Noise From Your Appliance; Prolonged Off Periods; Notes For Use - Proline TTZ 96 P Operating Instructions Manual

EN
For the removal of thin frost it is not necessary to switch off the appliance.
For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and empty the
contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep them cold.
Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when the freezer is empty, and it should be carried out as
quickly as possible.
An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during defrosting will shorten the storage life.
Provided that the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area, they should keep for several
hours.
Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages have thawed out.
After defrosting is finished clean the inside with a solution of warm water with a little bicarbonate of
soda and then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the same way and reassemble.
Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting number 5 before
introducing the food back into the freezer and setting the thermostat to your normal setting.
Noise from your appliance
You may notice some rather unusual noises. The noises are caused by circulation of refrigerant in the
cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a
fault and will not affect the performance of your fridge.
Prolonged off periods
If the appliance is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as follows:
Disconnect from the mains supply.
Clean and dry the inside (see 'Cleaning and maintenance').
Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from building up while the appliance is not in use.
Notes for use
Do clean and defrost your appliance regularly.
Do check contents of the compartments every so often.
Do store commercially prepared food in accordance with the instructions given on the packets.
Do choose high quality fresh food and be sure it is thoroughly clean before freezing it.
Do wrap all food in food quality polythene bags or air tight containers and make sure any air is excluded.
Do Not store poisonous or any dangerous substances in your freezer. It is designed for the freezing of
edible foodstuffs only.
Do Not consume food which has been frozen for an excessive length of time.
Do Not leave the door open for long periods, as this will make the appliance more costly to run and
cause excessive ice formation.
Do Not use sharp objects such as knives to remove the ice from the appliance. Only use a plastic scraper.
Do Not put hot food into the appliance. Let it cool down to room temperature.
Do Not put liquid‐filled bottles or sealed cans containing carbonated liquids into the freezer as they may
burst.
Do Not give children ice‐cream and water ices direct from the freezer as the low temperature may cause
'freezer burns' on the lips.
Do Not try to keep frozen food which has thawed; it should be eaten within 24 hours or cooked and
re‐frozen.
