Operation
Control Panel
Power indicator light
Run indicator light
Thermostat
Turn On
1. Close the lid of the appliance.
2. Connect the appliance to a mains power supply.
The POWER indicator light starts to illuminate.
3. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature
to turn the appliance on. The thermostat is
graded from 1(-12°C) to 7(-24°C).
Note: Avoid turning on and off too
frequently. After turned off, wait an
interval of 5 minutes before turning
it on again.
Storing Food
To get the best results from your appliance, follow
these instructions:
• Let hot food cool to room temperature before
placing in the appliance. Overloading the
appliance will force the compressor to run longer.
Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or
may even spoil.
• Wrap or cover food where possible. Ensure to
wipe containers dry before placing them in the
appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up
inside the appliance.
• Appliance storage compartment should not be
lined with aluminium foil, wax paper or paper
towelling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation
thus make the appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce lid openings
and extended searches. Remove as many items
as possible at one time and close the lid as soon
as possible.
To avoid contamination of food, please respect the
following instructions:
• Opening the lid for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
• If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for
long periods, switch it off. Then defrost and
clean it thoroughly. Let it dry well and leave the
lid open to prevent mould developing within the
appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact
with food and accessible drainage systems.
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in
the refrigerator, so that they are not in contact
with or drip onto other food.
• Note: Please store different food according
to the compartments or targeted storage
temperature of your purchased items.

Cleaning, Care & Maintenance
• Always switch off and disconnect the power supply before cleaning.
• Clean the interior of the appliance as often as possible.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. These can leave harmful residues.
• Clean the lid seal with warm water only.
• Always wipe dry after cleaning.
Note: Condensation will form in refrigeration with frequent opening of the lid and on hot humid days,
please ensure condensation is allowed to drain properly or is wiped dry.
Manual defrost
Nisbets Essentials recommend defrosting the appliance when any frost build up inside the freezer reaches
5mm thick.
1. Turn the freezer off and disconnect it from the power supply.
2. Remove food and shelving basket.
3. Put a water container underneath the drain hole at the left lower part of the front. Then unscrew the 2
drain hole covers (one inside the compartment; the other on the front housing).
4. Let the inside frost melt naturally. Wipe off any residue water.
5. When defrost done, put back the drain hole covers.
