Important safety instructions
4
Storing food and drinks
Never store volatile/flammable materials or solvents in your appliance as they may explode or
■ ■
adversely react with materials in this appliance.
Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing, which may cause the
■ ■
container to explode.
Never freeze carbonated drinks. They may explode.
■ ■
Do not consume food if it is too cold. Frozen food may be cold enough to cause damage when
■ ■
brought into contact with bare skin, eg. frozen ice cubes.
Power failure – food safety
Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. Follow the recommendations below if
■ ■
you discover food in your freezer has thawed:
1) Ice crystals still visible – food may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter period than
recommended.
2) Thawed but refrigerator cold – refreezing generally not recommended. Fruits and some
cooked food can be refrozen but use as soon as possible. Meat, fish, poultry – use immediately
or cook then refreeze. Vegetables – discard as they usually go limp and soggy.
3) Thawed and warmer than 5ºC – discard all foods.
Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat.
■ ■
Cleaning
Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents which may attack plastic
■ ■
components of your appliance and cause them to crack. Please refer to the cleaning care section
of this guide for further advice.
Always keep the floor around the toe-kick area clean, to limit the amount of dirt or dust that may
■ ■
enter the condenser cooling circuit of the product.
