Helpful tips

Energy saving tips
We recommend that you follow the tips below to save energy.

• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods to conserve energy.
• Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (Direct sunlight, electric oven, cooker, etc.).
• Do not set the temperature colder than necessary.
• Do not store warm food or evaporating liquid in the appliance.
• Place the appliance in a well-ventilated, humidity-free room.
  • The diagram shows the correct combination for the drawers, crisper, and shelves, do not adjust the combination as this is designed to be the most energy efficient configuration.

Tips for fresh food refrigeration

• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator or freezer, the internal temperature will increase resulting in the compressor having to work harder and consume more energy.
• Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavor.
• Place food properly so that air can circulate freely around it.

Tips for refrigeration

• Meat (All Types): wrap in polythene and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. Always follow food storage times and use dates suggested by manufacturers.
• Cooked food, cold dishes, etc.:
  • They should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables:
  • They should be stored in the special drawer provided.
• Butter and cheese:
  • Should be wrapped in airtight foil or plastic film wrap.
• Milk bottles:
  • Should have a lid and be stored in the door racks.

Tips for freezing

• When first starting up or after a period out of use, let the appliance run for at least 2 hours on the higher settings before putting food in the compartment.
• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
• Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene food wraps which are airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food which is already frozen to avoid the temperature rise of the latter.
• Iced products, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, will probably cause frost burns to the skin.
• It is recommended to label and date each frozen package to keep track of the storage time.

Tips for the storage of frozen food

• Ensure that frozen food has been stored correctly by the food retailer.
• Once defrosted, food will deteriorate rapidly and should not be re-frozen. Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.

Switching off your appliance

• Exterior cleaning
  • To maintain the good appearance of your appliance, you should clean it regularly.
• Wipe the control panel with a clean, soft cloth.
• Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly on the surface of the appliance. This helps ensure an even distribution of moisture to the surface.
• Clean the doors, handles, and cabinet surfaces with a mild detergent and then wipe dry with a soft cloth.
• CAUTION!
  • Do not use sharp objects as they are likely to scratch the surface.
  • Do not use thinners, car detergent, Clorox, ethereal oil, abrasive cleaners, or an organic solvent such as Benzene for cleaning. They may damage the surface of the appliance and may cause a fire.
• Interior cleaning
  • You should clean the appliance interior regularly. It will be easier to clean when food stocks are low. Wipe the inside of the refrigerator freezer with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda, and then rinse with warm water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and baskets.
  • Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts before putting them back into place.
  • Although this appliance automatically defrosts, a layer of frost may occur on the freezer compartment’s interior walls if the freezer door is opened frequently or kept open too long. If the frost is too thick, choose a time when the freezer is nearly empty and proceed as follows:

1. Remove existing food and accessories baskets, unplug the appliance from the outlet, and leave the doors open. Ventilate the room thoroughly to accelerate the process.
2. When defrosting is completed, clean your freezer as described above.

Caution!

• Do not use sharp objects to remove frost from the freezer compartment. Only after the interior is completely dry should the appliance be switched back on and plugged back into the mains socket.

Door seals cleaning

• Take care to keep door seals clean. Sticky food and drinks can cause seals to stick to the cabinet and tear when you open the door. Wash the seal with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry it thoroughly after cleaning. Caution! Only after the door seals are completely dry should the appliance be powered on.

Replacing the LED light:

• Warning : The LED light must not be replaced by the user. If the LED light is damaged, contact the customer helpline at 800-932-4267 for assistance between 9:00AM and 5:00PM or visit https://www.summitappliance.com/support at any time.
