Using Your Appliance
Tips for using this appliance
Before storing cooked foods in the refrigerator, allow them to cool to room
temperature.
To maintain adequate air circulation, do not over fill the appliance. If there is too
much food inside, the compressor does not work as effectively.
Do not open the door any more than necessary - this will keep the temperature
as cold as possible inside.
When storing frozen food in the freezer, make sure that you follow the food
manufacturers guidelines.
Ices and water ices should not be consumed straight from the freezer - this can
cause ice burns to the tongue and hands.
Never touch the inside of the appliance, or any frozen items with wet hands. This
can cause injury to your hands if they stick to cold surfaces.
Wrap or cover foods well before storing. Always make sure that any packaging is
air tight and suitable for use inside a fridge or freezer.
Cooked meats and raw meats should be stored on separate shelves, and raw
meat should not be allowed to drip onto other foods. Food which is to be frozen
should not be in direct contact with already frozen food.
You may hear gurgling noises or a humming sound while the appliance is in use
and this is perfectly normal when the compressor is running and the coolant is
moving through the system.
A clicking sound may be heard, this is the thermostat and is normal.
This appliance is designed to operate in an ambient temperature between 16 and
38 ˚C.
Effervescent (fizzy) drinks should not be stored in the freezer or low temperature
compartments.
Do not exceed the storage times recommended by the food manufacturer and
always check expiry dates.
Smaller portions of fresh food freeze quicker than large portions. Divide large
portions into smaller ones. This helps to preserve the nutrients and quality of the
food.
Always allow warm food to cool down before freezing it, preferably to room
temperature.
Before you store large amounts of food in the freezer, adjust the thermostat to
the maximum (coldest) setting while the appliance freezes the food. After 24
hours, re-set the thermostat to the previous setting.
Only thaw the amount of food you need, once food has been thawed cook it
immediately.
