[. . . ] Avoid stacking large amounts of warm food on top of already cold food, as this will raise the temperature of the food previously stored in the fresh box. Do not use the fresh box, as a zone for rapid cooling at it is not designed for this. Freezer Compartment The freezer will store frozen food at -18°C or colder allowing for long-term frozen food storage and freezing of fresh food. Freezing Fresh Food The maximum quantity of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate and in the technical specifications section of this instruction book. When freezing fresh foods, press the fast freeze button 3 hours before placing the food into the freezer compartment. 7 Food Storage Energy Saving Advice · Do not install the cabinet close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or radiator. Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the air openings of the cabinet are not obstructed. Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages before placing them in the freezer. Always leave warm food to cool down to room temperature before placing in the fridge or freezer. Food that is to be frozen (when cool) should be placed in the fridge before being transferred to the freezer. This will ensure safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of the refrigeration unit. Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods, or opening the door too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing properly. To obtain the best results from your appliance, neither hot foods nor liquids, which may evaporate should be placed in the larder compartment. When you arrive home place the frozen food in the freezer immediately. 10). External Cleaning Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do not use abrasive products. There may be sharp edges on the underside of the product so care should be taken when cleaning. Ensure the vents at the back of the appliance are clear of dust and debris etc. Internal Cleaning Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0. 5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or alcohol. Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and free from debris. 1 halogen bulb When the appliance is not in use When the appliance is not in use for long periods, disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of the food and clean the inside of the appliance. Switch off the appliance and leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells. Cleaning the Condenser Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption.
