IV. INSTALATION

•This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or

built-in.

•Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support the freezer when it is

fully loaded.

•Allow 15 cm of space between the back and sides of the freezer, which allows the

proper air circulation.

•Locate the freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater,

radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase

electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the freezer not

to perform properly.

•Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas.

•Plug the freezer into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not

under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any

questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified

electrician or an authorized service center.

•After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2~3

hours before placing food in the freezer compartment.

Cleaning Before Use

Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with

warm water using a 'Wrung-out' sponge or cloth. Wash the shelves and salad bin in

warm soapy water and dry completely before replacing in the unit. Clean the exterior of

the unit with a damp cloth.

If you require more information refer to the Cleaning section.

Before Using Your Unit

•Remove the exterior and interior packing.

•Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:

1 Storage Baskets

1 Instruction Manual

1 Plastic Scraper (optional)

•Before connecting the freezer to the power source, let it stand upright for

approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling

system from handling during transportation.

•Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

◆Before Plugging in

You must check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug

supplied with the unit.

◆Before Turning On!

Do not turn on until two hours after moving the unit.

Temperature Control

•Your freezer has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature

control is located on the lower right hand corner.

•The range of the temperature control is from position" 1" the warmest to "6" the

coldest. Adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The

setting of “4” should be appropriate for home or office freezer use.

•To turn the freezer off, turn the temperature control to "OFF".

Moving Your Freezer

•Remove all the food.

•Securely tape down all loose items inside your freezer.

•Remove the rollers to prevent damage.

•Tape the doors shut.

•Be sure the freezer stays in the upright position during transportation.

V. USING INSTRUCTIONS

www.heinner.com

NOTE:

•Turning the temperature control to "OFF" position stops the cooling cycle but does

not shut off the power to the freezer.

•If the unit is unplugged, lost power, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes

before

•Restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the freezer will

not start.

•Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance.

•If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one

numerical increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize

between adjustments.

Defrosting Your Freezer

•When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption,

defrost the freezer when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive or 5 to 10 mm thick.

•Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.

CAUTION

Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use

a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and

will void the warranty. We recommend using the plastic scraper provided with your

unit.

•Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the

food.

•Turn the thermostat knob to “OFF”.

•Unplug the freezer. The Power Supply light should be off (green light out).

•During defrosting, the ice melts into the cabinet.

•Remove the drain plug on the inside floor of the freezer by pulling straight out.

•Place a shallow pan outside drain outlet. The defrost water will drain out.

•Check the pan occasionally so the water does not overflow.

•Clean the interior of the freezer.

•Replace the plug on the inside floor.

•Reset the thermostat to desired setting.

•Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour.

•Return food to the freezer.

HELPFUL HINT:

Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the

process. Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed

melting. If you must use a scraper- please use caution - it is very easy to damage the

freezer compartment and void your warranty.

The Freezer Compartment

•This compartment is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food. Storage

time is up to three months.

•The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should

not be exceeded. The instructions regarding the care of frozen foods should be

followed when defrosting the freezer.

•Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the

frozen foods manufacturer’s instructions for a three star frozen food storage

compartment or home freezer.

•Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there

are instructions on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage

times.

•The freezer door is susceptible to breaking due to excessive ice build up. Be sure

to defrost when the ice reaches 5 to 10 mm thick.

•A storage basket is provided for the organization of odd-shaped items. To reach

other packages in the freezer, just slide the basket to one side, or lift it out.

Vacation Time

•Remove all the food.

•Unplug the freezer.

•Clean the freezer.

•Leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or

odors.

•Use extreme caution in the case of children. The unit should not be accessible to

child’s play.

•Short vacations: Leave the freezer operating during vacations of less than three

weeks.

•Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all

food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent

odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary or

have the door removed.

www.heinner.com

•Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned

thoroughly.

•Turn the temperature control to "OFF", unplug the freezer, remove the food and storage

basket.

•Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth containing a water and baking soda solution.

The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

•Wash the storage basket with a mild detergent solution.

•Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean to keep the unit running efficiently.

•The outside of the freezer should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

•Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.

•The condenser coils should be vacuumed when they are dusty or dirty.

•It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each time it is defrosted to help keep the

unit odor free and running efficiently.

VI. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

•The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing

appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.

•Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the freezer. Overloading the

freezer forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or

spoil.

•Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the

freezer. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.

•Freezer storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.

Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.

•Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as

many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
