manual abstract
• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer. Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be stored in the freezer. • All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods occurs. Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food. 1. To achieve faster freezing of food or to freeze the maximum allowed quantity, depress the ambient switch 12 hours before loading the food without modifying the thermostat setting. 2. Place the food to be frozen in the top drawer. 3. Not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary. Preparation of Ice Cubes 1. Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer compartment and leave to freeze. 2. To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it under running water for a few seconds. Important! Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scraper supplied. Freezing Calendar • The symbols on the drawers show different types of frozen goods. • The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing. The lower value applies to foods with high fat content. Ice packs There are two ice packs in one drawer of the freezer. In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice pack will lengthen the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to become too warm by several hours. The ice pack can only fulfil this task optimally if it is placed in the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food. You can use the ice pack for cooling cold bags. Defrosting Refrigerator Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates. Freezer The freezer compartment, however, will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the thicknessof the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs. However when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out as follows: 1. Remove the frozen food from the freezer, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a very cool place. 2. Switch off the appliance and pull out the plug, or remove or unscrew the safety fuses. 3. Leave the freezer compartment door open. 4. Insert the plastic scraper into the recess provided under the defrost water channel and place a collec ting basin under it. 5. Once defrosting is completed keep the scraper for future use; 6. Turn the thermostat knob to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket. Warning! Never use metal tools to scrape off the frost Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shor ten their safe storage life. Cleaning and Care Outside of the appliance Important: Do not use cleaning agents for stainless steel or other aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents. The protective coat of lacquer on the stainless steel surface can be damaged by these. The coat of lacquer protects against finger prints and therefore additional cleaning agents and maintenance products are no longer required. • Clean the appliance with a cloth and lukewarm water. Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used. • After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry. For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be cleaned regularly. Warning! • The appliance should not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock! Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse. • Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical components, danger of electrical shock! Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts. • The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service. Attention! • Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. – lemon juice or the juice from orange peals; – butyric acid; – cleansers which contain acetic acid. Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts. • ...
