To Defrost The Freezer - AYA ACA175WA Instructions D'utilisation

To defrost the freezer

1.Wrap any food in layers of newspaper or blankets.
2.Switch the appliance off at the wall socket and remove the plug.
3.Open the freezer door.
4.Place a suitable container to collect the water from the thawing frost.
5.After defrosting, clean and dry the interior.
6.Switch the appliance on and replace any frozen food.
Defrosting can be speeded up by putting bowls of hot (not boiling) water in the freezer
and loosening the frost with a suitable plastic scraper.
If the temperature of frozen food is allowed to rise during defrosting, its storage life may
be shortened.
Warning!
The appliance may not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical
shock! Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or
switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical
components, danger of electrical shock! Hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic
parts. The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.
Important!
Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the juice
from orange peel, butyric acid, cleanser that contain acetic acid. Do not allow such
substances to come into contact with appliance parts. Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
Remove the food from the freezer, and store it in a cool place, well covered. Switch the
appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit
breaker or fuse. Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and
lukewarm water. Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used. After
cleaning wipe it with fresh water and rub dry. Accumulation of dust at the condenser
increases energy consumption. For this reason carefully clean the condenser at the back
of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. Check the water drain
hole on the rear wall of the freezer. Clear a blocked drain hole. After everything is dry
place appliance back into service.
Energy Saving tips
Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other sources of warmth. High
ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent operation of the compressor. Ensure
sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base and at the back wall of the
appliance. Never cover air vent openings. Do not place warm food into the appliance.
Allow warm food to cool first. Do not set temperature any colder than necessary. Keep the
emitting condenser-the metal grille on the rear wall of your appliance from the heat and
always clean.
