Storage compartment. To ensure that the high quality achieved by the
frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained, the
following should be observed:
- Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
- Ensure that contents are labelled and dated.
-Do not exceed "Use By" or "Best Before" dates on the packaging
•If there is a power failure do not open the door to maintain temperature
Food Storage
Freezing Fresh Food:
•Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the
Food is best preserved when it is frozen right through as quickly as
possible
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm has formed.
Switch off the freezer at the socket and pull out the plug. Extract the water
conduit and place in a water container.
6 hours before defrosting set the thermostat knob to “Super FRZ” to ensure the
food is at the lowest temperature when you take it out. Remove the freezer
basket. Leave the lid open. Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in
the freezer to speed up the defrosting.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for
defrosting. When defrosting has finished release the water which has collected at
the bottom of the freezer as per the diagram below and dry the interior
thoroughly. Switch on Fast Freeze and leave it on for about three hours.
1. There is a water conduit at the bottom of the freezer, when defrosting,
remove the rubber cover, defrosted water will drip into the hole and flow out.
(NOTE: Please keep the rubber cover safe during the defrosting and put it
back after defrosting is done)
2. Pull out the water conduit by 20-25mm until the water hole can be seen.
3. Twist the water conduit until the arrow points downward.
4. After defrosting is complete, make sure there is no more water coming out
the water conduit, replace and make the arrow point upward.
5. Wipe away any remaining ice and water.
Defrosting
Important: Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate
the defrosting process

The following guidelines and recommendations are suggested to obtain the
best results:
Prepackaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with
the frozen food manufacturer’s instructions for a freezer
compartment.
1. The freezer is rated and suitable for the freezing and storage of pre
frozen food. The recommendation for storage as stated on the food
packaging should be observed at all times.
2. Keep the food packed, wrapped or covered.
3. Fizzy drinks should not be frozen and products such as flavoured water
ices should not be consumed too cold.
4. Do not leave frozen food at room temperature to thaw; the best way
to defrost food is to put it in the fridge to thaw slowly.
5. For hygiene reasons, always wrap food using a suitable packaging
material before storing in your appliance to avoid contact with the
appliance surface.
Arrangement of Food in the Freezer
Place fresh foods to be frozen near the sidewalls to ensure fast freezing and
away from already frozen food, if possible. Freezing capacity of your
appliance in a 24 hours period is 5 kg (10lb). Never exceed this maximum
capacity. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of
the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the center as
quickly as possible. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and
fresh food.
