How to use

Place the freezer on a level, stable surface with adequate clearance around the cabinet for ventilation.

Before first use, clean the interior with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly. Load food items into the compartment in appropriate packaging for freezing, keeping airflow around items for even temperature distribution.

To extend service life and maintain efficiency, defrost the freezer when ice buildup reaches 0.6–1 cm, keep door seals clean and inspect ventilation clearances regularly. Store food in airtight packaging and label items with dates to manage rotation and reduce waste.
