Operating Instructions

STARTING THE APPLIANCE

The appliance is ready to operate as received, when connected to the power supply. After connecting
to the power supply, the "red light" will illuminate, indicating that the appliance has power. When the
"green light" illuminates, that indicates that the compressor is running. Hearing a noise while the
compressor is running is normal. The refrigerant in the system may create a noise even when the
compressor is not running, which is also normal.
Once the appliance is cycling regularly, it is ready to store foods. The proper food storage
temperature is -18°C (0°F). Running the appliance below -18°C (0°F) will cause the appliance to run
longer and use more energy and it will not help the food freeze more quickly.
When adding fresh, unfrozen food packages, store them against the walls. In view of the value of the
contents of the appliance, it is advisable to inspect contents and check operation regularly.
Note: The lid of the appliance may be diffi cult to open just after it has been closed. This is normal and
is due to a pressure difference inside the appliance. The pressure will equalize and the lid will open
normally after a few minutes.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The temperature is controlled by adjusting the thermostat control knob
located on the front of the cabinet. To achieve the maximum cooling
temperature quickly:
• Turn the temperature control knob clockwise to the number 5 on the
control dial. 1 is the warmest setting, 5 is the coldest setting.
• The temperature range of the appliance is roughly -12°C (10.4°F) to
-30°C (-22°F).
• Allow the appliance to run at this setting for approximately 3 - 4
hours.
• When maximum cooling is achieved, turn the control knob to your
desired temperature setting.
• To turn the appliance off, turn the control knob to the "OFF" position.
Indicator Lights
• Red LED: indicates that the appliance is connected to a power
supply
• Green LED: indicates that the compressor is working

LEVELING INSTRUCTIONS
