Maintenance
Freezing Fresh Food
Defrosting
• Remove the mains plug from the
wall socket, open the door and
transfer all the food to a cool place.
• Remove frost using a plastic
scraper, or let the temperature rise
naturally until the frost melts. Then
wipe away the remaining ice and
water, after this, plug the refrigera-
tor back into the mains supply.
Note: To avoid damaging the freezer
compartment wall, do not use any
sharp objects to remove the frost or
separate the frozen food.
Cleaning the unit
Before cleaning the unit, remove the
mains plug from the power supply.
• Use a clean sponge or soft cloth
and a mild detergent in warm water.
Clean with a cloth soaked in this so-
lution and then dry with a soft cloth.
• Do not use abrasive or harsh clean-
ers. Hand wash, rinse and dry all
surfaces thoroughly.
• Do not use cleaning wax, concen-
trated detergents, bleaches or
cleaners containing petroleum on
plastics and rubber parts.
• Never use paper towels, window
sprays, scouring cleansers or flam-
mable fluids on plastic parts as they
could scratch or damage the finish.
• Make sure that freezing operations
are carried out under the most hy-
gienic conditions as freezing alone
does not sterilize the food.
• It is advisable to freeze the food by
packing it into separate meal por-
tions and not in bulk form.
• Never place hot or warm foods into
the freezer compartment.
• Prior to storing frozen food, pack it
in plastic bags, aluminum sheets or
freezing containers and place into
the freezer compartment.
• See the data plate on the back of
the refrigerator-freezer for the
maximum permissible amount in ki-
lograms of fresh food that can be
frozen in any 24 hour period with a
room temperature of 25 °C.
• Never freeze more than the maxi-
mum permissible.
• For best performance, leave
enough space in the freezer com-
partment for air to circulate around
the packages.
Note: Never place bottled drinks in
the freezer compartment.
