Resumen del manual
5 STARTING Final Check Before you start using the freezer check that: 1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect levelling. 2. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely. 3. Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE." 4. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply. 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, whether the compressor is running or not which is quite normal. 6. We recommend that you set the thermostat knob at 3 (three) and monitor the temperature to ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (See section Temperature Control and Adjustment). 7. Do not load the appliance immediately 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; Temperature Control and Adjustment). Important Notes : 1. If there is a power failure do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 25 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen. 2. If you find the freezer door difficult to open just after you have closed it, don't worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalise and allow the door to open normally after a few moments. 3. You will hear a suction sound just after closing the door. This is quite normal. 6 STORING FROZEN FOOD Prepacked commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer's instructions for a frozen food storage 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. 3. For hygiene reasons, always wrap food using a suitable packaging material before storing in your appliance to avoid contact with the appliance surface. TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT The operating temperature is regulated by the temperature control. 1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting) Fast Freeze = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting) Please choose the setting according to the desired temperature. The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened and the amount of food kept inside. Frequently opening the door causes the interior temperature to rise. For this reason, it is recommended to close the door again as soon as possible after use. The normal storage temperature of your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F). If the thermostat knob is turned counter clockwise from position 1. Lower temperatures can be obtained by adjusting the thermostat knob towards position Fast Freeze. We recommend checking the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature. Remember to take the reading immediately since the thermometer temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer. 7 8 FREEZING FRESH FOOD Freezing capacity of your appliance in a 24 hours period is 11 kg (24.2 lb). Never exceed this maximum capacity. If large amounts of fresh food are going to be frozen, adjust the control knob to Fast Freeze. 24 hours before putting the fresh food in the fast freeze compartment. It is strongly recommended to keep the knob at Fast Freeze position at least 24 hours to freeze maximum amount of fresh food declared as freezing capacity. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food. If the fast freeze compartment (2) is filled with fresh food, other compartments can also be used to freeze fresh food. Ice-bank (3) has been specially designed to obtain ice cubes (see making Ice Cubes). 1 1. Thermostat knob 2. Fast freeze compartment 2 3. Ice bank 4. Drawers 5. Adjustable front feets 4 6. Ice cube tray 3 4 4 4 5 6 9 Icebank and drawers are all removable. MAKING ICE CUBES Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it on the special Ice Bank. Store ice-cubes in the Ice Bank. DEFROSTING Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed. To start defrosting procedure switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a coolplace (e.g. fridge or larder). Remove all freezer baskets. Fold out the spout, place a bowl underneath the spoutto collect the water. Ensure you use a bowl large enough to contain the defrost water. Normally the volume of the bowl should be about 4 (four) litres. Leave thefreezer door open. Containers full of warm water may beplaced carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting. Do not use pointed or sharp edged objects such as knives, forks to remove the frost. Never use h...
