7. You have switched on the appliance for approximately 12 hours prior to loading
it with products. Avoid packing products in too tightly – air must be able to
circulate freely
8. You never put bottles or cans of fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as they
may burst when freezing. Also, do not give children ice-lollies straight from the
freezer compartment as they may cause frost burns.
9. Hot liquids and food are not introduced directly into the freezer, allow them to
cool down first.
10. You are aware that the temperature inside the appliance can vary
according to the ambient temperature, the location of the freezer, the frequency
with which the lid is opened, and the volume and concentration of products
stored in it.
11. You avoid packing products in too tightly – air must be able to circulate freely.
12. For the safety of children keep the key out of children’s reach at all times.
13. It is recommended that a suitably qualified person carry out a yearly service
check.
CLEANING YOUR FREEZER
Clean the bin of the appliance using ½ a litre of warm water and a tablespoon
of bicarbonate of soda.
Soak a soft cloth in the solution, wring it out, and use it to clean out the interior
of the freezer compartment and its fittings.
Do not use wax polish, scouring powder, strong scented products or household
cleaners and detergent to clean the interior of the appliance as they may
damage the surface and leave a strong odour.
The exterior of the appliance should be wiped clean periodically using a damp
cloth and a small quantity of household detergent. The lid seal should only be
cleaned with soap and water and then thoroughly dried. The absorption unit at
the side of the appliance should be cleaned with a brush or feather duster from
time to time, but make sure that the appliance is switched off and has cooled
down when doing this.
DEFROSTING
WARNING:
Normally the temperature of items would rise during defrosting and so, they
should be consumed within 24 hours or discarded.
Do not try to accelerate defrosting by using any kind of heating appliance, as this
may damage the internal surfaces of the freezer.
No sharp object to be used to scrape off the ice as this may damage the internal
surfaces of the freezer.
Frost will gradually accumulate on the freezer surface. It must not be allowed
to grow thick as it acts as an insulator and adversely affects freezer
performance.
