MAKING ICE CUBES

Fill the ice cube tray (not supplied) with ¾ full of drinking water and place in the freezer.
If the ice cube tray is stuck to the freezer, loosen with a blunt tool only.
To loosen the ice cubes, twist the ice cube tray slightly or hold briefly under flowing water.

DEFROSTING

The freezer shall be defrosted periodically or when the thickness of the frost is more than 3 mm.
1. Disconnect the appliance from the mains supply.
2. Remove all the frozen food and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep them cold.
An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during defrosting will shorten the storage life.
3. Remove the drain plug located at the bottom inside the freezer and then remove the drain cover at the front of the freezer.
4. After defrosting is finished, clean the inside of the appliance.
5. Reconnect the appliance to the mains socket and refit the drain plug and cover in place.
6. Place the food back into the freezer and set the temperature control knob to the desired setting.

TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

For the most energy efficient use of your appliance:
Ensure your appliance has adequate ventilation as recommended in the installation instructions.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.
Keep door openings to a minimum.
Open the appliance as briefly as possible.
Regularly defrost the freezer to remove the layer of frost.
Ensure that the freezer door is always closed properly.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
2. Take out the food and store in a cool location.
3. Wait until the layer of frost has thawed.
4. Clean the appliance with a soft cloth, warm water and detergent.
5. Wipe the door seal with clear water only and then wipe dry thoroughly.
