Clearance: Ensure at least 5 cm clearance at back and sides for ventilation.
Connect to power: Plug into a grounded 220-240V, 50Hz outlet.

WARNING! The freezer is heavy; use two people for moving. Ensure it is level to prevent vibration and door issues.

First-Time Setup

After installation, allow the freezer to stand upright for at least 4 hours before connecting to power.

Initial power on: Plug in the appliance. The control panel will illuminate.
Set temperature: Press the temperature button to set desired freezer temperature (recommended -18°C).
SuperCool mode: For initial cooling or after loading new food, activate SuperCool to rapidly lower temperature.
Load food: Once target temperature is reached, load frozen goods evenly across shelves.

CAUTION! Do not load large quantities of unfrozen food at once. Allow the appliance to stabilize for 24 hours for optimal performance.

After plugging in, the control panel will light up and the appliance will begin cooling.

Tip: Use a surge protector for added safety in areas with unstable power supply.

Using the Freezer

Optimize performance and food preservation with proper use.

Loading food: Allow hot food to cool to room temperature before freezing. Package food airtight to prevent freezer burn.
Organization: Use baskets for smaller items. Place newer items behind older ones (FIFO).
SuperCool: Activate before adding large amounts of unfrozen food.
Temperature check: Monitor digital display. Internal temperature may vary slightly from set point during compressor cycles.
Power failure: In case of outage, keep door closed. Food will remain frozen for many hours depending on load and ambient temperature.

WARNING! Do not store explosive substances, carbonated drinks in sealed glass, or flammable sprays. Do not block air vents inside compartment.

NoFrost Technology

The NoFrost system automatically circulates dry, cold air to prevent frost and ice formation. No manual defrosting is ever required. The system includes a fan and a heater that periodically activates to melt any minimal frost on the evaporator. The water drains away and evaporates. This ensures consistent temperature and humidity levels, better food preservation, and energy efficiency.

Care & Cleaning

Unplug before cleaning. Use mild detergent and warm water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Interior: Remove all food and shelves/baskets. Wash with soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
Exterior: Clean door and control panel with a soft damp cloth.
Condenser coil (rear): Vacuum dust annually to maintain efficiency.
Door seals: Wipe clean to ensure proper seal.

CAUTION! Never use steam cleaners, sharp objects, or hot water. Do not clean cold glass shelves with warm water to prevent cracking.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Possible Cause	Corrective Action
Appliance not cooling	Power supply/plug	Check if plugged in and outlet has power. Ensure power switch is on.
