PROBLEMS WITH YOUR FREEZER
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
You can solve many common freezer
problems easily, saving you the cost of a
possible service call. Try the suggestions
below to see if you can solve the problem
before calling the servicer .
For household refrigerating appliances, in
normal temperature conditions, please
arrange the thermostat at the middle setting.
Before loading the appliance with packages
of fresh foods, make sure they are cooled to
ambient temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy
consumption, so do clean the appliance as
soon as the layer is 3-5 mm thick.
If it is the outer condenser, the rear wall
should be always clean, free of dust or any
impurities.
Always consider instructions stated in
sections Positioning and Energy Saving Tips,
otherwise the energy consumption is
substantially higher.
Moving Your Freezer
Remove all the food.
Securely tape down all loose items inside
your freezer.
Remove the rollers to prevent damage.
Tape the doors shut.
Be sure the freezer stays in the upright
position during transportation.
Energy Saving Tips
The freezer should be located in the coolest
area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances or heating ducts, and out of the
direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature
before placing in the freezer. Overloading
the freezer forces the compressor to run
longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may
lose quality, or spoil.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe
containers dry before placing them in the
freezer. This cuts down on frost build-up
inside the freezer.
Freezer storage bin should not be lined with
aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation,
making the freezer less efficient.
Organize and label food to reduce door
openings and extended searches. Remove
as many items as needed at one time, and
close the door as soon as possible.
Try not to open the door too often, especially
when the weather is wet and hot. Once you
open the door, mind to close it as soon as
possible.
Every now and then check if the appliance is
sufficiently ventilated (adequate air
circulation behind the appliance).
Cleaning Your Freezer
Upon installation of your new appliance, it is
recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly.
Turn the temperature control to "OFF",
unplug the freezer, remove the food and
storage basket.
Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth
containing a water and baking soda solution.
The solution should be about 2 tablespoons
of baking soda to a quart of water.
Wash the storage basket with a mild
detergent solution.
Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean
to keep the unit running efficiently.
The outside of the freezer should be cleaned
with mild detergent and warm water.
Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
The condenser coils should be vacuumed
when they are dusty or dirty.
It is recommended that the unit be cleaned
each time it is defrosted to help keep the unit
odor free and running efficiently.
Vacation Time
Remove all the food.
Unplug the freezer.
Clean the freezer.
Leave the door open slightly to avoid
possible formation of condensation, mold, or
odors.
Use extreme caution in the case of children.
The unit should not be accessible to child's
play.
Short vacations: Leave the freezer operating
during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be
used for several months, remove all food and
unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the
interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold
growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking
it open if necessary or have the door
removed.
The electrical safety of the appliance can
only be guaranteed if the product is connected
to an approved earth connection.
