9. Overheating warning (only after a power failure)
When the cooling system is on and on the freezer mode, if the freezer temperature is over
-10°C, the temperature digits will flash on the display. You can display the temperature when
you press any button, and the display will return to its normal condition if you press any button
again or after 5 seconds.
10. Fault alarm
If the display shows E0, E1, E2, EH or EC, it indicates there has been a freezer failure. Contact the
Technical Support Service of Cecotec.
5. INSTRUCTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE
Use cautions
-
The freezer may not operate consistently (there may be some defrosting of the contents or
the temperature may become too hot) if placed in locations with a temperature out of the
temperature range for which they are designed for a long period of time.
-
The internal temperature may be affected by factors such as the location of the freezer,
room temperature and the door opening frequency, etc., and you should take these factors
into account if you decide to use any temperature control devices.
-
Do not store effervescent or carbonated drinks inside the device when the freezer mode
is active.
Food storage
-
Refrigerator mode: it is suitable to store food that does not need to be frozen, cooked food,
soft drinks, eggs, milk, juice, etc.
-
The freezer compartment is suitable to store ice cream, frozen foods and food that needs
to be kept for a long time.
-
Drawers: pull the drawer to access food.
Care for food storage
-
Clean and dry food completely before storing it in the device. Before introducing food in
the device, it is advisable to seal it to prevent water evaporation and thus keep fruit and
vegetables fresh on the one hand, and to prevent odours on the other.
-
Leave enough space between the food; if they are too close together, they will block the
flow of cold air, which will affect the cooling effect. Do not store too much or too heavy
food to prevent the shelves from bending. When storing food, leave a distance from the
interior wall; do not place water-rich food too close to the rear wall of the appliance when
the refrigerator mode is activated, to prevent them from freezing on the inside wall.
-
Food storage by category: place daily food items at the front of the shelf so that you can
reduce the door opening time and avoid food spoilage due to shelf life.

-
Energy saving tips: let hot food cool to room temperature before introducing it in the device.
-
Please note that some foods are sensitive to cold and are therefore not suitable for storage
in the appliance.
Use of the freezer mode
-
This mode is advisable for storing food that you wish to keep for a long period of time,
always respecting the storage time indicated on the food packaging.
-
Large fish and meat should be cut into small pieces and placed in freezer bags before
placing them in the freezer compartment drawers.
-
Let hot food cool down to room temperature before introducing it in the freezer
compartment.
-
Do not place a glass container with liquid or sealed canned liquid in the freezer to prevent
them from exploding due to volume expansion after freezing the liquid.
-
Food should be packed or covered with suitable materials that are firm, tasteless,
impermeable to air and water, non-toxic and non-polluting, to avoid cross-contamination
and odour transfer.
6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
If the freezer is not going to be used for a long period of time:
-
Turn off the freezer and unplug it from the power supply.
-
Remove all the food.
-
Clean and dry the interior completely. To prevent mould or unpleasant odours from
forming, leave the door slightly open: lock it open or remove it if necessary.
-
Store the appliance in a ventilated and dry place, away from heat sources; place the
appliance carefully and do not place heavy objects on it.
-
The device must be kept out of the reach of children to prevent them from playing with it.
Before cleaning, disconnect the power plug; do not connect or disconnect the power plug with
your hands wet, as there is a risk of electric shock and injury. Do not spill water directly on
the freezer to avoid rust, electrical leakage and accidents. Do not reach into the bottom of the
freezer, as you may get scratched by the sharp metal corners.
Interior and exterior cleaning
-
Food residues in the freezer can cause undesired odours, so you should clean the freezer
regularly. The refrigerator compartment should be cleaned once a month.
-
Remove all drawers and clean them with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with warm
water or neutral detergent.
-
Clean the dust that accumulates on the rear panel and side panels of the freezer regularly.
-
After using detergent, make sure you rinse it with clean water, and then dry it with a cloth.
