decomposition by the micro-organisms commences and
the storage life of the food products is reduced.
For this reason fully or partly defrosted food is only to be
refrozen if it has been processed to a ready-to-eat
meal (cooking or roasting). The high cooking temperatures
will ensure that most micro-organisms will be destroyed.
The higher the setting at the temperature controller, the
lower the temperature in the appliance.
A middle setting of the temperature controller is sufficient
for normal use of the appliance and the
short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment.
We recommend a setting between middle and maximum
for normal use and for longer-term storage of food in
the freezer compartment.
Attention!
Do not store cans and bottles of beverages containing
carbon dioxide in the freezer compartment.
The contents expand on being frozen and can
burst the container. Risk of injury and damage!
Bottles placed in the freezer compartment for
rapid cooling must be taken out after one hour at the
most. The bottles can burst. Risk of injury and damage!
Before deep frozen ice creams and ice lollies
are eaten, they should be left a few minutes after
removal from the appliance. This is to prevent injury to
the lips and tongus (torn skin). For the same
reason, avoid contact between wet hands and
the ice covered internal walls.
Important information
Store only properly packed deep frozen food in
the freezing compartment.
When storing ready-to-eat deep frozen food, note the
use-by date stated by the producer.
Remember that only good quality fresh food is suitable
for freezing.
Freeze fresh food in suitably sized portions.
Never freeze more than 1-2 kg of food.
Be sure to use suitable packing materials
(reusable plastic film, aluminium foil, freezing containers).
Press all the air from the packet.
Seal the packets with elastic bands, plastic
clips, string or cold-resistant adhesive tape.
Plastic film bags and tubes can also be sealed with
a film welding appliance.
Mark the sealed packet with contents, weight and date
of freezing.
Place the produce with its broad surface on the
floor of the freezer compartments so that that it
freezes right through in the shortest possible time.
To prevent them freezing together make
sure that packets are dry before placing in the
compartment. To prevent partial defrosting place food
to be frozen so that it is not in contact with food already
frozen.
Do not refreeze fully or partly defrosted food unless
it is to be processed to a ready-to-eat meal (cooking
or roasting).
Do not consume food which has been stored
beyond its use-by date. This can result in food
poisoning.
8 Preparing ice cubes, ice cream, sorbets etc.
Ice cubes: Three-quarters fill the ice cube tray
with water and place this on the floor of
the freezer compartment. The ice cubes can
easily be removed from the tray by placing the tray
briefly under running water..
Ice cream: Use an ice cube tray without
the separator. lce cream containing fat (cream)
will take longer to freeze than water-based ice
cream. The ice cream can be easily removed from
the tray by placing the tray briefly under running water.
9 Placing the appliance out of service
If the appliance is to be placed out of service for a
long period, turn the temperature controller to 0" or
“ OFF“ and clean the appliance as described in the
chapter "Cleaning". To prevent odoure and the formation
of mould, leave the appliance door open all the while it is
not in use.
10 Cleaning and care
Before cleaning it is important to pull out the mains
connector plug or unscrew/ trip the line-side fuse.
For the upkeep of the external appearance of your fridge
/ freezer, clean the outside every now and again
with furniture polish or with an enamel protecting
product (never, on any account use it inside). Clean the
door seal with warm water now and again but do
not use any cleaning products. Do not apply any oil or
grease to the door seal.
Clean the inside of the appliance at regular intervals.
You are recommended to clean the
fridge compartment at least once per month and the
freezer compartment after each defrosting.
Remove the produce from both compartments
and store in a cool place.
Take out all the removable parts from the appliance.
The various parts inside the fridge / freeaer
are generally not suitable for dishwashers. These
should be washed by hand with warm water
and a little washing-up liquid. Never use the cleaning
agent neat and on no account use any abrasive
or acid, i.e. chemical cleaning products. A general all
purpose Ph neutral cleaning agent is recommended.
The use of steam cleaning appliances is
extremely dangerous and is therefore strictly
forbidden.
Wipe the interiors and accessories with clean water
and dry everything with a cloth. Then leave
the appliance to air for 3-4 minutes.
Do not damage or remove the rating plate from
the inside of the appliance - it is important for the
after- sales service and for the subsequent disposal.
Take care that no cleaning water comes into
contact with current-carrying parts inside the appliance.
If the rear of the appliance is fitted with a
heat exchanger, - also known as a
condenser - periodically remove any
