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 centre as quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 hrs see technical data at
the rear of this manual.
Do not Place warm food into the freezer compartment allow to cool to ambient
temperature.
It’s advisable to adjust the thermostat control to the maximum to lower the inner
temperature 24 hrs before freezing fresh food in the appliance.
Insert the fresh food, and after 24 hrs all the fresh food should be frozen.
Turn the thermostat control back to the normal position after freezing is completed.
Never place food to be frozen in direct contact with food already stored.
It may be necessary to reduce the quantity to be frozen if freezing every day is
anticipated.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full of clean water and place the tray in the freezer and close
the door.
To remove the ice cubes from the tray run the tray under water for a shot time and
twist the tray slightly to loosen the ice cubes.
Defrosting
The surface of the evaporator ices up when the freezer is in use. When the frost layer
reaches a thickness of 4-6 mm the freezer must be defrosted and cleaned.
Otherwise it may result in lower efficiency and high energy consumption.
