partment, can possibly cause the skin
to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing in
date on each individual pack to enable
you to keep tab of the storage time.
6.2 Hints for storage of frozen
food
To obtain the best performance from
this appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially fro-
zen foodstuffs were adequately stored
by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are
transferred from the foodstore to the
freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the lid frequently or leave it
open longer than absolutely necessa-
ry.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates
rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period in-
dicated by the food manufacturer.
7. CARE AND CLEANING
CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before car-
rying out any maintenance oper-
ation.
This appliance contains hydrocar-
bons in its cooling unit; mainte-
nance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by
authorized technicians.
7.1 Periodic cleaning
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
3. Regularly clean the appliance and
the accessories with warm water and
neutral soap. Clean the lid seal care-
fully.
4. Fully dry the appliance.
5. Connect the mains plug to the mains
socket.
6. Switch on the appliance.
CAUTION!
Do not use detergents, abrasive
products, highly perfumed clean-
ing products or wax polishes to
clean the inner side of the appli-
ance.
Prevent damage to the cooling
system.
There is no need to clean the
compressor area.
7.2 Defrosting the freezer
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 10-15 mm.
The best time to defrost the freezer
when it contains no or only a little food.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put
it in a cool place.
3. Leave the lid open until ice starts
melting. Use a scraper to remove ice
quickly.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry
the interior thoroughly. Close the lid.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to ob-
tain the maximum coldness and run
the appliance for two or three hours
using this setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food
into the compartment.
Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost as you could
damage the appliance. Do not
use a mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the
thawing process other than those
recommended by the manufac-
turer. A temperature rise of the
frozen food packs, during de-
frosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.
