CLEANING AND CARE
•
We recommend that you switch off the freezer from the main power outlet and
pull out the mains plug before cleaning.
•
Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent
or wax polish for cleaning.
•
Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of the freezer and wipe it dry.
•
Use a damp cloth which has been dipped & squeezed in a solution of one
teaspoon of soda bicarbonate mixed in a pint of water, to clean the interior and
wipe it dry.
•
Excess deposit of ice should be removed on a regular basis using a plastic ice
scraper available. Large accumulation of ice will affect the performance of the
freezer as it acts as an insulation.
•
If the freezer is not going to be used for a long period of time, switch it off,
remove all food and clean it.
•
Check lid seals (gasket) regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food
particles.
Important Notes:
Never use water to wash the compressor position and wipe it with a dry cloth
thoroughly after cleaning to prevent rust.

This ensures fast freezing.

The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the center as
quickly as possible. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.
DEFROSTING
•
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7mm (1/4”) has formed.

You can defrost by switching off the freezer at the socket outlet and pulling out
the mains plug.

Extract the water conduit and put in a water container.
•
6 hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat knob at ‘MAX’ position
to make sure the food is at the lowest temperature when you get it out. All food
should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place.

Remove the freezer basket. Leave the lid open. Containers of warm water may
be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting.
