Frequently Asked Questions - SZUF-211-WE3 Smith&Brown

What is the ideal temperature setting for the freezer?
The recommended temperature for a freezer is -18°C (0°F). This ensures food safety and preserves quality.
How often should I defrost the freezer?
You should defrost the freezer when the ice build-up reaches about 5 mm thickness. Typically, this is needed every 6-12 months depending on usage.
Can I change the door opening direction?
Yes, the door hinge is reversible. Refer to the user manual for step-by-step instructions on how to change the door swing.
What does the alarm sound mean?
The alarm indicates either the door has been left open or the internal temperature has risen too high. Check the door and ensure the freezer is not overloaded.
How do I clean the condenser coils?
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently remove dust from the coils located at the back or bottom of the freezer. Do this at least once a year.
Is it normal for the freezer to make noise?
Some noise is normal, such as a humming from the compressor or clicking from the thermostat. However, loud or unusual sounds may indicate a problem.
What is the storage time during a power failure?
The freezer can maintain a safe temperature for approximately 15 hours if kept closed. Avoid opening the door unnecessarily.
How much freezing capacity does the freezer have?
The maximum freezing capacity is 10 kg of fresh food per 24 hours. Do not exceed this to maintain performance.
Can I use an extension cord with this freezer?
It is not recommended. Plug the freezer directly into a grounded wall outlet to avoid voltage drop and safety hazards.

Positioning

Install this appliance at a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the rating plate of the appliance:

For refrigerating appliances with climate class:

—extended temperate: 'this refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 10 °C to 32 °C (SN);

—temperate: 'this refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 32 °C (N);

—subtropical: 'this refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 38 °C (ST);

—tropical: 'this refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 43 °C (T);

Location

The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc. Ensure that air can circulate freely around the back of the cabinet. To ensure best performance, if the appliance is positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the minimum distance between the top of the cabinet and the wall unit must be at least 50 mm. Ideally, however, the appliance should not be positioned below overhanging wall units. Accurate leveling is ensured by one or more adjustable feet at the base of the cabinet. This refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.

Smith&Brown SZUF-211-WE3 - Location - 1

Warning! It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply; the plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.

This refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance;

Electrical connection

Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate correspond to your domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power supply cable plug is provided with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power supply socket is not earthed, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance with current regulations, consulting a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not observed. This appliance complies with the E.E.C. Directives.

First use

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then dry thoroughly.

Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.

Temperature Setting

  • Plug on your appliance. The internal temperature is controlled by a thermostat. There are 3 settings MIN, NORMAL and MAX. MIN is warmest setting and MAX is coldest setting.
  • The appliance may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or if you open the door often.

Food Storage Advice

Smith&Brown SZUF-211-WE3 - Food Storage Advice - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a double-door refrigerator with multiple compartments and ventilation slots (no text or symbols)

- Freezer Compar

  • Place ice cream, frozen fruit, frozen baked food in top tray. This is the where the temperature is warmest.
  • Place frozen vegetables, chips in two middle drawers.
  • Place raw meat, poultry, fish in bottom drawers.

Freezing fresh food

  • The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
  • Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom compartment.
    • The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate.
    • The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the fridge compartment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer. In this case, cooking will take longer.

Ice-cube

This appliance may be equipped with one or more trays for the production of ice-cubes.

Helpful hints and tips

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints:

  • the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
    • the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
  • only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
  • prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required;
  • wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight;
  • do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter;
  • lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
  • water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
  • it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
  • it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.
  • Freeze meat, poultry and fish raw or pre-pared into portions suitable for at home and defrost them later in the fridge. Make sure that meat, for example, is not immersed in its own thawing liquid.
  • Freeze fresh and prepared food dry and unseasoned. Unsalted foods are more du-rable.
  • Allow prepared food to cool before freezing. This not only saves power, but also prevents excessive frost formation in the freezer.

Storing frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use before putting the product in the compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.

Important! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the power has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after cooked).

Smith&Brown SZUF-211-WE3 - Storing frozen food - 1

CAUTION

The appliance may not operate properly if the ambient temperature exceeds or falls below the specified temperature range for a prolonged period. The temperature may increase in the fridge and freezer compartments which may cause the foods stored within to spoil more quickly.

Always ensure the prescribed ambient temperature is maintained. This refrigerator is designed for use at ambient temperatures of +16 °C to +38 °C.
