• Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the

unit are kept cool.

• To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and

vegetables do not need to be wrapped.

• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain

the internal temperature of the unit.

• To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the

door. We recommend that you only open the door when you need to put food in or take

food out.

Cleaning

Frost might build up in the unit after it has been used for a period of time. Scrape away the frost

using a plastic scraper (not included).

Do not use a metal or sharp instrument to scrap away the frost, nor should you use any

electrical appliances to aid defrosting.

We recommend that defrosting should be carried out when the frost layer builds up to 10 mm

(0.39"). Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low, follow these procedures:

1. Take out the food, turn the unit off at the mains supply and leave the door open. Ideally, the

frozen food should be put into another freezer. If this is not possible, wrap the food in several

sheets of newspaper or large towels and then a thick blanket to keep it cool.

2. Place a shallow bowl or pan below the unit. Scrape away the frost

using the plastic scraper. Defrosting the remaining frost can be

speeded up by placing a bowl of hot water inside the unit and

closing the door. As the solid frost loosens, scrape it away with the

plastic scraper and remove.

3. When defrosting is complete, clean your unit's interior and exterior.

• Remove the shelf before cleaning.

• Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with

warm water using a 'wrung-out' sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the

shelf.

• Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make

sure that the door is closed to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside

the unit.

• The grille of the condenser at the back of the unit and the adjacent components can be

vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
