And note that:
up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also make some (noise), whether the compressor is running or not. This is quite normal.
6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet is quite normal due to the manufacturing process used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the knob midway and monitor the temperature to ensure the appliance maintai ns desi re d st orag e te mper at ures (Se e section Temperature Control and Adjustment).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage temperature has been reached. We recommend checking the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see: Temperature Control and Adjustment).

Storing frozen food

Your freezer is suitable for the long-term stor ag e of commercially frozen foods and also can be used to freeze and store fresh food.
If there is a power failure, do not open the door.
Do not exceed

Warnings!

EN Instruction for use
Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 16 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.

Freezing fresh food

Please obs erv e the foll ow ing inst ruc tio ns t o obtain the best results. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h. Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration machine to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment. When freezing fresh food, keep the setting knob at medium position. Small quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb.) can be frozen without adjusting the temperature control knob. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.

Making ice cubes

Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it in the freezer. Loosen frozen trays with a spoon handle or a similar implement; never use sharp-edged obj ects suc h as k nives or forks.

Defrosting

A) Fridge compart ment

The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrost water runs to the drain tube via a collecti on cont ainer at the back of the a pplianc e (Item 6). Duri ng defr osti ng, wat er dropl ets may form at the b ack of the fridge compartment where a concealed evapor ator is locat ed. So me dropl ets may remain on the liner and refreeze when defrosting is co mpleted . Do not use poin ted or sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the droplets which have refrozen. If, at any time, th e defros t wat er does n ot drai n from the collection channel, check that no food particles have bl ocked t he drai n tube. The dr ain tube can be cleared with a pipe-cleaner or si milar implement. Check that the tube is permanently placed w ith its end in the collecting tray on the compress or to prev ent the water spilli ng on the electric installation or on the floor (Item 7).

B) Freezer compartment

The NO FROST type defrost is completely automatic. No intervention from your side is required. The water is collected on the compressor tray. Due the heat of the compressor the water is evaporated. Never u se hai r dryer s, elec tric al heat ers or ot her such electrical appliances for defrosting.
The fan inside the freez er compart ment ci rculates cold air. Never i nsert any object throug h the guard. Do not allow c hildren to pl ay w ith the freezer fan. Never st ore produc ts that con tain inflammable propellant g as (e.g . dispensers , spray cans etc.) or ex plosi ve substanc es. Don’t cover the shelves w ith any pr otectiv e materials , which may obstruct air circul ation. Do not allow children to play w ith the applianc e or tam per wi th the controls. Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure that y ou obtain t he best p ossible performance from y our appliance (Item 8).

Warning!

Your appliance is fitted with a circulating fan which is essential for the performance of the freezer. Please ensure the fan is not blocked (stopped) or impaired by food or packaging. Blocking (stopping) or impairing the fan can result in an increase of the internal freezer temperature (Thawing).
