STARTING UP
Switch on your appliance at the mains and set
the control dial to the normal operational setting.
Both the green and red indicator lights will
illuminate.
When the red indicator light goes out. The
freezer is ready to be used for frozen food
storage. Do not load with fresh food at this stage.
See Freezing Fresh Food on page 11.
If during normal opration the control setting is
increased, the red indicator may come on, this
should be ignored as it will go out when the
freezer has reached its new temperature.
Important
If the temperature rises in frozen food because of:
*
A power cut
*
Not following the manufacturers
instructions
*
Defrosting
Then recommend storage life may be reduced
and storage times may not apply.
Frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be used immediately
or thrown away.
Alternatively if the food is uncooked and it has
not completely defrosted it can be cooked and
then re-frozen.
Defrosting
In the freezer compartment, frost accumulates on
the shelves during normal working and should
occasionally be removed with the plastic scraper
provided.
Heavy frosting (1/4" thick) will reduce the
freezers efficiency and therefore complete
defrosting should then be carried out, probably
at 6 month intervals depending on usage.
Preferably you should defrost the freezer
when there is little or no food in it.
1.
Any remaining frozen food should be
14
placed in another freezer, or wrapped in
blankets, or layers of paper and placed in
cardboard boxes, and store in a cool place.
2.
Switch off the wall socket and remove the
plug.
3.
Loosen the frost with the plastic scraper,
then place a suitable container under the
scraper to collect the defrost water.
(See Fig. 10).
4.
After defrosting, clean and dry the interior
of the appliance for instructions see page 20.
Then switch the appliance on, replace the
frozen food and close the door.
Important
Ensure that the scraper is kept in a safe place for
future defrosting.
Remember
If the temperature of frozen food is allowed to
rise during the defrosting period, its storage life
may be shortened.
