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.

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
