Care and Maintenance
Defrosting
Moisture will be introduced to the liner during lid openings and
the addition of unfrozen food packages. The moisture will
accumulate in the form of frost mostly on the upper part of the
liner walls.
Accumulation of frost up to 6 mm (1/4" ) on the liner is not harmful.
However, when it becomes heavier, it should be removed as it retards
cooling resulting in longer running (cycle) times.
Frost may be removed with a wooden spatula or a plastic defrosting
walls.
Do not use any sharp instruments as this may result in damage to
the liner wall and /or sealed system, voiding any and / oral wrranties
which may be in effect.
Under average conditions, defrosting will not be necessary more than
once or twice a year.
Besides frost, food particles and other foreign substances may
the following method is recommended:
a ) Unplug freezer.
b ) Qwickly remove all frozen food and store them in baskers, cartons
or other suitable containers. Keep them well covered with blankets
to avoid excessive temperature rise.
c) Akettle / pot of hot water placed in the center of the liner will
greatly accelerate defrosting.
d) With the help of a wooden spatula or a plastic
defrosting scoop, remove the frost and ice off the liner
wall as soon as it becomes loose ( approximately 15
minutes from start). Using a piece of cloth soaked in hot
water,the process can be considerably accelerated.
As soon as the ice has fallen to the bottom,remove it .
Do not let it melt in the freezer as this will increase
defrosting and cleaning time.
Cleaning
Now the liner is ready to be cleaned. Sprinkle baking
soda on the bottom and walls. This will help in cleaning
and odor removal. in order to.retain the finish of the
freezer cabinet inside and outside, wash only with warm
water and mild soap, then rinse and dry. Do not use under
any circumstances, a grit soap or a kitchen scouring
cleanser as they tend to scratch the finish.
Electrical and Mechanical Failure
In the event of a general power failure, it is important
to keep the contents of your freezer frozen. For your
protection, it is recommended to locate a dealer of dry ice
(solidified carbon dioxide) as soon as possible in order to
know where to go in case of an emergercy. Many ice cream
manufacturers use dry ice and this will keep the contents of
your freezer safe temperatures until the emergency has
passed.
In case of failure. it is recommended to keep the freezer wel
covered with blankets. This will help is available within-12
hours, the freezer contents should be transferred into a
neighbors freezer ( if available ).
In the event of mechanical or electrical failure of the freezer,
contact your dealer immediately and give him complete
information of your freezer. the model number and the seria
number. These are shown on the serial plate located inside
the liner.
