Storing frozen food
Your freezer is suitable for the long-term
storage of commercially frozen foods and also
can be used to freeze and store fresh food.
If there is a power failure, do not open the
door. Frozen food should not be affected if the
failure lasts for less than 20 hrs. If the failure
is longer, then the food should be checked
and either eaten immediately or cooked and
then re-frozen
Freezing fresh food
Please observe the following instructions to
obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one
time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your
appliance in 24 h.
Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the refrigeration
machine to operate continously until the food
is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to
excessive cooling of the refrigeration
compartment.
We recommanded you to press fast freeze
button nearly 2 hours before you load your
fresh food to freeze.
This will shorten your freezeng time period.
Take special care not to mix already frozen
food and fresh food.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and
place it in the freezer. Loosen frozen trays
with a spoon handle or a similar implement;
never use sharp-edged objects such as
knives or forks.
Defrosting
A) Fridge compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically. The defrost water runs to the
drain tube via a collection container at the
back of the appliance (Item 5).
During defrosting, water droplets may form at
the back of the fridge compartment where a
concealed evaporator is located. Some
droplets may remain on the liner and refreeze
when defrosting is completed. Do not use
pointed or sharp-edged objects such as
knives or forks to remove the droplets which
have refrozen.
If, at any time, the defrost water does not
drain from the collection channel, check that
no food particles have blocked the drain tube.
The drain tube can be cleared with a pipe-
cleaner or similar implement.
B) Freezer compartment
We recommend you to defrost the freezer
compartment at least twice a year or when the
ice layer is too thick.
Before defrosting, put the thermostat knob on
the highest position so that the food get more
cold. During this time the temperature of the
refrigerator must not be too low.
- Unplug the appliance.
- Take out the frozen food, wrap them in
several sheets of paper and put then in a cool
place.
- Leave the door open for a quick defrosting
and place inside vessels with warm water
(max. 80

•
Ice build-up is a normal phenomenon.
•
The quantity and the frequency of ice build-
up depends on the ambient conditions and of
the frequency of door opening.
•
The ice build-up, especially in the upper side
of the compartment, is a natural phenomenon
and does not affect the good operation of the
appliance.
•
It is advisable to defrost the appliance when
the quantity of food is the minimum.
