Cleaning And Maintenance - ECG ERB 21700 WA+ Instruction Manual

• Storing frozen food: instructions are usually stated on the packages, which must be followed. If there is
no information on the packaging, food should not be stored for longer than three months from the date
of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it was frozen at a suitable temperature and that the
packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be kept in suitable packages to retain the quality and should be returned to the freezer
compartment as soon as possible.
• If a package of frozen food shows moisture or abnormal bulging, it is probable that it was stored at the
GB
wrong temperature and the content is spoiled.
• The storage period for frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting, the
frequency of opening the door of the freezer, the type of food and the time of transporting the product
from the shop to the household. Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never
exceed the maximum storage time stated on the package.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electricity socket.
• Do not clean the appliance with water.
• The refrigerator and the freezer should be periodically cleaned using a lukewarm
water solution and edible soda.
• Clean accessories separately using soapy water. Do not use a washing machine.
• Do not use abrasive products, detergents, and soaps. After
washing, rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. After cleaning,
use dry hands to plug the appliance into the electricity socket.
• Clean the condenser (the back part of the appliance) using a brush
a minimum of once a year. This will increase productivity and save
energy.
Recommendation
If you are not using the appliance for a long time (for example during
summer holidays), disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply,
clean it and leave the door open. This will prevent the origination of
mould and odour.
