TRANSPORTATION INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance should be transported only in a vertical upright position. The packing as supplied
must be intact during transportation. If during the course of transport the product has been
transported horizontally, it must only be laid on its left hand side (when facing the door front) and it
must not be operated for at least 4 hours to allow the system to settle after the appliance is brought
back to upright position.
1. Failure to comply with the above instructions could result in damage occurring to the
appliance. The manufacturer will not be held responsible if these instructions are disregarded.
2. The appliance must be protected against rain, moisture and other atmospheric influences.

11
1. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. If possible avoid placing the appliance near cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight as this will
cause the compressor to run for long periods. If installed next to a source of heat or
refrigerator, maintain the following minimum side clearances:
From Cookers 4" (100 mm)
From Radiators 12" (300 mm)
From Fridges 4" (100 mm)
2. Make sure that sufficient room is provided around the appliance to ensure free air circulation.
Ideally, A space of no less than 10cm must be left around the freezer, and ensure you allow
gaps as shown in the below diagram.
3. The appliance should be located on a smooth surface.
4. It is forbidden to use the refrigerator outdoors.
5. Protection from moisture. Do not locate the freezer in moist space to avoid the metal parts
rusty. And do not spray water to the freezer, otherwise it will weaken the insulation and
causes current leakage.
6. Refer to "Cleaning and Care" section to prepare your appliance for use.
7. If the freezer is installed in unheated areas, garages etc., in cold weather condensation may
form on the outer surfaces. This is quite normal and is not a fault. Remove the condensation
by wiping with a dry cloth.
STARTING TO USE
Before you starting to use the freezer, please check that:
1. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear.
2. Clean the interior as recommended under "TAKE CARE" section.

after 2s.; enter to modify status without any operation after 5s, automatically locked.
4. Set temperature range -24°C ~ -16°C.

12
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the
refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, wheter the compressor is running or
not which is quite normal.
6. If you going to store already frozen food open the freezer lid and check that the freezer
has reached correct temperature. Then you can put in your already frozen food (see
“Storing Frozen Food”).

Storing Frozen Food
Prepackaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food
manufacturer’s instructions for a freezer compartment.
To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is
maintained the following should be remembered:
1．Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
2．Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best Before” dates on the packaging.
DO
DON’T
Defrost food from the freezer thoroughly in a
fridge or in a microwave oven following
defrosting and cooking instructions.
Use pointed sharp edged objects such as
knives, forks to remove the ice.
Ensure that chest freezer lid is completely closed
after each use.
Put hot food in the freezer. Let it cool down
first.
Defrost frozen meat completely before cooking.
Put liquid-filled bottles or sealed cans
containing carbonated liquids into the freezer
as they may burst.
Check contents of the freezer at regular intervals.
Remove items from the freezer with wet hands.
Clean and defrost your freezer regularly.
Freeze fizzy drinks.
Store small items in the basket provided.
Shut the lid with force. You will damage the
appliance.
Prepare fresh food for freezing in small portions
to ensure rapid freezing.
Store poisonous or dangerous substances in the
freezer.
Remove ice cream from the freezer 10-20
minutes before serving.
Consume ice-cream and water ices direct from
freezer. It may cause “freezer burns” on lips.
Wrap frozen food when you buy it and put it into
the freezer shortly.
Try to keep frozen food which has thawed, it
should be eaten within 24 hours or cooked and
refrozen.
Keep food for as short a time as possible and
adhere to “Best Before”, “Use By” dates.
Exceed the maximum freezing capacity (5 kg in
any 24 hours) when freezing fresh food.

14
Wrap all foods in aluminum foil or freezer quality
plastic bags and make sure any air is excluded.
Store commercially frozen food in accordance
with the instructions given on the packets that
you buy.
Always choose high quality fresh food and be
sure it is thoroughly clean before you freeze it.
For more about storing, download the App and visit “Tips & Hints”.
Freezing Fresh Food
Place fresh food to be frozen near the side walls to ensure fast freezing and away from already
frozen food, if possible.
Freezing capacity of your appliance in a 24 hours period is 5 kg (10lb).
Never exceed this maximum capacity. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The
quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the center as quickly as
possible.
Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.
ENERGY SAVING
For better energy saving we suggest:
Installing the appliance away from heat sources and not exposed to direct sunlight and
in a well-ventilated room.
Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the internal temperature
and therefore causing continuous functionalizing of the compressor.
Do not excessively stuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation.
Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to facilitate the transfer of cold.
In case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the refrigerator door
closed.
Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible.
Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures too cold.
Remove dust present on the rear of the appliance.
TAKE CARE
Defrosting
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has formed.
Alternatively you may switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. Extract
the water conduit and put in a water container.
6 hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat knob at “MAX” position to make sure the
food is at the lowest temperature when you get it out. All food should be wrapped in several layers
of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder). Remove the freezer basket. Leave the
lid open. Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the
defrosting.
When defrosting has finished flow out defrost water which collects at the bottom of the freezer as
the below diagram and dry the interior thoroughly. Switch on the Fast Freeze and leave it on for

15
about three hours.
1. There is a water conduit at the bottom of the freezer, when defrosting, extract the rubber
cover, defrosted water will drip into the hole and flow out. (NOTES: Please keep the rubber
cover well during the defrosting and put it back after defrosting is done).
2. Extract the water conduit by 20-25mm until the water hole can be seen.
3. Twist the water conduit until the arrow points downward.
4. After defrosting is done, make sure there is no more water coming out before out the water
conduit in place and make the arrow point upward.
Cleaning and Care
We recommend that you switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug
before cleaning.
Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for
cleaning.
Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of the freezer and wipe it dry.
Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of
water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.
Excess deposit of ice should be removed on a regular basis using a plastic ice scraper available from
your local store. Large accumulation of ice will impair the performance of the freezer.
If the freezer is not going to be used for a long period of time switch it off, remove all food, clean it
and leave the lid ajar.
Check lid seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
If the appliance does not operate when switched on, check.
The product is designed and built for domestic household use only.
The plug is inserted properly in the socket and that the power supply is on. (To check the
power supply to the socket, plug in another appliance).
The fuse has blown/circuit breaker has tripped/main distribution switch has been turned
off.
The temperature control has been set correctly.
If the provided plug has been replaced, make sure the new plug is properly connected. If
the appliance is still not operating after the above checks, please contact Customer
Service.
