USE

This cabinet is a combined freezer/freezer whereby both freezer/freezer
compartments are operated by the same compressor. This means that if the
fridge compartment becomes overloads it will result in even colder temperatures
in the freezer.
Position and clean the cabinet as explained in the section "Installation".
Check that the drain hose at the rear
of the cabinet discharges into the drip
tray.

Before in sertin g th e power plu g in to th e
outlet and switching on the cabinet for
the first time, leave it standing upright
for about 2 hours. Otherwise the
compressor may su stain damage. Th i s
time will allow the oil sufficient time to
return to the compressor .

Practical advice on freezing

· When freezing products, use the
top shelves.

· Do not cover the air hole on the
rear wall.

· Spread out the products as much
as possible to allow air to circulate
between them.

11

· Do not place food products which
are to be frozen directly against other
frozen food. The heat from the
unfrozen food may cause the frozen
food to thaw on the surface.

· Once frozen, re-arrange the
products and put them as close as
possible to each other. The food will
then stay cold longer in the event of a
power failure.

· Do not freeze too much food at the
same time. The freezing capacity of
the unit is indicated in the
specifications section.

Check that the cabinet is operating
and keeps the set temperature one
day after switching it on for the first
time. Only after then should the freezer
be used to freeze fresh foodstuff.

Thawing
It is best to thaw foods in refrigerator.

Place the foodstuff on a plate with a
raised edge to prevent liquids from
running out. Easily thawed foods can
be placed in room temperature or in
cold water. When using a microwave
oven to thaw foodstuff, follow the
manufacturer's instructions.

Cabinet interior
The shelves and door compartments

are removable and can easily be
re-arranged.

Certain shelves must be lifted up by
the rear edge to enable them to be
removed.

Suitable storage periods
Food purchased in frozen condition:

Follow the advice on the maximum
storage period indicated on the
packaging.
Fresh food frozen at home:
Fatty and salty food should not be kept
frozen for more than three months.
Cooked food and low-fat food may be
kept up to about six months. Lean
food and berries can be kept for
approximately one year.

The lower door compartment and the
glass shelf above the vegetable drawer
must not be moved. They are fitted to
ensure air circulation inside the
cabinet.
Shelves with a raised edge should be
placed with the raised edge facing the
rear wall of the cabinet, and thus
prevent food products from touching
the cooling plate.

12

The vegetable drawer has two
moveable partitions with five different
choices in order to separate different
vegetables.

The vegetable drawer has a removable
ventilation edging to in crease the
circulation of air and reduce the risk of
condensation.

Freezer drawers
The freezer drawers ensure that it is
quick and easy to find the food
package you want. To gain space, the
drawers can be removed and the
products can be put directly on the
shelves. On all shelves, except the top
shelf, it is possible to place products
that protrude 20 mm from the front
edge. This allows maximum use of the
available space.
Do not remove the bottom drawer. It is
required to assure proper air
circulation.

the freezer. Remove the shelf when
large food products need to be frozen.

Freezer tray
Use the freezer tray to freeze berries
and vegetables. After about 4 hours
the food will be thoroughly frozen and
can then be packaged normally. F ood
that is frozen in this way will not stick
together, enabling you to use only the
amount required.

Ice cubes
Fill the ice tray to max. 3/4 since water
expands as it freezes. Release the ice
cubes by twisting the ice tray.
If ice cubes are kept for a long time,
they will dry out and the taste is
affected. Thus, throw away old ice
cubes and prepare new ones when
needed.

Removable shelves
There are the removable shelves inside

HINT and TIPS

Saving energy

· Pay careful attention to where the
cabinet is placed. See the section
"Installation". When installed correctly,
the cabinet will consume less energy.

· Try to avoid keeping the door open
for long periods, or opening the door
too frequently as warm air will enter the
cabinet, and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.

· Ensure there are no obstructions
preventing the door from closing
properly.

· Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This
will ensure safer defrosting of foods
and reduce the work of the
refrigeration unit

· It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the
appliance with a duster or vacuum
cleaner.

· Always l eave warm food to cool
down to room temperature before
placing in the fridge.

· Food which is to be frozen (when
cool) should be placed in the fridge
before being transfered to the freezer.

· Avoid unnecessary frosting in the
cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into
airtight packages before placing them
in the freezer.

· Carefully follow the advice on freezing
products in the section "Using the
freezer". This will prevent wasting
energy.

· Do not set the temperature too low in
the freezer. A suitable temperature is in
the range of -18°C to -20°C .

· Make sure the door gasket is
complete and always clean.

Food Storage

· To obtain the best results from your

appliance, neither hot foods nor liquids
which may evaporate, should be
placed in the larder compartment.

· Avoid buying frozen food if you can

not store it straight away. The use of
an in sulated container is advisable.
When you arrive home place the
frozen food in the freezer immediately.

· Ensure that food placed in the freezer

is dated and labelled and used in date
order to ensure that food is consumed
at its best. Remove suspect food from
you refrigerator and clean, refer to
cleaning and maintenance.

Protect the environment

· Han d over the cabinet packaging
and discarded fridges and freezers to a
recycling station. Contact your local
council or Environmental Health office
for more information.

· Keep foodstuff in re-usable
containers. Cut down on disposable
material as much as possible.

· When cleaning the cabinet, use a
mild washing-up detergent.

· Follow the advice in the section
"Saving energy"

· The door gasket and coolant used in
this cabinet will not harm the ozone
layer.

· All parts in the packaging can be
recycled.

· The cabinet has been designed for
easy dismantling and subsequent
recycling.

When moving the cabinet, lift it by the
front edge to avoid scratching the floor.

Lighting

The light is switched on automatically
when the door is opened.

Defrosting the fridge

The fridge is defrosted automatically
every time the compressor stops. Frost
formation can be prevented by:

· not putting warm foodstuff inside
the cabinet.

· avoiding frequently opening the
door or keeping it open too long.

Defrosting the freezer

Defrosting is not necessary.
Every 24 hours, the evaporator is
defrosted automatically.

Never use a hair drier or other heating

appliances to speed up defrosting.
Excessive heat may damage the
plastic interior, and humidity could
enter the electric appliance making it
live.

When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
Empty all foods and clean the
appliance, leaving the doors ajar to
prevent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet is to be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a while
