FREEZER DEFROSTING
Frost will accumulate inside the freezer depending upon the
length of time during which the door is left open or the amount
of moisture introduced�
It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form at
places where it will affect the close fitting of the door seal�
This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, thus encouraging
continuous running of the compressor�
Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with a
brush or plastic scraper� Do not use metal or sharp scrapers,
mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting
process� Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor�
For the removal of thin frost it is not necessary to switch off the
appliance�
For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance
from the mains supply and empty the contents into cardboard
boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep
them cold� Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when
the freezer is empty, and it should be carried out as quickly as
possible�
An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during
defrosting will shorten the storage life� Provided that the
contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area, they should
keep for several hours�
Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if
some of the packages have thawed out�
After defrosting is finished clean the inside with a solution
of warm water with a little bicarbonate of soda and then dry
thoroughly� Wash all removable parts in the same way and
reassemble�
Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to 3
hours on setting number 7 before introducing the food back into
the freezer and setting the thermostat to your normal setting�
NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE
You may notice some rather unusual noises� The noises are caused
by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system� It has become
more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases� This is
not a fault and will not affect the performance of your fridge�
PROLONGED OFF PERIODS
If the appliance is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as
follows:
1� Disconnect from the mains supply�
2� Clean and dry the inside (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’)�
3� Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from
building up while the appliance is not in use�
NOTES FOR USE
Do clean and defrost your appliance regularly�
Do check contents of the compartments every so often�
Do store commercially prepared food in accordance with the
instructions given on the packets�
Do choose high quality fresh food and be sure it is thoroughly
clean before freezing it�
