Do not exceed the freezing capacity
of your appliance in 24 hours. See the
rating label.
In order to maintain the quality of the
food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not
be exceeded, and the temperature
inside the freezer will not rise.
t"UUFOUJPO
Keep the already deep-frozen food
always separated with freshly placed
food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the
cooling compressor will work until the
food is completely frozen. This can
temporarily cause excessive cooling
of the refrigeration compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult
to open just after you have closed it,
don’t worry. This is due to the pressure
difference which will equalize and
allow the door to open normally after
a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just
after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
Fast freeze
If large amounts of fresh food are
going to be frozen, adjust the control
knob to max. 24 hours before putting
the fresh food in the fast freeze
compartment.
It is strongly recommended to
keep the knob at MAX. position at
least 24 hours to freeze maximum
amount of fresh food declared as
freezing capacity. Take special care
not to mix frozen food and fresh food.
Remember to turn the thermostat
knob back to
its
previous
position once food has frozen.
Defrosting of the appliance
Excessive build-up of ice will affect
the freezing performance of your
appliance.
It is therefore recommended that you
defrost your appliance at least twice
a year, or whenever the ice build-up
exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your appliance when there is
only little or no food in it.
Take out the deep-frozen food from
the drawers. Wrap the deep-frozen
food in several layers of paper, or a
blanket, and keep it in a cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch
off the circuit breaker to start the
defrosting process.
Take out the accessories (like shelf,
drawer etc.) from the appliance and
use a suitable container to collect the
thawing water.
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to
remove
thawing water if necessary.
Keep the door open during
defrosting.
For quicker defrosting, place
containers with warm water inside
the appliance.
Never use electrical devices,
defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp-
edged objects such as knives or forks
to remove the ice.
