empty, and it should be carried out as quickly
as possible.
• An increase in temperature of frozen food
packages during defrosting will shorten the
storage life. Provided that the contents are well
wrapped and placed in a cool area, they should
keep for several hours.
• Examine the contents when replacing them in
the freezer and if some of the packages have
thawed out.
• After defrosting is finished clean the inside
with a solution of warm water with a little
bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly.
Wash all removable parts in the same way and
reassemble.
• Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply
and leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting number
MAX before introducing the food back into
the freezer and setting the thermostat to your
normal setting.

NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE
• You may notice some rather unusual
noises. The noises are caused by circulation
of refrigerant in the cooling system. It
has become more pronounced since the
introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a
fault and will not affect the performance of
your fridge.
PROLONGED OFF PERIODS
If the appliance is not in use for a long period of
time, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect from the mains supply.
2. Clean and dry the inside (see 'Cleaning and
maintenance').
3. Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant
smells from building up while the appliance is
not in use.
NOTES FOR USE
• Do clean and defrost your appliance regularly.
• Do check contents of the compartments every
so often.
• Do store commercially prepared food in
accordance with the instructions given on the
packets.
