FREEZER - MODELS FZAA 1 (TK) INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION & USE GETTING STARTED: STEP 1 To ensure that your freezer runs reliably and efficiently follow these steps. STEP 2 STEP 4 STEP 6 Your freezer is now working. If after 24 hours your freezer is not operating as you want, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section. TROUBLESHOOTING Plug in and switch on. Allow the freezer to cool before placing food inside. The high temperature light will stay on until the freezer has cooled down. All food in the freezer should be covered. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE STEP 5 USEFUL ADVICE Before plugging in and switching on, leave the freezer in its final location for at least 15 minutes to allow it to settle. Level the freezer by adjusting the front feet. This will stop rocking or vibration and keep the door aligned. CONTROLS STEP 3 SAFETY & INSTALLATION Move the freezer into position, using the sides of the cabinet. Take care to avoid damaging the refrigerant circuit pipe work on the rear. Choose a location for your freezer, away from any heat sources and allow adequate ventilation - 30mm (11/4 inch) gap above. SERVICE & GUARANTEE Read the rest of these instructions to get the best from your appliance and remember to fill in your guarantee registration. Keep this Book in a safe place for quick reference. For Your Safety For your safety, read the following advice: The freezer cooling system contains a small amount of gas which is environmentally friendly but flammable. To avoid any risk :● SAFETY & INSTALLATION ● ● ● ● ● Install the freezer following the installation instructions and ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear of obstruction. Take care when installing or moving the freezer to avoid damaging the pipes on the rear. If you suspect a leak, do not switch on the freezer, but open the windows and doors to ventilate the room. Do not use any electrical devices inside the freezer, for instance for defrosting. Do not use any mechanical devices for defrosting other than any which may have been supplied with the freezer as they may cause damage. Only use this freezer for storing domestic foodstuffs. When installing your freezer :● ● Ensure that the mains cable is not trapped underneath or behind the freezer when you install or move it. Do not stack any other appliance on top of this freezer as they may damage the freezer or become unstable. When using your freezer :● ● ● Do not sit or stand on top of your freezer. Do not store poisonous, flammable or dangerous substances in your freezer. Do not use aerosol sprays for defrosting or cleaning your freezer. If you sell the freezer, pass on this booklet to the new owner. 2 Installation 30mm (11/4 inch) Location & Air Circulation Locate your freezer away from sources of heat e.g. Cookers, Radiators, Direct Sunlight as extreme temperature will affect its performance. Allow a minimum 30mm (11/4 inch) between the top of the freezer and the underside of the worktop. SAFETY & INSTALLATION Providing you follow the recommended ventilation requirements you will :● Prolong the life of the freezer. ● Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of the freezer. ● Minimise the running costs. ● Minimise operating sounds caused by vibration. Minimum space required to open door The freezer needs a space of 600mm (24 inches) in front to allow the door to open. When positioning the freezer next to a unit, a gap of 30mm (11/4 inch) can be left at the hinge side of the door to allow the easy removal of furniture. If preferred the freezer can be positioned so that a gap is not left. This will restrict how far the door can be opened but the furniture can still be removed (see diagram below). The door hinge side can be changed to make it easier to open (see ‘Door Reversal’ in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section). TOP VIEW 600mm 600mm TOP VIEW 30mm or more less than 30mm 3 Installation Levelling: Level the freezer when it is in its final location by adjusting the front feet, until firm contact is made with the floor. This will stop rocking or vibration and keep the door aligned which helps the freezer run reliably and efficiently. SAFETY & INSTALLATION Before plugging in and switching on, leave the freezer standing in its final location for at least 15 minutes to allow it to settle. Fitting a Freezer under a Work Top To minimise running costs Hotpoint recommend fitting a vent to the rear of your worktop, which is available from Hotpoint Genuine Parts & Accessories Mail Order Hotline (see KEY CONTACTS, back page). WARNING: If there is less than 30mm clearance above the freezer, a vent must be fitted to provide adequate ventilation above your freezer. 4 Installation Electrical Supply WARNING: This appliance must be earthed. The freezer must be positioned so that the plug is accessible after installation. SAFETY & INSTALLATION Fuses Your appliance comes fitted with a plug and a 13A fuse. If you need to replace the fuse, only use those rated at 13A and ASTA approved to BS1362. Changing the Plug Cut off and dispose of the supplied plug if it does not fit your socket. WARNING: To avoid a shock hazard do not insert the discarded plug into a socket anywhere else. IMPORTANT WIRES IN THE MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE : Green/Yellow - Earth Blue - Neutral Brown - Live If you change the plug, the colour of wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the colour of the markings identifying terminals in the plug. You should therefore wire it as shown above. Changing the Mains Lead This freezer is fitted with a special mains lead. If you need to replace the mains lead due to damage, one can be bought from Hotpoint Service (see KEY CONTACTS, back page). It is strongly advised that this work is carried out by a qualified electrician. CE Marking certifies that this appliance conforms to the following EEC directives : Low Voltage Equipment - 72/23/EEC & 93/68 EEC Electromagnetic Compatibility 89/336/EEC, 92/31/EEC & 93/68/EEC 5 Controls Controlling the Temperature of the Freezer Compartment The control wheel on the front of the worktop adjusts the internal freezer temperature. Your food should be maintained at -18˚C or colder for long term storage. The setting of the control wheel will depend on the location of the freezer, the room temperature and how often the door is opened. The normal set point (marked by a 3 and N on the dial) is usually suitable. If you need to adjust the temperature turn the control wheel: CONTROLS Clockwise (higher number) - Colder Anti-clockwise (lower number) - Warmer You can check the temperature of the freezer compartment by using a Fridge Freezer Thermometer available from Hotpoint Genuine Parts and Accessories Mail Order Hotline (see KEY CONTACTS back page). WARNING: Do not use a mercury filled thermometer, as breakage would cause a health hazard. Your freezer must NOT be placed in a room where the temperature goes below 2˚C or above 38˚C for prolonged periods, as the internal freezer temperature will not be maintained. 6 Controls Indicator Lights 7 CONTROLS Green Mains Light The green mains light will stay on as long as the electricity supply is not interrupted. Red High Temperature Warning Light The red temperature warning light will come on when the freezer is first switched on or when the temperature inside the compartment rises above the correct storage temperature. Check the TROUBLESHOOTING section before calling for advice. The red light may come on for a short period when opening the freezer door to load or unload food, in this case storage times will not be affected. Useful Advice USEFUL ADVICE Note: The Rating Plate, which lists the appliance Model Number and Serial Number can be found near the bottom of the left hand internal wall. Frozen food storage capacity 33kg Maximum freezing capacity in 24 hours 15kg Maximum conservation time from failure 18 hours Making the best use of your Freezer Note : Always use the handle provided to open the freezer door. To ensure that your freezer operates as efficiently as possible : ● Follow food packaging “best before/use by” instructions or your suppliers advice on a suitable maximum storage time. ● Keep foods tightly covered to retain moisture and prevent flavour/odour transference. Plastic bags, aluminium foil, plastic stretch wrap and containers with lids are ideal. ● Select chilled and frozen food last when shopping, transport in a ‘cool bag’ and place in freezer as soon as possible after arriving home. ● Avoid opening the door unnecessarily or for longer than needed. ● Allow hot or warm food to cool down in covered containers before placing in freezer, as placing hot food inside reduces efficiency. ● Prepare fresh foods for freezing in small quantities to ensure that the food freezes quickly and so that its quality does not deteriorate. ● Ensure that packets/containers of food are dry before freezing otherwise they may freeze together. 8 Useful Advice ● ● Freeze and store either fresh food or long term commercially frozen foods. Generally speaking long term storage means up to 3 months but this can vary, so always follow your supplier’s recommendations otherwise refer to the pictorial guide on the door liner (see below). ● Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after buying it. Liquid-filled bottles or sealed fizzy drinks must not be stored in freezer, as they may burst. Lollipops and water ices should not be given to children directly from the freezer the low temperature may cause ‘freezer burns’. Store ice cream towards the top front of the freezer and remove from freezer 15-30 minutes before serving. Ensure food is labelled and dated before placing in freezer. Do not allow fresh food to come into contact with food already frozen, the frozen food could start to defrost. Once thawed, food should be cooked and eaten within 24 hours or cooked and refrozen. Fully defrost your freezer when the ice is between 3-5mm thick (1/4 inch) (see CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section). ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Note : A thick layer of ice will increase the running costs of your freezer. 9 USEFUL ADVICE Storing Food in a Freezer Useful Advice Advice on Using Freezer Drawers This freezer can be used with or without the drawers. However, the bottom drawer needs to remain in position at all times (to maintain the correct storage temperature). It is generally more convenient to use the drawers but if a lot of food is to be stored the drawers can be taken out and food placed directly onto the grids. Ensure that packets/containers of food are thoroughly dry before placing onto the grids. The storage drawers can be easily removed. Pull the drawer towards you until it reaches it’s stop position. Hold securely on both sides, lift the front of the drawer to release and remove. For cleaning advice see CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section. When using the frozen food storage drawers, ensure that they are pushed fully back before closing the door. Food can be separated into different storage drawers for easy identification. USEFUL ADVICE When lifting or removing the large deep drawer it is important to hold the side handles and not the front handle. WARNING: The freezer drawers can become heavy when fully loaded with food. Care must be taken if attempting to lift or carry a full freezer drawer. It is recommended to remove the required food, rather than the whole freezer drawer. Note : It is important not to touch or move any of the freezer drawers/parts with wet hands as it may cause freezer burn or discomfort. Ice Tray When making ice, use the tray provided. Take care not to overfill with water. Uncovered food should not be placed near the ice tray as it can affect the flavour of the ice. Note : Empty, wash and refill the ice tray periodically to ensure freshness. 10 Defrosting Defrosting Regular use of your appliance causes ice to gradually build up on internal surfaces increasing the running costs of your appliance. When the ice is between 3-5mm (1/4 inch) Hotpoint recommend ‘fully defrosting your freezer’. Fully defrosting your freezer. WARNING: Switch off the electricity supply and pull out the mains plug. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Remove frozen food, wrap or cover and store in a cool place. Remove the storage drawers A defrost tube is stored in the floor of the freezer. Insert the tube into the groove situated in the floor at the front of the freezer. Place a container beneath the tube to collect the defrost water. As the frost begins to melt, use the supplied plastic scraper to remove frost. Never use sharp metal tools to remove frost as they may damage your freezer beyond repair. Sponge out excess defrost water which collects at the bottom of the freezer. NOTE : When defrosting is complete, clean the interior thoroughly, see CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section. Replace storage drawers. Replace mains plug and switch on. Unwrap food and replace. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE 6. 7. 11 Cleaning Cleaning WARNING: Switch off electrical supply and pull out mains plug before cleaning. Interior 1. Remove food and wrap or cover to keep it frozen. 2.

Troubleshooting IS THE FREEZER WORKING AS YOU WANT? Have you read through the instruction book ? If you still have a problem, before calling our service organisation see if any of the tips below help. The appliance will not work 1. Check plug is firmly positioned in the socket outlet and the power supply is switched on. 2. Check power supply with another appliance. 3. Check fuse/circuit breaker. 4. Check the door is closed properly. The appliance is making a lot of noise 1. Check that the rear pipe work is clear of the wall, skirting board and other obstacles. 2. Check that all four feet/wheels are firmly in contact with the floor and level. 3. See ‘Operating Sounds’ overleaf. TROUBLESHOOTING The freezer is too warm 1. Turn the control wheel to a higher number. See CONTROLS section. 2. If the appliance is close to a heat source, move it to another location. 3. Check that there is enough ventilation around the appliance. 4. Check door has been closed properly. The freezer is too cold 1. Turn the control wheel to a lower number. See CONTROLS section. The red warning light will not go out 1. Has the appliance just been installed? (This is normal and the light will go out when the correct temperature has been reached). 2. Has the appliance just been loaded with a large quantity of food. (The light will go out once all the food has 14 reached the correct temperature). 3. Check door has been closed properly. There has been a power failure WARNING: Do not open the freezer compartment door. If power failure lasts longer than the maximum conservation time (18 hrs), food should either be cooked and eaten with 24 hours or cooked and refrozen. The freezer door is difficult to open A well sealed freezer door can be difficult to open. This is partly due to the difference in temperature between the room and internal freezer compartment. If you have just closed the freezer door, it maybe particularly difficult to open again immediately. Wait 5 minutes for the internal and external pressure to equalise and try again. Ice builds up rapidly inside the freezer 1. Check that nothing is stopping the door from closing properly. 2. Check that foods and liquids are covered to avoid the build up of moisture inside. 3. See ‘Defrosting’ in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section for advice. The door will not close 1. Check to see if the appliance has a build up of ice which is stopping the door closing. If this is the case refer to ‘Defrosting’ in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section and defrost the appliance. If there is still a problem contact Hotpoint Service (see KEY CONTACTS back cover). Troubleshooting ● The motor (compressor) makes a buzzing or humming sound when it is running. This can be louder when it first switches on. This sound will reduce over the first few months. ● Gases flowing through the pipes can produce gurgling, bubbling, roaring or humming noises. ● The temperature control can make a clicking noise when it turns the motor on and off. ● Expansion and contraction of parts inside the freezer can produce a cracking noise as they rapidly change temperature. TROUBLESHOOTING OPERATING SOUNDS OF A FRIDGE FREEZER These are the normal types of sound that your freezer will make. 15 DONDURUCU - FZAA 1 (TK) MODELLERİ BAŞLARKEN : GÜVENLİK VE KURULUM 2. ADIM: 1.
