Never
forget:
When
you
freeze
fresh
foods
with
a
‘use
by
/best
before/best
by/’
date,
you
must
freeze
them
before
this
date
expires.
Check
that
the
food
was
not
already
frozen.
Indeed,
frozen
food
that
has
thawed
completely
must
not
be
refrozen.
Once
defrosted,
food
should
be
consumed
quickly.
MAKING
ICE
CUBES
Fill
the
ice
cube
tray
(not
supplied)
with
¾
full
of
drinking
water
and
place
in
the
freezer.
If
the
ice
cube
tray
is
stuck
to
the
ice
box,
loosen
with
a
blunt
tool
only.
To
loosen
the
ice
cubes,
twist
the
ice
cube
tray
slightly
or
hold
briefly
under
flowing
water.
DEFROSTING
The
freezer
shall
be
defrosted
periodically
or
when
the
thickness
of
the
frost
is
more
than
3
mm.
1. Disconnect
the
appliance
from
the
mains
supply.
2. Remove
all
the
frozen
food
and
wrap
in
thick
blankets
or
layers
of
paper
to
keep
them
cold.
An
increase
in
temperature
of
frozen
food
packages
during
defrosting
will
shorten
the
storage
life.
3. Remove
the
drain
cover
located
at
the
bottom
of
the
freezer
then
remove
the
water
conduit
at
the
rear
of
the
freezer.
4. After
defrosting
is
finished,
clean
the
inside
of
the
appliance.
5. Reconnect
the
appliance
to
the
mains
supply
and
refit
the
drain
cover
and
water
conduit
in
place.
6. Place
the
food
back
into
the
freezer
and
set
the
temperature
control
knob
to
the
desired
setting.
TIPS
FOR
SAVING
ENERGY
For
the
most
energy
efficient
use
of
your
appliance:
Ensure
your
appliance
has
adequate
ventilation
as
recommended
in
the
installation
instructions.
Allow
warm
food
and
drinks
to
cool
down
before
placing
in
the
appliance.
Keep
door
openings
to
a
minimum.
Open
the
appliance
as
briefly
as
possible.
Regularly
defrost
the
freezer
to
remove
the
layer
of
frost.
Ensure
that
the
freezer
door
is
always
closed
properly.
