When freezing small quantities, up to
1/2 kg (1 lb), the setting knob will not
need adjusting.
Preparation
Wrap food in aluminium foil or freezer
quality polythene bags.Wrap fish and
offal in polythene bags.
Wrap food which has a strong odour
or can dry out, in polythene bags,
aluminium foil, or place in airtight
containers.
Make sure all air is excluded from foil
wrapping or bags.
Freezer compartment storage info/
advice
Do not leave frozen food at room
temperature to thaw; the best way to
defrost food is to put it in the fridge
to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid
defrosting food or food juices drip onto
other food.
The freezer compartment is
rated and suitable for freezing food and
the storage of pre-frozen food.
Don't freeze filled bottles or sealed
cans containing fizzy (carbonated)
drinks as they may burst.
Check contents of the freezer every
so often.Don't close the freezer door
unless all drawers/flaps are closed.
Don't try to keep frozen food which
has thawed, it should be eaten within
24 hours or cooked and re-frozen.
If there is a power failure do not open
the door. Frozen food should not be
affected if the failure lasts for less than
18 hours. If the failure is longer, then
the food should be checked and either
eaten immediately or cooked and
then re-frozen.Placing warm food into
the freezer compartment causes the
compressor to operate continuously
until the food is frozen solid. This can
temporarily lead to excessive cooling of
the refrigeration compartment.
"The wire shelf between the two full
depth plastic drawers can be removed
temporarily if you want to store a turkey.
After you remove the drawers, pull out
the wire shelf as shown in the diagram.
Reverse the sequence of operations
when you re-fit the wire shelf back in to
its position. Make sure you fit it properly
otherwise operation of drawers will be
affected."
Defrosting
A) Fridge Compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically.
The defrosting water runs to the
drain tube via a collection container
at the back of the appliance (1). (see
diagram)
During
droplets may form at the back of the
fridge compartment where concealed
evaporator is located. Some droplets
may remain on the liner and refreeze
when defrosting is completed. Do not
use pointed or sharp edged objects
such as knives, forks to remove the
droplets which have frozen.
If at any time the defrost water does
not drain from the collection channel,
check to ensure that no food particles
have blocked the drain tube. The drain
tube can be cleared by pushing the
special plastic plunger provided down
