Išpakavimas
Carefully remove all packaging materials. Inspect the freezer for any damage. Report any damage to your retailer immediately. Keep packaging materials away from children.
Įdėjimas
Choose a suitable location for your chest freezer. Ensure it is placed on a flat, stable surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources (such as stoves, radiators), and extreme cold. Allow adequate ventilation space around the appliance (at least 10 cm on sides and back, 30 cm above). This ensures efficient operation and prevents overheating.

Pradinis įjungimas
After placing the freezer, wait at least 2-4 hours before plugging it into a power outlet. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Plug the appliance into a dedicated, properly grounded electrical outlet. The freezer will begin to cool. Allow it to operate empty for several hours (e.g., 4-6 hours) to reach its operating temperature before loading food.

Naudojimo instrukcijos
Multi-Mode Control Panel
Your Defy Multimode Chest Freezer features a control panel that allows you to switch between three operating modes: Freezer, Chiller, and Refrigerator. Refer to the markings on the control panel for specific settings. Use the dial or buttons to select your desired mode and temperature.

Using the Movable Basket
The freezer includes a movable basket designed for efficient organization of smaller or frequently accessed items. Place the basket on the designated ledge inside the freezer compartment. This helps prevent items from getting lost at the bottom of the freezer and allows for better air circulation.

Priežiūra ir priežiūra
Vidaus valymas
Before cleaning, always unplug the freezer from the power outlet. Clean the interior regularly with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or sharp objects, as these can damage the interior surfaces.
Atitirpinimas
Frost buildup can reduce the efficiency of your freezer. Defrost the appliance when the frost layer reaches approximately 5-10 mm thickness. To defrost:
- Atjunkite šaldiklį.
- Išimkite visus maisto produktus ir laikykite juos kitame šaldiklyje arba šaldytuve.
- Palikite dangtį atidarytą, kad šerkšnas natūraliai ištirptų. Apačioje galite patiesti rankšluosčių, kad sugertų vandenį.
- Atšildžius, kruopščiai išvalykite ir išdžiovinkite vidų.
- Plug the freezer back in and allow it to cool before returning food.
Nenaudokite aštrių daiktų ar šildymo prietaisų atitirpinimo pagreitinimui, nes tai gali sugadinti prietaisą.
Išorės valymas
Išorinius paviršius nuvalykite minkštu skudurėliu dampened with mild detergent and water. Dry thoroughly. Regularly clean the condenser coils at the back of the freezer (if accessible) with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to ensure efficient operation.
