Troubleshooting

Freezer is not cold enough

Ensure the temperature control is set correctly. Check that the door is closing properly and the seals are clean. Avoid overloading the freezer. Allow adequate ventilation space around the unit.

Freezer is making unusual noises

Some operational noises are normal. If noises are loud or persistent, check that the freezer is level using the adjustable feet. Ensure nothing is touching the back or sides of the unit.

Freezer won't turn on

Check that the power cord is securely plugged in. Verify that the power outlet is working by testing it with another appliance. Check your home's circuit breaker.

Power Requirements: Operates on a standard 220-240V, 50Hz power supply.

Care:

Cleaning: Regularly clean the interior with a mild detergent and warm water. Ensure the appliance is unplugged before cleaning. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. Clean the door seals regularly to maintain their effectiveness.

When frost build-up reaches approximately 1-2 cm, unplug the freezer, empty its contents (using cooler boxes if necessary), and leave the door open until the frost has melted. Clean and dry thoroughly before restarting.
Ventilation: Keep the area around the freezer clear to ensure proper air circulation.
