HOW TO USE
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The thermostat ensures that the required temperature is maintained in the freezer. Turning the thermostat knob towards no. 7 makes the temperature in the freezer colder, and turning the knob towards no. 1 makes the temperature warmer. The correct setting can be found by measuring the temperature of the top package in the middle of the freezer. This should not have a temperature higher than -18°C.

PACKAGING AND POSITIONING
Food must be cold before freezing (no more than room temperature). Food must be packed in airtight and moisture-proof packaging to prevent it from drying out. Place fresh food for freezing close to the cold sides of the freezer, making sure that it is not in contact with the frozen food already in the freezer. Never fill the freezer to more than 5 mm below the top edge. See under �Helpful hints�.

CAPACITY
The freezing capacity of the freezer is stated in the data plate (kg/24 hours). Do not exceed the amount stated if you do, the freezing time will be extended. The data plate is located inside the lid. IMPORTANT The freezing capacity stated can be utilised to the full occasionally to freeze large amounts of fresh food. However, if the freezer is filled with large amounts of food for freezing every day, the capacity stated is reduced by about one-third.

OPENING/CLOSING THE LID
The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing strip to prevent moisture getting inside the freezer and increasing the amount of frost formed. When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer becomes slightly warmer and expands. As soon as the lid is closed again the air is cooled immediately. This may lead to the creation of a vacuum which makes it hard to open the lid immediately after it has been closed. This is quite normal. Wait a few minutes until the vacuum has disappeared, then open the lid by pulling gently. Never pull the handle violently.

FREEZING CAPACITY

FAST FREEZING
It is important that fresh food placed in the freezer is frozen quickly, and that the food already in the freezer is heated as little as possible. If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen: Turn the thermostat knob to the coldest setting (�7�). The freezer will now run continuously, creating a sufficient reserve of the temperature required. Turn the thermostat knob 6-24 hours before placing new food in the freezer, depending on how much food is to be frozen. Place the food in the freezer and leave the thermostat set at �7.� for about 24 hours more. Then turn the thermostat knob back again. The freezer will return to normal storage temperature. If you forget to turn the thermostat knob back, the freezer will not be damaged by running at this setting for some time but energy will be wasted.
