Materials that may cause odour 

are not used in the production 

of our Freezers. However, due 

to inappropriate food preserving 

conditions and not cleaning the 

inner surface of the Freezers 

as required can bring forth the 

problem of odour. Pay attention to 

following to avoid this problem:

•  Keeping the Freezers clean 

is important. Food residuals, 
stains, etc. can cause odour. 
Therefore, clean the Freezers 
with Sodium Bicarbonate 
dissolved in water every few 
months.Never use detergents 
or soap.
