Hints for storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this

appliance, you should:

• Make sure that the commercially frozen

foodstuffs were adequately stored by

the retailer.

• Be sure that frozen foodstuffs are trans-

ferred from the foodstore to the freezer

in the shortest possible time.

• Do not open the lid frequently or leave it

open longer than absolutely necessary.

• Once defrosted, food deteriorates

rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

• Do not exceed the storage period indi-

cated by the food manufacturer.

7. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

Periodic cleaning

CAUTION!

Unplug the appliance before carry-

ing out any maintenance operation.

Do not use detergents, abrasive

products, highly perfumed cleaning

products or wax polishes to clean

the inner side of the appliance.

Prevent damage to the cooling

system. There is no need to clean

the compressor area.

4. Switch off the appliance.

5. Regularly clean the appliance and the

accessories with lukewarm water and

neutral soap.

Clean the lid seal carefully.

6. Fully dry the appliance.

7. Connect the mains plug to the mains

socket.

8. Switch on the appliance.

Defrosting the freezer

CAUTION!

Never use sharp metal tools to

scrape off frost from the evaporator

as you could damage it. Do not use

a mechanical device or any articial

means to speed up the thawing

process other than those recom-

mended by the manufacturer. A

temperature rise of the frozen food

packs, during defrosting, may

shorten their safe storage life.

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer

reaches a thickness of about 10-15 mm.

The amount of frost on the walls of the ap-

pliance will be increased by high levels of

outer humidity and if the frozen food is not

wrapped properly.

The best time to defrost the freezer when

it contains no or only a little food.

1. Switch off the appliance.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in

several layers of newspaper and put it

in a cool place.

3. Leave the lid open, remove the plug

from the defrost water drain and col-

lect all defrost water on a tray. Use a

scraper to remove ice quickly.

• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to

touch food which is already frozen, thus

avoiding a rise in temperature of the

latter.

• Lean foods store better and longer than

fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life

of food.

• Frozen liquids, if consumed immediately

after removal from the freezer compart-

ment, can possibly cause the skin to be

freeze burnt.

• It is advisable to show the freezing in

date on each individual pack to enable

you to keep tab of the storage time.
