• Clean the condenser with a broom at least twice a year. This will help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity.

!! The power supply must be disconnected.

Defrosting Your Freezer

• Small amounts of frost will accumulate inside the freezer, depending upon the length of time for which the door is left open or the amount of moisture introduced. It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form in places where it will affect the close fitting of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, encouraging continuous running of the compressor. Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor. It is not necessary to switch off the appliance for the removal of thin frost.
• For the removal of heavy ice deposits, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and empty the contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep cold. Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when the freezer is nearly empty and should be carried out as quickly as possible to prevent undue increase in temperature of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. An increase in temperature of frozen food during defrosting will shorten the storage life. If the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area they should keep for several hours.
• Dry the inside of the compartment with a sponge or a clean cloth.
• To accelerate the defrosting process, place one or more bowls of warm water in the freezer compartment.
• Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages have thawed out they should be eaten within 24 hours, or be cooked and re-frozen.
• After defrosting has finished, clean the inside of the appliance with a solution of warm water with a little bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the same way and reassemble. Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting number 3 before introducing the food back into the freezer.

TRANSPORTATION AND CHANGING OF INSTALLATION POSITION

Transportation and changing of Installation position

• The original packages and foamed polystyrene (PS) can be retained if required.
• During transportation, the appliance should be secured with a wide string or a strong rope.

Tips for saving energy

1. Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3. Cover drinks or other liquids when placing them in the appliance. Otherwise humidity increases in the appliance. Therefore, the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and other liquids helps to preserve smell and taste.
4. Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
5. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (crisper, chiller ...etc) closed.
6. Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
7. It is possible to store more food by removing the freezer shelf. Energy consumption is declared with maximum load and without the freezer shelf.
