Defrosting The Appliance; Freezing Food - Summit FFBF240WX Manual De Instrucciones

Defrosting the appliance

The refrigerator compartment
defrosts automatically. The
thawing water flows through the
drain channel into a collection
container at the rear of the
device. When the fresh food
section is going through a defrost
cycle, it is normal to see frozen
water droplets on the evaporator
if the water has not completely
dripped off the evaporator.
The freezer compartment also
defrosts automatically.
Warning! The fan in the freezer
compartment circulates cold air.
Never insert any object through
the guard. Do not allow children
to play with the freezer fan.

Freezing food

You can use the freezer
compartment for freezing fresh
food as well as for storing
pre-frozen food. Please refer to
the recommendations given on
the packaging of your food.
Do not freeze carbonated drinks,
as the container may burst when
the liquid freezes. In order to
maintain the quality of your food,
it must be frozen as rapidly as
possible. Do not exceed the
freezing capacity of your
appliance in a 24-hour period.
(See the rating label.) In this way,
the freezing capacity will not be
exceeded, and the temperature
inside the freezer will not rise.
Attention!
 Keep deep-frozen food
separated from freshly placed
food.
 When deep-freezing hot food,
the cooling compressor will
work until the food is
completely frozen. This can
temporarily cause excessive
cooling of the refrigerator
compartment, so in general,
allow hot foods to cool before
freezing them.
 If you find the freezer door
difficult to open just after you
have closed it, don't worry.
This is due to a pressure
differential that will equalize
and allow the door to open
normally after a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound
just after closing the door. This
is normal.
 Do not cover the shelves with
any protective materials,
which may obstruct air
circulation.
 Do not allow children to play
with the appliance or tamper
with the controls.
 To ensure that you obtain the
best possible performance
from your appliance, do not
obstruct the freezer fan guard.
