Hints for storage

To obtain the best performance from your freezer:

Do not store warm food or evaporating liquid.
Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it

straight away.  The use of an insulated container is

advisable.  When you arrive home, place the frozen

food in the freezer immediately.
Do not push food together too much, try to allow air

to circulate around each item.
Do not store food uncovered.
Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and

used in date order to ensure that food is consumed

at its best.
Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty foods,

salt also reduces storage time.
Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing

bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and

provide an airtight seal.
Packaging which is swollen or has traces of

refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate

that the product has not been kept at a suitable

temperature and that it may have lost its original

quality. Partially thawed food must not be

refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours.

Never exceed the storage times indicated by the

manufacturer.

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 ensure that the air openings of the

appliance are not obstructed.
Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by

packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages

before being transferred into 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 switch on unnecessarily often.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the

door from closing properly.

Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried

out, 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 APPLIANCE

INTERIOR AS THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE

AND LEAVE A STRONG SMELL.

External Cleaning

Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.  Do

NOT use abrasive products.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)

and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with

a brush or vacuum cleaner, see figure.
