  5. Initial rest: Let appliance stand upright for 4 hours before first use.

WARNING! Appliance is heavy; use two people for moving. Ensure proper ventilation to prevent overheating.

First-Time Setup

After installation rest period, power on the freezer.

  1. Set temperature: Press temperature button to set desired freezing level (recommended -18°C / 0°F).
  2. Activate SuperCool: Press SuperCool button for rapid cooling before loading food.
  3. Load food: Place items evenly, leaving space for air circulation.

Energy Saving Tips

Maximize efficiency and reduce electricity costs.

  1. Set temperature to -18°C (0°F); each degree lower increases energy use.
  2. Use SuperCool only when adding large amounts of unfrozen food.
  3. Ensure door seals are clean and tight.
  4. Place freezer in a cool room, away from ovens or direct sunlight.
  5. Allow hot food to cool before freezing.
  6. Defrost (if manual defrost model) regularly.
  7. Keep freezer well-filled (uses less energy than empty).

WARNING! Do not cover ventilation grilles. Ensure adequate air circulation around appliance.

NoFrost Technology

Automatic defrosting system; no manual defrosting needed.

How it works: A fan circulates cold air, keeping humidity low and preventing ice formation on interior surfaces. Condensed moisture is collected and evaporated automatically. Benefits: Consistent temperature, no ice buildup, better food preservation, maintenance-free operation.

Care & Cleaning

Unplug before cleaning. Use mild detergent and water; never use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

  1. Interior: Wipe shelves, drawers, and walls with damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
  2. Exterior: Clean door and control panel with soft cloth.
  3. Door seals: Clean gently to maintain seal integrity.
  4. Condenser coil (rear): Vacuum dust annually to maintain efficiency.
  5. Do not use steam cleaners.

CAUTION! Never pour water inside or use sharp objects to remove ice (NoFrost model should not have ice).
