TEMPERATURE SETTING

Temperature can be adjusted by pressing the “SET” button. When the “SET” button is selected, the indicator lights will light up according to temperature setting. The freezer thermostat control regulates the temperature setting. The internal temperature is controlled by a sensor. There are 5 settings: "-14°C, -16°C, -18°C, -20°C, -22°C" and Super Freezing mode. The warmest setting is -14°C and -22°C is the coldest setting. It is advisable to use the optimal setting, which is -18°C, to avoid the freezer operating at its coldest temperature, which can reduce the lifespan of the compressor.

SUPER FREEZING MODE

Press and hold the “SET” button for 3 seconds to activate the super freezing mode. When this mode is activated, the temperature will be cooled down continuously to prevent food nutrition loss and preserve freshness. Press and hold “SET” button for 3 seconds to exit super freezing mode. After a continuous cooling period of 50 hours, the super freezing mode will turn off automatically. The temperature setting will revert to the last operating temperature.

ALARM BUZZER

When the freezer door is open for more than 90 seconds, the buzzer will start alarming. Keep the door closed to turn off the alarm.

HIGH TEMPERATURE ALARM

When a high internal temperature is detected, a high temperature alarm will be triggered. All indicator lights will flash. Press the “SET” button to cancel the alarm.

DAILY TIPS

Freezing fresh food

• It is recommended to wrap or cover the food before placing them in the freezer.
• The food that you want to freeze must be fresh and in good quality.

  1. Do not freeze too large quantities of food at one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
  2. Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the cooling system to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid.
  3. Do not block the outlet and inlet of the cool air circulating, otherwise the foods will not be evenly cooled throughout the freezer.
