EXTERNAL CLEANING
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT
use abrasive products.
WHEN NOT IN USE
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Remove all goods from the freezer.
Clean the freezer as described above.
Leave the lid slightly open.
If you are still unable to solve the problem, summon the
assistance of authorised service staff.
Do not take any other steps. Incorrect procedure may
cause personal injury or lead to additional defects.
It is quite normal for the freezer to seem warm on the
outside occasionally, owing to the heat generated by the
freezing process. This heat also helps to prevent the
formation of moisture on the outside of the appliance
which could cause rust.
If the freezer has been switched off briefly, the
compressor may not start immediately when the current
is re-connected. This is quite normal.
IN THE CASE OF A POWER FAILURE OR
BREAKDOWN
The hold-over period mentioned in the "Technical
Specification" section of this book refers to an estimated
time the freezer temperature will take to rise to an
unacceptable level for keeping frozen foods.
Providing the period of power failure or breakdown does
not exceed the hold-over period there will be no risk of
damage to the frozen food, providing you do not open the
lid during this period.
If the freezer is only half full or the lid is opened this will
reduce the hold-over time.
After the breakdown period you are recommended to
check the condition of food to ensure it has not started to
thaw. Frozen food must NOT be re-frozen once it has
thawed out. The following guidelines should assist you.
Ice cream: Once thawed should be
discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: If soft should be cooked and used
up.
Breads & Cakes: Can be re-frozen without danger.
Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and used
up quickly.
Cooked Dishes: ie. casseroles should be
refrigerated and used up.
Small Joints: Should be cooked and can then
be re-frozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: Should also be cooked and re-
frozen as a cooked dish.
