[. . . ] Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing. 6 HINTS AND TIPS Food Storage · To obtain the best results from your appliance, neither hot foods nor liquids which may evaporate, should be placed in the larder compartment. Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your fridge as short as possible. Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate around each item. Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and clean, refer to `Maintenance and Cleaning'. Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and labelled and used in date order to ensure that food is consumed at its best. When you arrive home place the frozen food in the freezer immediately. In the Event of a Power Failure If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the temperature within your freezer should rise do not refreeze the food without checking it's condition. Unscrew the bulb and replace it with one of the same power (the maximum power is shown on the light diffuser) available from your nearest Service Force Centre. Replace the light cover by sliding it into its original position and replacing the screw. External cleaning Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, see figure, as an accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consumption. Defrosting Refrigerator The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the pipe, into a tray located at the back of the appliance above the compressor, where it evaporates. PR259 D037 Important To avoid defrost water overflowing into the fridge, periodically clean the water discharge hole in the centre of the V shaped drip collector at the back of the refrigerator compartment behind the fruit and vegetable drawer. Use the defrost cleaner provided which you will find already inserted into the discharge hole. 8 Remember to wash the defrost cleaner in hot soapy water at regular intervals. Dry throughly before replacing. Freezer When the frost has reached a thickness of up to 4mm it can be removed using the ice scraper provided with the appliance. During this operation it is not necessary to disconnect the appliance from the mains and remove the food. For complete defrosting (once or twice a year) proceed as follows: turn the thermostat control knob to the «OFF» position (O) or disconnect the appliance from the mains. Remove any food from inside the freezer and fridge, wrap it in several sheets of newspaper and store in a cool/dry place. - Leave the door open and insert the ice scraper under the channel in the centre of the lower part of the appliance; place a low-sided container beneath the scraper to collect the water. - Replace the scraper in one of the drawers . D068 - - Reconnect the appliance to the mains or reset the thermostat control knob to a functioning position. After letting the appliance run for a least half an hour, replace the previously removed food into the compartment. - Important When defrosting the freezer, the fridge is also controlled by the thermostat and will not be operational during this period. A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life. 9 SOMETHING NOT WORKING Important: If you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or installation a charge will be made, even if the appliance is under guarantee.
