Saving energy
• Locate the freezer in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances
and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the freezer. Overloading
the freezer forces the compressor to run longer.
• Wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in the freezer. This
cuts down on frost build-up inside the unit.
• Do not line the freezer storage drawers with aluminium foil, wax paper or paper
towelling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.
• Do not pack food packages close together as this prevents air circulating.
• Organise and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as
many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
• Do not open the freezer door unnecessarily or for too long, especially during a power
failure.
• Do not run the appliance permanently on the COLDEST temperature setting. The
COLDEST setting is recommended on very hot days, or when you have added a large
quantity of fresh food.
Power failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature
inside your freezer, if you minimise the number of times the door is opened. However, if
the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take proper steps to
protect your food.
Do not refreeze frozen food without checking its condition first.
If in doubt, discard the food. Do not refreeze food that has thawed completely.
Going away?
Short vacation: Leave the freezer operating during vacations of less than a month.
Long vacation: If you are not going to use the freezer for longer periods, remove all
food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour
and mould growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open, if necessary. (Restrict
children’s access to the room with the open freezer to avoid creating a child entrapment
risk.)
Moving the freezer
Remove all food from inside the freezer, securely tape down the drawers and tape the door
shut. Turn the levelling feet up to the base to avoid damage.
Protect the outside of the unit with a blanket or similar soft material and make sure the
freezer stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
Storage
If the freezer is not going to be used for an extended period of time, store the unplugged,
cleaned appliance safely in the original packaging in a dry location, out of children’s reach.
