Freezer compartment:

∙ The freezer compartment is designed for deep-freezing and

long-term storage of frozen food, and for making ice cubes.

∙ To ensure that nutritious elements such as vitamins are

not lost, fresh food should be deep-frozen right through as

quickly as possible. For this reason, prepared food should

be put in the quick-freeze compartment, spaced out in

one or two rows. The quick-freeze area inside the freezer

compartment is marked Fast Freeze, where we recommend

you ﬁ rst put the food to be frozen for quick-freezing, before

moving it to other compartments (as appropriate) after 24

hours.

∙ Avoid contact with food that has already been frozen.

∙ Caution: Do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity

per day. The product data sheet at the end of this manual

contains details of the maximum daily freezing capacity.

∙ For quick-freezing, set the temperature control to Max. After

24 hours, once the food is well frozen, the temperature

control can be set back to its original position.

∙ The time required to freeze food may be shortened by

dividing it into smaller portions.

∙ Suitable packaging materials for frozen food are transparent

(i.e. non-coloured) plastic wrap or bags, or aluminium foil.

The packaging materials should be well aired before use;

check that the package is air-tight before freezing the food.

We strongly recommend that you label every item stored in

the freezer with all relevant information such as type of food,

freezing date and use-by date.

∙ Do not attempt to deep-freeze carbonated beverages, warm

food or any kind of bottled liquids.

∙ Frozen food can be defrosted in the refrigerator. This way,

the food is defrosted at a slower rate, retaining its taste.

Furthermore, the frozen food helps to keep the temperature

inside the refrigerator at its intended level.

Use-by dates for frozen food are speciﬁ ed (in months) in

the table below.

∙ Do not exceed these storage times.

∙ However, always observe the manufacturer’s use-by dates

for the frozen food.

∙ If the unit remains switched off for an extended period (eg

during a power failure), the door should be kept closed;

this will help to maintain the lowest possible temperature

in the cabinet. The product data sheet contains detailed

information of the maximum safe storage time in case of

malfunction. Even a slight rise in the inside temperature will

shorten the storage life of the food.

Making ice cubes

A special ice-cube tray is provided for making ice cubes. Fill

the tray up to ¾ with drinking water and place it in the freezer

compartment for a few hours. The ice cubes are easier

to remove from the tray if the tray is left standing at room

temperature for 5 minutes.

De-frosting and cleaning

∙ Always remove the plug from the wall socket before

cleaning.

∙ Do not pour water over or inside the unit.

∙ For frequent cleaning we recommend the use of warm water

with some mild detergent. To prevent any unpleasant odour

within the refrigerator, it should be cleaned about once a

month.

∙ Any accessories should be cleaned separately with soapy

water. Do not put them in a dishwasher.

∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions or any

cleaning agents that contain alcohol.

∙ After cleaning, thoroughly clean all surfaces with fresh water

before wiping them completely dry.

∙ When re-inserting the plug into the wall socket ensure that

you have dry hands.

∙ Take care not to remove or damage the rating plate inside

the cabinet during cleaning.

De-frosting the freezer compartment

∙ The freezer cabinet does not require de-frosting, but only

proper cleaning. De-frosting is done automatically.

∙ If the door has been opened repeatedly, or left open too

long, or if warm food has been stored, a thin layer of ice may

still form on the inside. In this case, manual de-frosting is

required:

∙ Ensure that the plug has been removed from the wall

socket.

∙ Remove all food from the compartment and store it in a

cool location, eg together with pre-frozen freezer-packs

in a closed plastic container. Note that, even with a slight

increase in temperature, the storage life will be shortened

and the food should be used as soon as possible.

∙ Keep the door open. To accelerate defrosting, one or several

containers with hot (but not boiling) water may be placed

inside the freezer compartment.

∙ Warning: Do not use any external device or other means

(e.g. heaters or heating fans) to accelerate de-frosting.

∙ After cleaning, ensure that the freezer compartment is

thoroughly dried and set the temperature control to its

maximum position. After 24 hours, it may turned back to its

normal setting.

Defrosting the refrigerator cabinet :

∙ The refrigerator cabinet does not require de-frosting, but

only proper cleaning.

∙ The integral vapouriser is sealed in foam in the rear wall;

you may therefore notice a build-up of frost around the

rear area. This layer of frost will start melting when the

compressor is not working. Through a system of hoses,

the melt-water drains into the collection tray below the

compressor, where it will be absorbed into the surrounding
