Chest Freezer
Foods for long-term storage.
Raw meat, poultry, fish, frozen vegetables, chips, ice
cream, frozen fruit, frozen baked goods
.Use a polythene bag to store raw meat and place
on the lowest shelf. Avoid contact with cooked
food to prevent contamination. For safety
reason, store raw meat for two to three days only.
.Cooked dishes must be stored in airtight covered
containers.
.Food should cool to room temperature.
.Most vegetables should be blanched and chilled

.Do not leave frozen food at room temperature to
thaw. You could defrost the food by putting it in
the fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid
defrosting food from dropping food juices on
to other food.
Energy saving tips
.
Place your fridge away from direct sunlight,
your oven or any other heat sources. Allow
20 cm clear space on both sides and above,
and at least 5 cm behind.
Cover all food stored, and arrange it so that cold
.
air can circulate freely.
Higher cold setting will use more energy. Do not
.
set to maximum cold if it is not necessary.
Cool the hot/warm food to room temperature
.
before put them into your fridge.
Frequently opening and closing the door will
.
cause the internal temperature to rise and it
will consume more energy.
.
Close the door(s) properly, and make sure the
seals and hinges are airtight. Check the seals by
putting a sheet of paper between the door and
the main body of the fridge. If the paper moves,
your seals need replacing.
.
Defrost regularly if your chest freezer is not a
frost-free or cyclic defrost model. Accumulated
ice layer should not be more than 5 mm thick.
.
The pre-set combination of drawers, baskets and
shelves have already been set in the most
efficient way for the use of this product.
Defrosting
.
The appliance requires defrosting once or twice
a year when the ice layer thickness
5~10mm. Unplug the appliance from the mains
before defrosting.
.
Remove all frozen food from the freezer and
roll it firmly in newspapers. Put it into a
container in a cool place for temporary storage.
Use an ice scraper (not provided) or similar tool
.
to remove the ice layer. This process can be
speeded up by placing a pot
Empty the defrosting water and clean the
.
freezer.
Turn on the freezer and set to maximum
.
temperature. Re fill the froz en food to freezer.
This process should be completed within
.
2 hours.
