Cleaning And Maintenance - Cecotec 02449 Bedienungsanleitung

ENGLISH
Storing frozen food
- Commercially pre-frozen food should be stored according to the supplier's instructions.
- To preserve the quality of frozen food, you should remember the following:
1. Place packages in the freezer as soon as possible after purchase.
2. Do not exceed the best-before or use-by dates on the packaging.
Freezing fresh food
- Place fresh food to be frozen close to the side walls to ensure rapid freezing and away
from already frozen food, if possible.
- Never exceed maximum capacity. Do not freeze too large a quantity at one time.
- The quality of food is best preserved when it is frozen to the core as quickly as possible.
- Do not mix frozen food with fresh food.

5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

- Always unplug the appliance before cleaning it.
- Never use any sharp abrasive instruments, soap, household cleaners, detergents and
wax polish for cleaning.
- Use lukewarm water to clean the freezer chamber and wipe it dry with a cloth.
- Once the inside of the freezer is at room temperature, you can use a damp cloth with a
solution of one teaspoon of baking soda with one litre of water to wipe the inside and dry
it.
- You should regularly remove the accumulated ice deposit with a plastic scraper. A large
accumulation of ice will have a negative effect on the performance of the freezer.
- If the freezer is not to be used for a long period of time, turn it off, remove all food, clean it
and leave the door ajar.
- Check the door seals regularly to ensure that they are clean and free of food remains.
Note
Never use water to wash the compressor. Wipe with a dry cloth after cleaning to prevent
rusting.
Defrosting
- Defrost the freezer twice a year or when a frost layer of about 7 mm (1/4") has formed.
- To ensure that frozen food is at the lowest possible temperature, 6 hours before
defrosting, set the thermostat selector switch to level 7 (quick freeze option). Wrap all
food in several layers of newspaper and store in a cool place.
- Remove the water line and place it in a water container.
- Remove the basket from the freezer. Remove the basket from the freezer.
