We advise not to place any items you have just taken out of the freezer straight into
your mouth (ice cream, ice cubes, etc.), they will be at a very low temperature and you
risk frostbite. Avoid touching frozen or deep-frozen food with wet hands; your skin may
stick to the food. We recommend that you only defrost food for immediate use.
6. CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
Defrosting
Defrost your freezer when frost is accumulated on the evaporator is about 2mm:
▪
Set the thermostat to "0" for defrosting.
▪
Unplug your appliance from the main power.
▪
Remove all contents from the appliance.
▪
Leave the appliance door open to allow melting of the ice.
▪
Remove large pieces of ice if necessary with dishcloth or something that will not
damage the walls.
▪
Do not use hot water or other electric heaters to melt the accumulated ice.
▪
After defrosting, remove the accumulated ice / water and try the appliance with a soft
cloth.
▪
Restart the unit according to the start instructions. Never use a knife or other sharp
instrument to scrape ice inside.
Cleaning the inside
After defrosting you should clean the appliance internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate
of soda. Then rinse with warm water using a damp sponge or cloth and wipe dry. Wash the
baskets in warm soapy water and ensure they are completely dry before replacing them
Cleaning the outside
Use standard non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water to clean the exterior.
The grille of the condenser at the back and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using
a soft brush attachment.
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of the appliance.
If you're going on vacation
If your appliance is not to be used for several months, remove all food, turn off and unplug the
appliance from the outlet. Clean and dry the inside and outside of the appliance thoroughly.
Also leave the door open, blocking it if necessary, to prevent condensation, odors, mold.
Moving the unit
After any movement, it must not be connected for 4 hours. This delay allows the coolant to be
adjusted.
Energy saving tips
▪
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
▪
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them inside. An overload will
force the compressor to run longer. Food that freezes too slowly may lose quality, or
deteriorate.
