Turning on

Turn on the device by connecting the plug to a wall socket and turning the temperature control, which

is located at the device back side. Please also refer to chapter "Settings”.

Settings

Turn the temperature control clockwise. The Settings 1 MIN – 5 MAX regulate the inside tempera-

ture.

Setting 1 (or MIN) = lowest setting (warmest inside temperature)

Setting 5 (or MAX) = highest setting (coldest inside temperature)

Turning the temperature control clockwise will lower the inside temperature. Please keep in mind that

the temperature changes with the ambient temperature (of the location), with the frequency of opening

the door and the amount of food in the device.

During initial operation, turn the temperature control to the highest setting first, until the device has

reached the desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is recommended to turn the control back to a

medium setting; correcting the temperature at a later point would then be easier.

Storing food

Storing food

The freezer allows you to store frozen food at a temperature of -18°C or below (from a middle

temperature control setting) for several months, to produce ice cubes and to freeze fresh good.

The temperature of the device is automatically controlled by the temperature control.

Due to external influences such as room temperature, placements, frequency of opening the door and

the amount of food the temperature in the freezer can be influenced.

Freezing

Freezing

• 24 hours before freezing we recommend turning the temperature control to the max. setting and to

keep this setting even after freezing for a few hours.

The device is not compromised if the setting will not revert to a normal operating temperature (tem-

perature control in middle setting) after the freezing process, but for economic reasons you should

possibly avoid it.

• Place fresh food to be frozen in the upper compartment. In order for that to be always possible,

frozen food items need to be rearranged frequently.

• Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to the core. Therefore during freezing operation,

the temperature of fresh food should be lowered as fast as possible in order to keep formation of

ice crystals as little as possible and not to damage the food structure.

• If the freezing process is too slow, ice crystals build up and the food quality might get affected.

• Even frozen food should be stored in the lower compartments, in order to keep the upper com-

partment available for fresh food.

• Frozen food should be kept in contact with the bottom of the compartment.

• Keep a space between the single items for air circulation.
