Anleitung Zusammenfassung
The freezer temeprature is controlled automatically by the thermostat situated in the larder compartment or table top. Due to different installations, methods of usage and weather conditions, adjustments to the temperature setting may be required. These are best assessed against a temperature reading on a thermometer buried in the frozen food. Remember you must take your reading very quickly since the thermometer temperature will rise rapidly after your remove it. FROZEN FOOD STORAGE Your appliance has the following net storage volume: Model “A” net storage volume 75.81 litres (2.68cuft) * weight of stored food 24.3kg (53.57lb). Model “B” net storage volume 62 litres (2.19cuft) *weight of stored food 19.84kg (43.8lb). *This is a standard measurement and the actual capacity depends upon the density and sizes of the food. The above figures are based on an average daily density of 0.32Kg per litre (20lb per cuft). Pre packed frozen food should be stored in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions for a 4star frozen food compartment and should be put in the freezer as soon as possible after purchase. Your freezer provides for long term storage which generally means up to 3 months, but the length of time can vary and it is important to follow the recommended times shown on packets of commercially frozen food. Any opened packets of frozen food, should be rewrapped in airtight materials to prevent surface evaporation which causes drying or ‘freezer burn’. DEFROSTING YOUR Complete defrosting will in the course of time become necessary. This should be carried out if the frost build up cannot be all scraped away or if it begins to interfere with the food storage. Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low and proceed as follows: Take out the frozen food. Switch the appliance off at the mains and leave the door open. Ideally the foods should be put into another freezer or refrigerator. If this is not possible, wrap it in a compact block, first in several sheets, newspapers or thick towels, then in a thick rug or blanket. Keep it in a cool place. Defrosting will vary depending on whether the freezer compartment is at the top or bottom of the appliance. With the freezer at the top. A defrost drain is situated in the bottom right of the freezer compartment, sealed from below (in the top of the refrigerator) by a plastic B IMPORTANT If the temperature rises in frozen food because of: a) Non compliance with manufacturer’s recommendations. b) Electric power failure. c) Due to defrosting. Then recommended storage life may be reduced and storage times may not apply. Frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should either be used immediately or thrown away. Alternatively if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen. NOTE 1- Do not place sealed containers of carbonated liquids such as fizzy drinks into the freezer as it creates pressure on the container which may cause it to explode resulting in damage to the freezer. 2. Ice cubes and ice lollies should not be consumed immediately after removal from the freezer as it may result in low temperature skin abrasions. FREEZING FRESH FOODS The Maximum quantity of fresh food you can freeze in any 24 hours is; Model “A” 9kg (201b), Model “B” 4.5kg (101b). NOTE Aim to check dates on packets and rotate food regularly. Although storage longer than recommended is not harmful, flavours and textures begin to deteriorate. COMPARTMENT plug. Remove this plug by pulling it downwards (see fig. 16) and put a container under the opening to catch the defrost water. Keep the plug safely for reuse when defrosting is finished. Before complete defrosting, remove the bottom shelf in the freezer cabinet. With the freezer at the bottom fold out the flip spout, put a suitable container under the spout to collect the defrost water, and leave the door open (see fig. 17). Defrosting can be speeded up by putting bowls of hot (not boiling) water in the freezer and loosening the frost with a stiff bristle brush. After defrosting, clean and dry the interior as explained under "Cleaning and Care". Remember: If the temperature of frozen food is allowed to rise during the defrosting period, its storage life may be shortened. FOOD FREEZING GUIDE Max.
