Location & Air Circulation
When selecting a position for your freezer, you should make sure the table top is at and rm and the
room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16˚C and 32˚C.
Locate your freezer away from sources of heat e.g. cookers, radiators, direct sunlight as extreme
temperatures will effect how efciently your freezer works.
If you are placing your freezer in an out-building such as a garage or annex, ensure that the freezer is
placed above the damp course. Failure to do this will result in condensation forming on the freezer
cabinet and could cause the freezer to rust and fail.
Never place the freezer in a wall recess or tted cabinets or furniture as this will not allow adequate
ventilation and cause a potential re hazard. Allow 20mm of space at the sides of the freezer and 50mm
above the freezer. Never push the freezer back against the wall, leave at least a 50mm gap.
Levelling
Once the freezer is positioned in its nal location, it can be leveled using the adjustable feet at the front
of the freezer until they are rmly placed on the counter top. Correctly leveling the freezer will stop any
rocking or vibration and keep the door aligned which helps the freezer run reliably and efciently.
Providing you follow the recommended ventilation requirements you will:
• Increase the life of the freezer.
• Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of the freezer.
• Minimise the running costs.
• Minimise operating noises caused by vibration.
INSTALLATION

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your Freezer
Before placing food in the freezer, it needs to be cleaned by wiping the interior using warm water and a
soft cloth.Wipe the freezer completely dry before replacing the shelf.
Check that your power outlet is compatible with the plug supplied with the freezer.
IMPORTANT: Always allow at least 2 hours before turning on the freezer to allow the coolant uid
time to settle after the freezer is in place. Failure to do this may result in damage to the appliance and
such damage is not covered by the guarantee.
Door Fitting
The freezer door can be tted to open to either the left or the right depending on its location. The
appliance must be tilted and supported in order to carry this out. It is therefore advisable to get some
help during this procedure. Take care when tting and tightening screws.
To change the direction, please follow these instructions.
• Turn off the power.
• Remove the top hinge cover (6), hinge screws (1) and hinge (5) (right side).
• Lift the door and place on a padded surface to prevent scratching it.
• Remove the two screws (8) that hold the lower hinge (2) and mare sure to remove the
lower hinge (2)

Before placing any food in the freezer it is recommended to leave it 4 hours.This allows you to ensure
the freezer is working correctly and gives enough time to allow the temperature in the refrigerator to
drop to the correct level.
Using your Freezer
The ideal internal temperature of your freezer should be between -12˚C to -18˚C. Before turning on
the freezer, make sure that the temperature control, which is located at the back of the freezer is set
to NORMAL.Allow 4 hours before placing food in the freezer to allow the temperature to fall to the
correct level. If you wish to decrease the temperature in the freezer, turn the thermostat to the MAX
position and the internal freezer temperature will drop to -18˚C.
Your freezer must NOT be placed in a room where the temperature goes below 16˚C or above 32˚C for
prolonged periods, as the internal freezer temperature will not be maintained.
Precautions
The freezer is capable of producing very cold temperatures which may cause injury if safety precautions
are not observed.
Caution: Do not touch ice with bare hands as this could cause ice burns
• Do not attempt to freeze carbonated drinks suck as zzy pop, mineral water, champagne etc, as the
bottles may break when frozen.
• The freezer must only be used for storing edible foodstuffs.
• Frozen food that has been thawed should not be re-frozen.
Storing Food in Your Freezer
Food which has been purchased frozen should be kept in its original packaging. Maximum storage times
and expiry dates are usually given on the food packaging.
• Do not attempt to re-freeze food that has thawed or partially thawed.
• When cooking food you must ensure it has thoroughly thawed, especially when dealing with
poultry and seafood.
• Do not overload the freezer and always allow space between the packages of food. This ensures
that cold air is free to circulate, preventing the food packaging from sticking together.
• When removing ice cubes, it may help to hold the tray under running water for a few seconds in
order to loosen the ice cubes.
• When freezing hot food allow it to cool before placing it in the freezer.Always store it away from
food which is already frozen.
• This freezer can freeze up to 2kg of food for 24 hours.
To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following instructions
• Opening the door for long periods can cause a signicant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
• Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48h; ush the water system connected to a water
supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.
• Store raw meat and sh in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or
drip onto other food.
• Two-star frozen-food compartments (if they are presented in the appliance) are suitable for storing
pre-frozen food, storing or making ice-cream and making ice cubes.
• One-, two- and three -star compartments (if they are presented in the appliance) are not suitable for
the freezing of fresh food.
• If the appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry and leave the door open to
prevent mould developing within the appliance

Pre Packed Foods
Pre packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions for a 4 star frozen food compartment and should be put in the freezer as soon as possible
after purchase.Your freezer provides for long term storage which generally means up to 3 months but
the length of time can vary and it is important to follow the recommended times shown on the packets
of commercially frozen food.
Refrigerator compartments Type of food

Defrosting
After a period of time, frost will build up in the freezer. Regular defrosting will therefore be necessary
to maintain the efciency of the freezer. Defrosting should be carried out if the frost build up begins to
interfere with the food storage.The best time to defrost your freezer is when the amount stored in the
freezer is low, for example before you go shopping.To defrost the freezer follow the steps below:
1. Take out the frozen food, turn the freezer off at the mains supply and leave the door open. Ideally the
frozen food should be put into another freezer or refrigerator.To speed up the defrosting process, a
bowl of hot water can be placed inside the freezer to raise the temperature.
2. Remove the ice with an ice scrapper. Do not use pointed or sharp edged objects such as knives, forks
or screw drivers to remove the ice.
3. When all traces of ice have been removed and defrosting is completed, clean away any water and
wipe your freezer dry.
4. Clean your freezer as described below, plug in and switch the freezer back on. Allow enough time for
the temperature to fall to the correct level before putting the food back in to the freezer.

10
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Switch off the electrical supply and remove the plug from the socket before cleaning.
Interior
1. Remove all food from the freezer and cover to help keep it cool.
2. Remove the shelf from the freezer and defrost following the instructions above.Wash the shelf in
warm soapy water with a soft cloth and dry thoroughly. Never put the shelf into the freezer wet.
3. Wipe the interior of the freezer with a damp clean cloth. For extra cleaning use a solution of one
teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water.
4. Dry the interior thoroughly with a clean cloth and replace the shelf.
5. Plug in and switch back on and allow the temperature in the freezer to drop to the correct
temperature.
6. Replace the food in the freezer.
Exterior
Use a clean, damp soft cloth to wipe the exterior surface of the freezer and dry thoroughly.
WARNING: Do not use abrasive powder, household cleaner, bleach or wax polish to clean the
freezer as these can leave a smell in the freezer and can damage the exterior.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from underneath the freezer and from around the compressor
situated at the back of the freezer. Use caution not to damage the coolant system.
Door Seal
Use a clean, damp soft cloth to wipe the door seal and in between the creases of it. Take care not to
damage the seal and do not use sharp objects to clean it. Ensure that the seal is dried thoroughly before
using the freezer. Do not use detergent on the seal as it will cause damage to it.
Going Away
If you are going away and do not want to leave the freezer left on, switch off at the socket and pull
the plug from the mains. Remove any food and follow the defrosting and cleaning instructions in the
“Defrosting” and “Cleaning and Maintenance” sections.
Note: Leave the door ajar as this will prevent odours accumulating in freezer and will allow the freezer
to dry completely.
Operating Sounds of a Freezer
If you have not owned a freezer before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual noises. Most
of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
The compressor makes a buzzing or humming sound when it is running. This can be louder when the
freezer is rst switched on but should become quieter in a few months.
Gases owing through the cooling system can cause a gurgling, bubbling or whooshing sound. These
noises are normal and have become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases.
Expansion and contraction of parts inside the freezer can produce a cracking noise as they rapidly change
temperature.
