Your appliance is frost free, which means there is no need to manually defrost your appliance as this
will be carried out automatically.
Operation
Before use
Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the
appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of
soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or
detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Starting your appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket. The appliance
can be activated by turning the thermostat knob (2)
beyond the Ò-16¡CÓ position. When the pilot light (1)
is illuminated this shows that the appliance is on.
The freezer is switched off by turning knob (2) to
position Ç●È.
When first switching on the appliance, the
fast freeze function will automatically
switch on. It will remain on for 5 hours and
automatically switch off at the end of this
time. This function can manually be
switched off at any time by pressing the
fast freeze button (4).
Temperature control
The temperature inside the freezer is regulated by a
thermostat with 5 temperature positions and one
ÇOFFÈ (●) position.
Position Ç-16¡CÈ = minimum cold
Position Ç-24¡CÈ = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat control knob to the required
position.
4
An intermediate position (-18¡C) is usually the most
suitable, although the temperature will be affected
by:
¥ Room temperature
¥ How often the door is opened
¥ How much food is stored
¥ Position of the appliance
In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
To obtain a lower temperature, turn the thermostat
control knob to the higher numbers; to obtain a
higher temperature turn the control knob to the lower
numbers.
When altering the temperature setting, allow 24
hours for the temperature to stabilise before making
further changes.
Freezing fresh food
In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 9 kg of
fresh food.
Activate fast freeze by depressing the fast-freeze
button (4) - for more than one second - 24 hours
before you want to freeze your fresh food, the yellow
light (3) illuminates. This time can be shortened,
depending on the quantity of food to be frozen.
After the time has elapsed place the food to be
frozen in the bottom drawer of the freezer as this is
the coldest part.
You should never freeze more than 9 Kg. of fresh
food at anyone time.
Once the food is completely frozen (which could take
up to 24 hours) the fast freeze function can be ended
manually by depressing the button (4) again for more
than one second. The yellow light goes out. If the fast
freeze function is not ended manually, the appliance
electronics switch off the fast freeze function after 48
hours. The yellow light (3) goes out.
Distribute the frozen food packages in the other
compartments, so that the bottom drawer can be
used for a further freezing operation.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned
foodstuffs.
Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is
already frozen.
During the freezing process, ensure that the freezer
door remains closed.
Because freezing is faster with frost free technology,
once food is defrosted, it retains all of its original
texture, vitamins and taste.
In the event of a power failure the
appliance automatically starts again in fast
freeze mode. If the fast freeze function is
not ended manually, the appliance
electronics switch off the fast freeze
function after 5 hours. The yellow light (3)
goes out.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks
etc.), in the freezer compartment.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer, can possibly result in
a low temperature skin burn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or "frost/freezer burns".
If there is a power failure during the storage of
frozen food, do not open the door during the
whole time of the power failure. If the freezer is
fully loaded, the frozen food will not be
affected if the power cut is of short duration;
otherwise, it is recommended to consume the
food within a very short time.
Freezing calendar
The symbols on the drawers show different types of
frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for
the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the
upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is
valid depends on the quality of the foods and pretreating before freezing.
Frozen food storage
Thawing
When you first start the freezer or if the freezer has
been out of use for some time, we advise you to run
your appliance for at least two hours in the Çfast
freezeÈ mode before storing frozen food.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
we suggest that all of the internal compartments are
utilized.
Moreover, we strongly recommend that you make
sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were
adequately stored by the retailer and, furthermore,
be sure that these frozen foodstuffs are transferred
from the foodstore to the consumer in the shortest
possible time (a temperature increase of the frozen
food could shorten its storage period).
It is also advisable not to exceed the storage period
indicated by the producer of the food.
To ensure the correct functioning of the appliance, no
foodstuffs should be stored directly against the fan
blade.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in
the fridge or at room temperature depending on the
time available. Small food items may even be cooked
from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer. Any
frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has
not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and
then refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.
5
Making ice cubes
Automatic defrost
The appliance is provided with a plastic ice cube tray.
Fill the tray 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and
place it in the freezer. To turn out the ice cubes
simply give the tray a slight twist to release the
cubes.
Your appliance has been designed to be frost free.
This means there is no need to manually defrost your
appliance as this will be carried out automatically.
Never tray to free an ice tray that is frozen to the
freezer using a sharp or pointed object.
Normal operating sounds
The advanced design of todayÕs frost free appliances
mean you hear unfamiliar noises during everyday
operation. The diagrams below describe some of the
noises you may hear. These are quite normal and
mean your appliance is operating correctly.
COOLING FAN
You may hear the cooling air being
blown inside the cabinet by the fan.
The flow of liquids and gases
through the cooler may create a
bubbling or gurgling sound.
During normal operations movement
caused by temperature change may
cause sudden sharp sounds.
DRAIN PAN
Water may occasionaly
be heard running into the
drain pan.
MOTOR
Modern, high efficiency motors
operate much faster than older
models. The motor may have a high
pitched hum or pulsating sound.
6
Health and Safety Guidelines
Because of consumer demand, preservatives have been removed from many pre-prepared foods. This
together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that safe handling and
storage of food is even more important than ever.
The following tips should help you to ensure that the food in your home is in as perfect condition as
possible.
¥ Keep the freezer door closed as much as possible.
¥ Do not push food together too much, try to allow air
to circulate around each item.
¥ Cool cooked food as quickly as possible but do
NOT place in the freezer until cool. (Leave food in
a place as cool as possible in order that it can then
be placed in the refrigerator as soon as possible).
¥ Do not store food uncovered.
¥ The best way to defrost food is to put it in the
refrigerator to thaw slowly.
¥ Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and
labelled and used in date order to ensure that food
is consumed at its best.
¥ It is important that food is used before its Òbest
beforeÓ date.
¥ Always wash your hands with soapy water and dry
them with a clean towel before handling food.
¥ Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross
contamination by not using the same work surface
or knife, without washing them thoroughly in
between.
¥ The foods to be frozen must be fresh and of the
best quality.
¥ The size of each pack should be small enough to
ensure that it is used in one go. Small packs freeze
more quickly and uniformly and give better results.
¥ Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen.
Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty food,
salt reduces the storage time.
¥ Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing
bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal.
¥ Packaging which is swollen or has traces of
refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate
that the product has not been kept at a suitable
temperature and that it may have lost its original
quality. Partially thawed food must not be refrozen,
it must be consumed within 24 hours. Never
exceed the storage time indicated.
¥ Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy drink
in the freezer as they may explode. Containers with
a lid must not be filled to the brim.
¥ Do not open the door or place extra fresh food in
the freezer next to food which is already frozen as
this could cause the temperature of the frozen food
to rise and its quality and storage life to reduce.
Important
In the event of a power failure causing the temperature within your freezer to rise, do not refreeze the food without checking its condition. The following guidelines should assist you:
Ice-cream: once thawed should be discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: if soft should be cooked and used up.
Breads & Cakes: can be re-frozen without danger.
Shellfish: should be refrigerated and used up quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should be refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: can be re-frozen providing there are still ice crystals remaining within them.
Small Joints: should be cooked and can then be re-frozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: should also be cooked and re-frozen as a cooked dish.

Door Reversal
Before carrying out the operations described below,
pull out the mains plug from the wall socket.
To carry out this reversal go through the following
steps:
1. Gently lay the appliance on its back with the top
held away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3 inches) of
packing.
2. Remove the bottom door hinge (5).
3. Remove the door (4) by opening it and pulling it
gently downwards to remove it from the top hinge
pin (2).
4. Unscrew the top hinge pin (2) from the top hinge
(1) and replace it in the opposite hole on the left
hand side.
5. Unscrew the foot at the base (6) of the appliance
and refit it on the opposite side.
6. Refit the door and the bottom hinge (5) to the left
hand side.
7. Unscrew the handle (3). Refit it on the opposite
side after having pushed in the plugs with a punch.
Cover the holes left open with the plugs contained
