Saving energy
• Locate the bar freezer in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing
appliances and out of direct sunlight.
• Do not line the freezer shelves or drawer with aluminium foil, wax paper or paper
towelling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.
• Do not pack frozen food packages close together as this prevents air circulating.
• Do not open the freezer door unnecessarily or for too long, especially during a
power failure.
• Do not run the appliance permanently on the maximum temperature setting. The
maximum setting is recommended on very hot days, or when you have added a
large quantity of frozen food.
Power failure
• Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
temperature inside your freezer, if you minimise the number of times the door is
opened. However, if the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you
need to take proper steps to protect your food.
• Do not refreeze frozen food without checking its condition first.
• If in doubt, discard the food. Do not refreeze food that has thawed completely.
Going away?
• Short vacation
: Leave the freezer operating during vacations of less than a month.
• Long vacation
: If you are not going to use the freezer for longer periods, remove all
food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent
odour and mould growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open, if necessary.
CAUTION!
If applicable, restrict children’s access to the room with the open freezer
to avoid creating a child entrapment risk.
Moving the freezer
• Remove all food from inside the freezer,
securely tape down the drawer and shelf
and tape the door shut. Turn the levelling
feet up to the base to avoid damage.
• Protect the outside of the unit with a
blanket or similar soft material and make
sure the freezer stays secure in the upright
position during transportation.
• When moving the freezer, do not tilt it
more than 45 degrees (Fig. 6).
