How to make ice cubes
To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice
cube tray with water and put it to the
frozen food compartment. Wetting the
bottom of the tray and setting thermostat-
ic control knob to maximum position can
shorten preparing time. After finishing do
not forget to reset the thermostatic con-
trol to the suitable position.
Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the
tray under running water then twist or hit
it. If the ice tray freezes to the compart-
ment, avoid using metal tools or knife to
take it out as the cooling system can be
damaged.
It is safe to store quick-frozen,
frozen foods only if they have not
dissolved even for a short time until plac-
ing them into the freezer.
If the deep-frozen food has already dis-
solved, refreezing is not recommended, it
has to be used up as soon as possible.
Some useful information and
advice
The variable shelves are worth paying
attention to, which increases the
usability of the fresh food compart-
ment considerably. Rearranging the
shelves is also possible when the door
is open at an angle of 90°.
After opening and closing the door of
freezer vacuum will rise inside the
appliance because of the low temper-
ature. So wait 2-3 minutes after clos-
ing the door - if you want to open it
again - while inner pressure equalises.
Take care of operating the freezer at a
position of thermostatic control so that
the inside temperature can never go
above -18 °C, since temperature high-
er than this can deteriorate frozen
foods.
How to save energy
The colder the ambient temperature of
the appliance is the less energy it
uses.
Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny
place and near anything that gives off
heat.
Be sure that the condenser and the
compressor are well ventilated. Do not
cover the sections where ventilation is.
Wrap products in tightly closing dishes
or cling film to avoid building up
unnecessary frost.
Do not leave the door open longer
than necessary and avoid unneces-
sary openings.
Put foods into the appliance only in a
closed dish.
Put warm foods into the appliance only
when they are at room temperature.
Keep the condenser clean.
Hints and ideas
In this chapter practical hints and ideas
are given about how to use the appliance
to reach maximum energy saving and
there is environmental information about
the appliance as well.
It is practical to make sure of faultless
operation of the appliance daily so as
to notice possible failure in time and
prevent deterioration of frozen foods.
