FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not sterilize the food. It is advisable to freeze the food by packing it into separate meal portions and not in bulk form. Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs into the freezer. Prior to storing the frozen food, pack it in plastic bags, aluminum sheets, or freezing containers and place into the freezer.
NOTE: Never put bottled food or drinks in the freezer compartment. For best performance, leave enough space in the Freezer compartment for air to circulate around the packages.
NOTE: You can use it without drawer under some conditions.

DEFROSTING
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket, open the door and remove all the food to a cool place. Defrost using a plastic scraper, or let the temperature rise naturally until the frost melts. Then wipe away the remaining ice and water, after this plug the freezer back into the mains supply.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the freezing compartment wall, do not use any sharp objects to remove the frost or separate the frozen food.

CLEANING YOUR FREEZER

• For areas that are difficult to clean in the refrigerator (such as narrow sandwiches, gaps, or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a soft rag, soft brush, etc. and when necessary, combined with some auxiliary tools (such as thin sticks) to ensure no contaminants or bacterial accumulation in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in the interior of the refrigerator or contaminated food.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
• Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
