When your freezer is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at least 2 cm between them to
prevent humidity forming on the outer surface.
•Do not place heavy items on the appliance.
•Do not place anything on your freezer, and install your freezer in a suitable place so that at least 15
cm of free space is available above it.
•Use the adjustable front legs to make sure your appliance is level and stable. You can adjust the legs
by turning them in either direction. This should be done before placing food in the freezer.
•Before using your freezer, wipe all parts with a solution of warm water and a teaspoon of sodium
bicarbonate, then rinse with clean water and dry. Place all parts in the freezer after cleaning.
•Install the plastic distance guide (the part with black vanes at the rear) by turning it 90° (as shown in
the figure) to prevent the condenser from touching the wall.
•The freezer should be placed against a wall with a free space not exceeding 75 mm.
•This appliance is designed to work in difficult climate conditions (up to 43 °C or 110° F) and is
powered with ‘Freezer Shield’ technology which ensures that the frozen food in the freezer will not
defrost even if the ambient temperature falls as low as -15 °C. So you may then install your
appliance in an unheated room without having to worry about frozen food in the freezer being
spoilt. When the ambient temperature returns to normal, you may continue using the appliance as
usual.
VI. INSTALLATION

www.heinner.com
8
Before using your freezer
•When using your freezer for the first time, or after transportation, keep it in an upright position
for at least 3 hours before plugging into the mains. This allows efficient operation and prevents
damage to the compressor.
•Your freezer may have a smell when it is operated for the first time. This is normal and the
smell will fade away when your freezer starts to cool.
Information on No-Frost Technology
No-frost freezers differ from other static freezers in their operating principle.
In normal freezers, the humidity entering the freezer due to opening the door and the humidity
inherent in the food causes freezing in the freezer compartment. To defrost the frost and ice in the
freezer compartment, you are periodically required to turn off the freezer, place the food that
needs to be kept frozen in a separately cooled container and remove the ice gathered in the freezer
compartment.
The situation is completely different in no-frost freezers. Dry and cold air is blown into the
freezer compartment homogeneously and evenly from several points via a blower fan. Cold air
dispersed homogeneously and evenly between the shelves cools all of your food equally and
uniformly, thus preventing humidity and freezing.
Therefore your no-frost freezer allows you ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity and stylish
appearance.

VIII. STORING THE FOOD
For normal operating conditions, set the temperature of the freezer compartment to -18 or -20°C.
•The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes.
•Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and other food should be frozen in
plastic folios or bags. For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the
packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil
polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
•Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
•Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be consumed in one sitting.
•Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after defrosting.
•Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on food packaging when storing frozen food.
If no information is provided food, should not be stored for more than 3 months from the
date of purchase.
•When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been stored under appropriate
conditions and that the packaging is not damaged.
•Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and placed in the freezer as
soon as possible.
•Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of humidity and abnormal
swelling. It is probable that it has been stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated.
•The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food, and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed
on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
•If the freezer door has been left open for a long time or not closed properly, frost will form
and can prevent efficient air circulation. To resolve this, unplug the freezer and wait for it to
defrost. Clean the freezer once it has fully defrosted.
•The freezer volume stated on the label is the volume without baskets, covers, and so on.
•Do not refreeze thawed food. It may pose a danger to your health and cause problems such
as food poisoning.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing it, you will find that it will
not open easily. This is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will open easily.
If you would use maximum freezing capacity of your freezer:
•While freezing fresh foods, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24
hours is indicated on the appliance label.
•For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, activate Super Freeze
(SF) mode 24 hours before placing fresh food into the freezer.
•After placing fresh food into the freezer, 24 hours is generally sufficient for freezing. ”Super
Freeze” mode will be deactivated automatically in 2-3 days to save energy.

www.heinner.com
14
If you would freeze a small amount (up to 3 kg) in your freezer:
•Place your food without touching already frozen food and activate “Fast Freezing” mode. You
can put your food next to other frozen food after it is completely frozen (after minimum 24
hours).
•Do not re-freeze frozen food after it has thawed. This may cause health issues, such as food
poisoning.
•Allow hot food to completely cool down before placing it in the freezer.
•When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that
the packing is intact.
•Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to be
frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater freezing power. Fast freezing
shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment.
•To use the maximum capacity of the freezer compartment, use the glass shelves for the upper
and middle section, and use the lower basket for the bottom section.

Normal Noises
Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:
•During automatic defrosting.
•When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.
Compressor noise: Normal motor noise. This noise means that the compressor operates normally.
Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is activated.
Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the
system.
Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container during
defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting.
Air Blow Noise: Normal fan noise. This noise can be heard in No-Frost freezer during normal
operation of the system due to the circulation of air.
