Important
•Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive
acids or alkalis in the appliance.
•This is a household appliance, which is produced in accordance
with the national standard. It is intended for food storage only,
not for storage of blood, medicine and biological products.
•To prevent risk of fire, keep the appliance away from petrol or any
other inflammables.
•To prevent risk of electromagnetic interference or other
accidents, do not place a microwave oven on top of the
refrigerator or use any electric appliance inside the freezer.
•Do not allow children to play with or near the appliance.
•The internal surface of freezer compartment is very cold when
the appliance is running. Do not touch the surface especially
when hands are wet.
•Do not splash water onto the appliance. Keep it away from
places of high humidity that may have adverse effect on the
electric insulation performance.
•This appliance is designed to be used in ambient temperatures
between 10 and 32˚C. Use outside of this range may cause the
appliance to fail.
Before first use
You must allow the freezer to settle for at least twenty four hours
prior to switching the power on.
It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior
to first use, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and warm water
and then thoroughly drying the interior.

6
The freezer may have an odour to it at first use. This will disappear
as the appliance cools.
Please note:
The appliance will start on temperature setting 3 and work
continuously until it comes down to the correct temperature.
If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes
before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary damage to the
compressor.
Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive
acids or alkalis in the appliance.
This freezer cools your food by making the inside back of the cavity
cold. It is normal for frost to build up on this surface; it then
dissipates and drains through a small drain at the bottom, where it
evaporates harmlessly. The presence of some frosting is not a
malfunction of the freezer.
Freezer use
•The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
• Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully
before putting them into the freezer.
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of
frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be
stored for more than three months after the purchase date.
• Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This
reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food
after thawing.
• Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping
sticking together, ensure it is dry.

7
• Label the food before freezing with information including type of
food and dates of storage and expiry.
• Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been
completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is required
to prevent wastage.
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer
compartment as they could explode.
• Check the rating plate to confirm the maximum amount of fresh
food that can be frozen within a 24 hour period.
Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.

8
The 6th setting on the control panel,
represented by the snowflake (Fig. 2),
is a super freeze function. This should
be used when freezing large quantities
of food all at once. Activate this
function 2 or 3 hours before
introducing the food and do not leave
it to run for more than necessary.
Leaving it to run for longer will place
unnecessary strain on the cooling
system. The function will automatically
deactivate after approximately 24
hours.

Storage
The freezer is for short-mid term food storage. Although low
temperatures can be maintained, extended periods of food storage
is not recommended.
As the cold air circulates within the freezer, the temperature can
vary between the different sections. As such, foods should be
stored in different sections according to type and storage term.
The bottom sections are the coldest parts of the
freezer.
The top two sections have raisable
flaps that stay open for ease of loading
and unloading. The remaining 5
sections are drawers.

Control panel
A. Freezer temperature adjustment sensor
This button is used to adjust the temperature within the freezer.
Press this sensor once to activate adjustment, and then as many
times as necessary until the desired level is selected. The settings
range from 1 to super freeze (snowflake) with 1 being the warmest
and super freeze being the coldest.
Please note: Where possible, avoid having the temperature setting
on 5 or super freeze (snowflake) all of the time. This well help to
alleviate strain on the compressor and system.
B. Freezer temperature setting display
This display will illuminate the current temperature setting. Adjusting
the temperature will cycle through this display.
Please note: You do not use numbers 1 to 5 or the snowflake to
change the temperature. Instead, use the freezer temperature
adjustment sensor (A).
C. Power button
Use this sensor to switch the appliance on and off (standby mode).
