-For freezing the fresh food please use the supplied baskets of the appliance.

-Do not place into the freezer a too large quantity of food at a time. The quality of the food is best kept if they are deeply frozen as quickly as possible.

In order to reduce the freezing time, push the button for „fast freeze”.

-The fresh food must not come into contact with the food already frozen.

-The frozen food you have bought can be placed into the freezer without having to adjust the thermostat.

-If the freezing date is not mentioned on the packing, please take into consideration a period of max. 3 months, as a general guide.

-The food, even partially defrosted, cannot be frozen again, it must be consumed immediately or cooked and then refrozen.

-The fizzy drinks will not be kept in the freezer.

-In case of a power failure, do not open the door of the appliance. The frozen food will not be affected if the failure lasts less than 36 hours.

Defrosting of the appliance

￿We advise you to defrost the freezer at least twice a year or when the ice layer has an excessive thickness.

￿The ice build-up is a normal phenomenon.

￿The quantity and the rapidity of ice build- up depends on the ambient conditions and on the frequency of the door opening.

￿We advise you to defrost the appliance when the quantity of frozen food is the least.

￿Before defrosting, adjust the thermostat knob to a higher position so that the food stores more cold.

- Unplug the appliance.

- Take out the frozen food, wrap it in several sheets of paper and put them in refrigerator or a cool place.

Take the separator panel and put it under the freezer in the direction of the dripping tube. Take out the obstructing plug. The water which results will be collected in the special tray (separator panel). After the melting of the ice and the run-off of the water please wipe with a cloth or with a sponge, then dry well. Put the obstruction plug back in its place (Item 6). For a fast thaw please leave the door open.

Do not use sharp metal objects to remove the ice.

Do not use hairdriers or other electric heating appliances for defrosting.
