The storage duration depends on the type of the frozen food. The values next to the symbols represent the permissible storage duration for the respective frozen food in months. In the are case of oven-ready frozen meals which are available in stores, the production date or the “Bst Before” date should be observed. Defrosting frozen foods Depending on the type of food and intended use, frozen products can be defrosted: - At room temperature, - In the refrigerator, - In an electric oven, - With/without hot-air fan, - In a microwave. Defrosted meat and fish which has risen above +3 °C for no more than one day (other defrosted food for no more than three days) may be refrozen. No longer store the frozen produce for the max. storage period. Defrosting Refrigerator compartment The refrigerator compartment defrosts fully automatically. The condensation is conveyed down the drainage channel (Fig. ®/B) to the refrigerating unit where it evaporates. To ensure that the condensation flow is not obstructed, always keep the drainage channel and drain hole clean. Defrosting the freezer compartment The freezer compartment does not defrost automatically, as the frozen food must not thaw. A thick layer of hoarfrost or ice will impair refrigeration of the frozen food and increase power consumption. NEVER scrape off hoarfrost or ice with a knife, as the freezer-compartment evaporator could be punctured. Spurting refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite. If the freezer compartment is covered in thick ice, defrost. Proceed as follows: • Remove the frozen food, wrap in newspaper and store in a cool location. • Remove the mains plug. • Leave the door open, wipe up the condensation with a cloth or sponge. • Dry the freezer compartment, switch ON the appliance again and re-insert the frozen food. 29 en Defrosting Defrosting aids To accelerate the defrosting process, place a pan of hot water on a base on the floor of the freezer compartment. NEVER use electric heaters, steam cleaners, candles or kerosene lamps to defrost the freezer compartment. Caution when using defrosting sprays, as these may form explosive gases and may contain solvents or propellants which attack plastic or which are a health hazard. Cleaning Before cleaning the appliance, ALWAYS remove the mains plug or switch OFF or unscrew the fuse. NEVER clean the appliance with a steam or steam pressure cleaner. The hot steam may damage the surface and the electrics. - Risk of electric shock! Clean the refrigerator compartment once a month. It is recommended to clean the freezer compartment after each defrosting process. Cleaning water must NOT drip onto the control fitting or light. Clean the whole appliance, except the door seal, with tepid water and a mild, slightly disinfecting cleaning agent, e.g. liquid soap. Abrasive and acidic cleaning agents and chemical solvents are NOT suitable. To prevent dull areas, non-abrasive cleaning agents should not be used either. Wipe the door seal with water only and then dry thoroughly. To ensure that the condensation flow is not obstructed, clean the collection channel (Fig. ®/B) and drain hole more frequently. Try to prevent cleaning water from dripping through the drainage aperture into the evaporation tray. 30 en Information on operating noises Operating noises To keep the selected temperature constant, your appliance occasionally switches ON the compressor. The resulting noises are quite normal. As soon as the appliance has reached the operating temperature, the noises automatically reduce in volume. The humming noise is emitted by the motor (compressor). When the motor switches ON, the noise may briefly increase in volume. The bubbling, gurgling or whirring noise is emitted by the refrigerant as it flows through the pipes. The clicking noise can always be heard when the thermostat switches ON/OFF the motor. An appliance with a fan may cause a low hissing noise emitted by the air flow inside the appliance. If these noises are excessively loud, the causes are probably not serious and are usually very easy to eliminate. The appliance is not level Please level the appliance with the aid of a spirit level. Use the height-adjustable feet or place packing under the feet. The appliance is not free-standing Please move the appliance away from kitchen units or other appliances. Tips for saving energy • Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room, but NOT in direct sunlight and NOT near a heat source (radiator, etc.). • Do NOT block the ventilation slots on the appliance. • Allow warm food to cool down before placing in the refrigerator. • To defrost frozen products, place them in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen products is then used to cool the food in the refrigerator compartment. • Defrost the freezer compartment when ice forms. A thick layer of ice will impair refrigeration of the frozen food and increase power consumption. • When ...
