Placement

• Before using the freezer, remove all packaging

materials including bottom cushions and foam pads

and tapes inside the freezer, tear o the protective

lm on the door and the freezer body.

• The freezer must be placed in a well-ventilated

indoor place; the ground must be at and sturdy.

• Keep away from heat and avoid direct sunlight. Do

not place the freezer in damp or humid places to

avoid rust formation or reduce the insulating eect.

• The space above the freezer must be above 70 cm,

and it must have a 20 cm gap on both sides and rear

to allow heat dissipation.

AF BECKEN MANUAL arca_congeladora BCF3898 2020.indd 15AF BECKEN MANUAL arca_congeladora BCF3898 2020.indd 15 26/08/2020 15:2826/08/2020 15:28

Start

• The freezer should wait half an hour before being

connected to 220-240 V/50 Hz power when it is

rstly started.

• The freezer should run for 2 to 3 hours before

loading fresh or frozen foods; in summertime, the

freezer should run for more than 4 hours in advance

considering that the ambient temperature is high.

Energy saving tips

• The appliance should be in the coolest area of the room, away from

heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and from direct sunlight.

• Let hot foods cool down to room temperature before placing them in

the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run

longer. Foods that take too long to freeze may lose quality, or spoil.

• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before

placing them in the appliance. This avoids frost from building-up

inside the appliance.

• The storage bin should not be lined with aluminium foil, wax paper, or

paper towelling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the

appliance less eicient.

• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended

searches. Remove as many items as needed all at once, and close the

door as soon as possible.

2.3. Maintenance

Cleaning

Dust behind the freezer and on the ground should be timely cleaned

to improve the cooling eect and energy saving. The freezer’s interior

should be regularly cleaned to avoid odours. Soft towels or sponge

dipped in water and non-corrosive neutral detergents are suggested for

cleaning. The freezer should be nally cleaned with clean water and a dry

cloth. Open the door for natural drying before the power is turned on.

Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire

brushes, abrasives, such as toothpastes, organic

solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.),

boiling water, acid or alkaline items to clean the freezer

considering that this may damage its surface and

interior.

Do not rinse with water so as not to aect the

electrical insulation properties. Please use a dry cloth

when cleaning the temperature control knob and all

electrical components.

Please unplug the freezer for defrost and cleaning.

Defrost

This freezer should be manually defrosted.

Unplug the freezer and open the freezer’s door; Remove foods and the

shelving basket before defrosting; Open the outow holes and drainage

holes (and place a water container below the outow holes); Like this,

the indoor frost will naturally melt. Wipe the defrost water with a dry,

soft cloth. When the frost softens, an ice scraper could be used to

accelerate the de-icing process.

When defrosting, please remove the food and store it in a cool place

before removing accessories.

AF BECKEN MANUAL arca_congeladora BCF3898 2020.indd 17AF BECKEN MANUAL arca_congeladora BCF3898 2020.indd 17 26/08/2020 15:2826/08/2020 15:28

Other mechanical devices or other means should not be used

to accelerate except those recommended by the manufacturer.

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

Stop using

Foods can be preserved for a couple of hours - even in summer - in

case of a power failure; it is recommended to reduce the frequency

of opening the door and to avoid placing fresh foods into the freezer.

Please unplug the freezer if it is left unused for a long time for cleaning.

Keep the door open to avoid odour formation.

Do not turn the freezer upside down and avoid strong vibrations as it

must be placed horizontally. The carrying angle cannot be greater than

45°. Please hold the door and hinge when moving.

Continuous operation is recommended when the freezer

is started. Please do not move the freezer under normal

circumstances so as not to aect the freezer’s service life.

Warnings related to disposal

The freezer’s refrigerant and cyclopentane foam materials are

combustible materials. Discarded freezers should be isolated

from re sources and cannot be burned. Please transfer the

freezer to qualied professional recycling companies for

processing to avoid damages to the environment or other

hazards.

Please remove the freezer’s door and shelves which shall

be properly placed somewhere else to avoid children from

accidentally entering and playing inside it.
