SOME IMPORTANT RULES FOR THE CORRECT USE OF
THE FREEZER
•
Never place hot foods in the freezer.
•
Never place spoiled foods in the unit.
•
Don’t overload the unit.
•
Don’t open the lid unless necessary.
•
Should the freezer be stored without use for long periods, it
is suggested, after careful cleaning, to leave the lid open to
allow the air to circulate inside the unit in order to avoid the
possibility of condensation, mold or odors.
