HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Energy saving tips
We recommend that you follow the tips below to save energy.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods.
• Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (Direct sunlight, electric
oven or cooker etc.)
• Don`t set the temperature colder than necessary.
• Don`t store warm food or evaporating liguid in the appliance.
• Place the appliance in a well ventilated, humidity free room. Please refer to
Instaling your new appliance chapter
• If the diagram shows the correct combination for the drawers, crisper and
shelves, do not adjust the combination as this designed to be the most energy
e cient confi guration.
Hints for refrigeration
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator or freezer, the internal
temperature will increase resulting in the compressor having to work harder
and will consume more energy.
• Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong fl avor.
• Place food properly so that air can circulate freely around it.
• Meat (All Types) Wrap in polythene food: wrap and place on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer. Always follow food storage times and use by
dates suggested by manufacturers.
• Cooked food, cold dishes, etc.: They should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: They should be stored in the special drawer provided.
• Butter and cheese: Should be wrapped in airtight foil or plastic fi lm wrap.
• Milk bottles: Should have a lid and be stored in the door racks.
24
Hints for freezing
• When fi rst staring-up or after a period out of use. Before putting the food in
the compartment, let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to rapidly and completely frozen
and to make it possible to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
• ‘Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene (plastic) and make sure
that the packages are airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food that is already frozen, thus
avoiding a rise in the temperature of latter.
• Iced products, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer
compartment can possibly cause skin to become freezer burnt.
• It is recommended to label and date each frozen package in order to keep
track of the storage time.
Hints for the storage of frozen food
• Make sure that commercially frozen food was stored by the retailer.
• Once defrosted, foods deteriorate rapidly and can not be re-frozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.
Note: If the appliance contains related accessories and functions.
25
CLEANING AND CARE
For hygienic reasons, the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should
be cleaned regularly. The appliance should be cleaned and maintained at least
every two months.
Warning!
The appliance should not be connected to the main power supply during
cleaning. Before cleaning, switch the appliance o and remove the plug from the
main power supply, switch o , or shut o the circuit breaker of fuse.
Notice!
• Remove the food from the appliance before cleaning. Store them in a cool
place and keep well covered.
• Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in
electrical components.
• Hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
• Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or
the juice from an orange peel, butyric acid, or cleansers that contain acetic
acid.
• Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
• Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm
water. Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used.
• After cleaning, wipe with fresh water and a clean dish cloth.
• Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption; clean
the condenser at the back of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner.(Only for the outside-condenser product)
• Check the water drain hole on the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment.
• Clear a blocked drain hole with the aid of something like soft green peg, an be
careful not to create any damage to the cabinet by sharp objects.
After everything is dry, the appliance back into service.
Defrosting
Defrosting in the fresh food storage compartment
• Water from the defrosting option will automatically be drained into a drip tray
through a drain pipe at the back of the appliance.
Defrosting in the frozen food storage compartment
• Defrosting in the freezer chamber is operated manually. Before defrosting, take
the foot out.
• Tale the ice tray and drawers out or put them into the fresh food compartment
temporarily.
• Set the knob of the temperature regulator to the
(where the compressor will
stop working) and leave the door of the refrigerator open until ice and frost
dissolve thoroughly and accumulate at the bottom of the freezer chamber.
Wipe out the water with soft cloth.
26
• In order to speed up the process of defrosting, you may put a bowl of warm
water (about 50°C) into the freezer chamber and scrape away the ice and
frost with a defrosting spatula. After doing so, be sure to set the knob of the
temperature regulator to the original position.
• It is not advisable to heat the freezer chamber directly with hot water or hair
dryer while defrosting to avoid deformation of the inner case.
• It is also not advisable to scrape o ice and frost or separate foods from the
containers which have been congealed together with the food with sharp tools
or wooden bars, so as not to damage the inner casing or the surface of the
evaporator.
Warning! To switch o the appliance before defrosting, turn the temperature
regulator to the
position.
Notice! The appliance should be defrosted at least once a month. During its
usage, if the door has been used in extreme humidity, we advise the user to
defrost every two weeks.
Taking the appliance out of service
• Empty the appliance.
• Pull out the power plug.
• Clean thoroughly (see section: Cleaning and Care).
• Leave the door open to prevent odors.
