Energy Saving Advice

Do not install the appliance close to sources of

heat, such as a boiler or radiator.

Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated room

and make sure that the air openings of the

appliance are not obstructed.

Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by

packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages before

placing them in the freezer.

Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should be

placed in the fridge before being transferred to the

freezer.

Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods

or opening the door too frequently as warm air will

enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to

often switch on unnecessarily.

Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the

door from closing properly.

Before any maintenance or cleaning is

carried out you must DISCONNECT the

appliance from the electricity supply.

Internal Cleaning

Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and

bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).

Rinse and dry thoroughly.

NEVER use detergents, abrasive powders,

highly perfumed cleaning products or wax

polishes to clean the interior as these will

damage the surface and leave a strong

odour.

External Cleaning

Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.

Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille)

and the compressor at the back of the appliance with

a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust

will affect the performance of the appliance and cause

excessive electricity consumption.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If there is a power failure during the storage of

frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the

temperature within your freezer should rise, do not

refreeze the food without checking its condition.

The following guidelines should assist you:

Ice Cream: Once thawed should be discarded.

Fruits & Vegetables: If soft should be cooked and

used up.

Breads & Cakes: Can be refrozen without danger.

Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and used up

quickly.

Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should be

refrigerated and used up.

Large Pieces of Meat: Can be refrozen providing

there are still ice crystals remaining within them.

Small Joints: Should be cooked and can then be

refrozen as cooked dishes.

Chicken: Should also be cooked and refrozen as a

fresh dish.

When the Appliance is not in

Use

When the appliance is not in use for long periods,

disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all

foods and clean the appliance, leaving the door

open to prevent unpleasant smells.

Defrosting

The

freezer

compartment

progressively covered with frost. This should be

removed with the special plastic scraper provided

whenever the thickness of frost exceeds 6 mm

(1/4").

During this operation it is not necessary to switch

off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.

However, when the ice becomes very thick on the

inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried

out and it is advisable to perform this operation

when the appliance is empty.
