Defrosting of Frozen Food
Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be
used as soon as possible. Cold air preserves
the food but it does not destroy
microorganisms which rapidly activate
themselves after defrosting and make foods
perishable. Partial defrosting reduces the
nutritional value of foods, especially of fruits,
vegetables and ready-made meals.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Freezer Defrosting
Frost and ice layer, depositing on the inner
walls of the freezer should be defrosted when
3-5 mm thick.
•
24 hours before defrosting set the switch to
continuous operation (the yellow light is on)
so that the food packages are well cooled.
After that empty the freezer and take care
that the packages don't start to thaw.
•
Disconnect the appliance from the mains
supply.
•
Insert the enclosed pipe into the groove in
the bottom of the appliance and place a
vessel underneath to collect the defrost
water. Defrosting is accelerated if the door is
left open.
•
Avoid using defrosting sprays, as they may
cause damage to the plastic parts and may
be hazardous to health.
Cleaning the Appliance
Before cleaning the appliance disconnect
the cable from the mains supply.
Do not use
abrasive cleaning agents.
Be careful to remove any cleanser agent
remaining after cleaning.
•
Clean the
exterior
of the appliances with
water and liquid detergent. Varnished
surfaces are cleaned with soft cloth and an
alcohol based cleaning agent (for example
glass cleaners). You may also use alcohol
(ethanol or isoprophylic alcohol). The
application of abrasive and specially
aggressive cleaners, such as the stainless
steel cleaners, is not appropriate for the
cleaning of plastic and coated parts.
•
Wash the
interior
with lukewarm water and
some vinegar.
•
From time to time wipe the
condenser
on
the rear wall with a soft non-metal brush or
vacuum cleaner.
