tips
• High ambient temperatures have a negative effect on energy use. Keep the appliance in a position away from direct sunlight or
other sources of heat.
• Keep ventilation openings free. Clogged openings lead to higher use of energy.
• Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to close it as soon as
possible.
• Turn the thermostat to a lower setting when the circumstances allow it.
• Before storing fresh cooked food, make sure the food has cooled at least to room temperature.
• Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3 to 5 mm thick.
• If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the energy consumption is substantially higher. To restore
efficiency, replace the gasket.
• Always consider the instructions, otherwise the energyconsumption is substantially higher.

defrosting, cleaning & maintenance
FROST INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM
The frost intelligence system in this freezer ensures less frost formation and the freezer does not have to be defrosted as often as
freezers without this technology. The technology also ensures that the freezer defrosts quickly and is easy to clean.
Defrost the freezer compartment when the layer of ice reaches a thickness of 3 to 5 mm. It is recommended to combine defrosting
the appliance with cleaning it.
• Turn the thermostat to 1 and unplug the appliance.
• Open the door and remove the food from the freezer. Keep the contents of the freezer in a cool place and wrapped in blankets or
newspapers.
• Leave the door open, this will speed up the defrost process.
• Place a container under the freezing compartment and wait for the ice to defrost. You can speed up the defrosting process by
placing a bowl of hot water in the freezer.
Remove the ice with a plastic ice scraper.
Warning: Never remove the ice with the aid of sharp objects, defrost sprays, a hair-drier, a heater, or similar items. This may lead to
unsafe situations and may cause irreparable damage to the appliance.
• Clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm water and a neutral detergent to prevent any bad smells occurring. After cleaning,
rinse the interior with clean water and rub dry.
• Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours. Simply remove the drawers to clean them by hand. Do not clean the interior accessories
in the dishwasher.
• Clean the outside of the appliance and the gasket with a soft moist cloth.
• Switch the thermostat on to the right setting. When the freezer compartment reaches its correct temperature, replace the food
items.
NOTES
• Excessive accumulation of ice on the freezing areas impairs the appliance's freezing capacity and increases the energy
consumption.
• Defrost the appliance at least once or twice a year. In case of a higher ice build-up, defrosting must be carried out more frequently.
• After taking the food out of the freezer, put it in a container, wrap it with several layers of paper, a blanket and store it at a cool place.
• The defrosting operation should last as short as possible. Long storage of food at the ambient temperature shortens their shelf life.
