Use
Freezer
•
•
•
The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods
should not be stored for more than three months after the purchase date.
•
Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the
food after thawing.
•
•
•
Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
Label the food before freezing with information including type of food and dates of storage and expiry.
Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is
required to prevent wastage.
•
•
Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment as they could explode.
Only open the door for as long as is necessary. Leaving the door open for long periods will affect the temperature
inside the appliance and waste energy.
•
Ensure all compartments are fully closed after use.

Super Freeze function
Your freezer is equipped with a super freeze function, which runs the compressor continuously. Super freeze should be used
when introducing large amounts of fresh food into the freezer.
To switch the super freeze function on, turn the thermostat dial fully clockwise to SF. When the super freeze function is no
longer required, turn the thermostat dial back to the required setting.
Defrosting the freezer
Do not use heaters or defrosting sprays in this appliance.
• Never use any metallic or sharp objects to remove the ice as this could damage the lining.
• The freezer compartment should be defrosted regularly to ensure the most efficient running of the freezer.
• Once the ice is more than 5mm thick, the freezer should be defrosted.
• First remove the freezer drawers.
• To speed up the process, place a bowl of warm water in the base of the freezer compartment.
Once defrosting is complete, dry the inside of the freezer compartment with a sponge or clean cloth.
The freezer should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Do not use abrasive products or
detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean the drawers separately by hand with soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.
Once cleaning is complete, then reconnect the power.
