Temperature in the appliance interior is -18°C or lower. Before using the appliance for the first time . . . . . . . . . . . . [. . . ] Maximum environment temperature at which the appliance will still operate correctly depends on the make (class) of your appliance, as indicated on the rating plate. Class SN (subnormal) N (normal) ST (subtropical) T (tropical) Environment temperature from +10°C to +32°C from +16°C to +32°C from +16°C to +38°C from +16°C to +43°C • A damp cellar or basement is not an appropriate place for a freezer chest; the same applies for a balcony or other place where the appliance would be exposed to direct sunlight. The freezer chest must be placed on dry and sufficiently solid surface which allows it to stand stably and horizontally even when fully loaded. • The appliance should not be integrated in a cupboard or other furniture. Allow at least 2-3 centimeter of clearance around the chest for free circulation of air. • Clearance from the wall on the back is defined by the hinge. • The appliance is fitted with a condenser unit which radiates heat into the environment. The condenser unit is installed on the back wall, directly underneath the sheet metal layer of the back and front wall of the appliance. For correct operation, allow sufficient cooling of these surfaces; do not block them or line them with any objects. Electrical connections Connect the appliance to the power mains using a connection cable. The wall outlet should be fitted with a ground contact (safety socket). The specified nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the appliance rating plate. The appliance must be connected to the power mains and grounded in compliance with the effective standards and regulations. The appliance will withstand short-term deviations from the nominal voltage, but not more than +/- 6%. 340670 6 Air circulation around the appliance • The appliance should not be integrated in a cupboard or other furniture. Allow at least 2-3 centimetres of clearance around the chest for free circulation of air. • With models with a visible condenser unit installed on the back wall, make sure the clearance from the wall is at least 70 mm (see figure). 70 mm • With models with a condenser unit installed directly under the sheet metal cover on the back wall of the appliance, the clearance from the wall is defined by the hinge. 7 340670 Operating the appliance CONTROL UNIT I A CONTROL UNIT II B C D A B C D A Temperature settings knob – Switching the appliance on/off – Activating the super freeze function B Signal light on: Super freeze function is activated C Signal light on: The appliance is powered (there is voltage in the appliance) D Signal light on/ flashing: High temperature alarm Switching on the appliance Rotate the thermostat knob A clockwise towards the thicker end of the sign. 340670 8 Control unit I: When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the D signal light will be on. It will go off automatically when the freezer cools down to a temperature that no longer presents danger of food spoilage. Control unit II: When the appliance is switched on for the first time, there is a 24-hour delay in temperature alarm operation since the appliance will not have reached the adequate temperature. Thus, unnecessary activation of alarm is prevented. Switching off the appliance Rotate the A knob back to the position in which the arrow is aligned with the symbol (appliance will remain powered, i. e. Before placing the food in the appliance, cool it to room temperature. Make sure the fresh food is not in contact with the food that is already frozen. • Maximum amount of fresh food that may be inserted at once is specified on the appliance rating plate. • If the amount of food to be frozen exceeds the indicated amount, the quality of freezing will be inferior; in addition, the quality of the food already frozen will deteriorate.
