2.3. Maintenance
Cleaning
Dust behind the freezer and on the ground should be timely cleaned
to improve the cooling effect and energy saving. The freezer’s interior
should be regularly cleaned to avoid odours. Soft towels or sponge
dipped in water and non-corrosive neutral detergents are suggested for
cleaning. The freezer should be finally cleaned with clean water and a dry
cloth. Open the door for natural drying before the power is turned on.
Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire
brushes, abrasives, such as toothpastes, organic
solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.),
boiling water, acid or alkaline items to clean the freezer
considering that this may damage its surface and
interior.
Do not rinse with water so as not to affect the
electrical insulation properties. Please use a dry cloth
when cleaning the temperature control knob and all
electrical components.
Please unplug the freezer for defrost and cleaning.
Defrost
This freezer should be manually defrosted.
Unplug the freezer and open the freezer’s door; Remove foods and the
shelving basket before defrosting; Open the outflow holes and drainage
holes (and place a water container below the outflow holes); Like this,
the indoor frost will naturally melt. Wipe the defrost water with a dry,
soft cloth. When the frost softens, an ice scraper could be used to
accelerate the de-icing process.
When defrosting, please remove the food and store it in a cool place
before removing accessories.
