4. Installation Instructions
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)
1. 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.
Note : Picture is for illustration only, can vary from actual product and conditions.
2. The appliance should be located on a smooth surface.
3. It is forbidden to use the refrigerator outdoors.
4. 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.
5. Refer to "Cleaning and Care" section to prepare your appliance for use.
6. If the freezer is installed in unheated areas, garages etc. condensation may form on the outer
surfaces in cold weather. This is quite normal and is not a fault. Remove the condensation by wiping
with a dry cloth.
5

5. Starting
Before you start 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 "CLEANING AND CARE"
3. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply, then the Red light is On.
Avoid accidental disconnection by taping over the switch. Green light will glow and the compressor
will start running (see Freezer Operation page 6).
4. 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, whether the compressor is running or not which is
quite normal.
5. If you going to store already frozen food open the freezer lid and check that the freezer has
reached the correct temperature. Then you can put in your already frozen food.
(See Storing Frozen Food page 7).
6. Do not load the appliance immediately after it is Switched ON. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate
thermometer (see Freezer Operation page 6).
Important Notes:
• If there is a power failure do not open the lid. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts
for less than 20 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and eaten
immediately or cooked and then refrozen.
• If you find that the lid of the deep freezer is difficult to open just after you have closed it, don’t
worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalize and allow the lid to be opened
normally after a few minutes.
6. Freezer Operation
Note : Picture is for illustration only, can vary from actual product
6

6.1 Temperature adjustment
The temperature of the freezer is adjusted by means of the knob assembled on the thermostat.
“1,2,3,4,5” do not represent a specific temperature. The smaller the No. the higher the temperature,
whereas. So, position “5” is being the lowest temperature.
Figures mean:
“ OFF” ：Forced Shutdown Point
1—5 ：Frozen Interval （from -12 ℃ to -30 ℃）
The achieved temperatures can vary according to the conditions of use of the appliance, such as: place
of the appliance, ambient temperature, and frequency of lid opening, extent of filling with food of the
freezer. The position of the thermostat knob will change according to these factors. Normally, for an
ambient temperature of approx. 25℃, the thermostat should be adjusted to the mild position.
We recommended that you check the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the Freezer is
kept to the desired temperature. Remember you must take your reading very quickly since the
thermometer temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.
Please remember each time the lid is opened cold air escapes and the internal temperature rises.
Therefore never leave the lid open and ensure it is closed: immediately after Food is put in or removed.
6.2 Indicator lights
The indicator light set is placed on the front side of the freezer for easy visibility.
Indicator lights mean the following:
- Red LED – shows that the appliance is supplied with electric energy.
- Green LED – shows that the compressor is working.
6.3 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.
7

6.4 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 as below:
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.
7. 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.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for 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 about three
hours.
8

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.
Important Notes:
• Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the frost.
• Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting.
8. Cleaning and Care
