MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
If the appliance is turned off for any reason, wait for 10 minutes before turning it back on. This will allow
the refrigeration system pressures to equalise before restarting.
·
Turn off the appliance and unplug it from the mains socket. Remove all food. Also remove all mobile
parts (shelves, accessories, etc.) or fix them into the fridge to avoid any shock.
·
Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing
upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on.
STORING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE
The fridge helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods.
Fresh food care for best results:
·
Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.
·
Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from
dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent
odour transfer.
·
Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such as
butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours.
·
Cool hot foods down before placing them in the fridge.
VACATION TIME
For short vacation periods, leave the control knobs at their usual settings. During longer absences:
·
Remove all foods.
·
Disconnect from electrical outlet.
·
Clean the refrigerator thoroughly, including defrost pan.
·
Leave the door open to avoid possible formations of condensate, mould or odours.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures.
However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.
During power failures of longer duration, take steps to protect your food by putting dry ice on top of
packages.
