MAINTENANCE

FREEZER DEFROSTING

Note: Care must be taken when performing the following procedure.

• The appliance is frost free, so there shouldn't be any requirement to defrost the freezer.
  However, in the unlikely event the appliance does need defrosting please follow the below steps:
• Try to use as much as possible of the food in the freezer, before defrosting.
  However, any food that is left, wrap in newspaper and place aside until ready to place back after cleaning.
• Switch the appliance off t the wall socket and remove the plug.
• Open the freezer door.
• Place a suitable container to collect the water created from the defrosted ice.
• After defrosting, clean and dry the interior.
• Switch the appliance on and replace any frozen food.

Defrosting can be accelerated by putting bowls of hot (not boiling) water in the freezer and loosening the frost with a suitable plastic scraper.

NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE

You may notice some rather unusual noises. The noises are caused by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your fridge.

PROLONGED OFF PERIODS

If the appliance is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as follows:

1. Disconnect from the mains supply.
2. Clean and dry the inside (see 'Cleaning and maintenance').
3. Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from building up while the appliance is not in use.

NOTES FOR USE

Do clean and defrost your appliance regularly.

Do check contents of the compartments every so often.

Do store commercially prepared food in accordance with the instructions given on the packets.

Do choose high quality fresh food and be sure it is thoroughly clean before freezing it.

Do wrap all food in food quality polythene bags or air tight containers and make sure any air is excluded.

Do Not store poisonous or any dangerous substances in your freezer. It is designed for the freezing of edible foodstuffs only.

Do Not consume food which has been frozen for an excessive length of time.

Do Not leave the door open for long periods, as this will make the appliance more costly to run and cause excessive ice formation.

Do Not use sharp objects such as knives to remove the ice from the appliance.

Only use a plastic scraper.

Do Not put hot food into the appliance. Let it cool down to room temperature.

Do Not put liquid-fi led bottles or sealed cans containing carbonated liquids into the freezer as they may burst.

2. The bulb is a direct current 12V LED module and in the unlikely event it does fail then it will need to be replaced by a qualifies engineer.

CLEANING

1. Unplug the appliance.
2. Remove all substances.
3. Clean the inside and outside walls with a clean sponge or soft cloth using warm water or 1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to 1.2 liters of water.
4. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. If the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time then it is recommended to remove all the food stuff, clean the inside of the appliance and leave the door open to allow the air to circulate thus avoiding unpleasant odors.

ENERGY SAVING ADVICE

• Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or radiator.
• Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the air vents are clear.
• Try to avoid keeping the doors open for a long time, as warm air will enter the cabinet and may cause a build-up of ice as well as affecting the energy consumption. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the doors from closing properly.
• Ensure that the door seals are clean and there are no tears or splits.
• Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a short shelf-life, such as cooked meats), in the coldest part of the fridge. e Salad Crisper Box is the warmest part of your fridge and should be used for vegetables, salads and fruits etc.
• Do not overload the appliance: the cooling air that circulates and keeps the appliance cold gets blocked, and pockets of warm air form.
• Do not put hot food into the fridge or freezer - let it cool down first.
