Correct use
~Never handle frozen food with wet
hands. Your hands may freeze to the
frozen food. Danger of frost burn.
~Do not take ice cubes out with your
bare hands and never place ice cubes
or ice lollies in your mouth straight from
the freezer.
The very low temperature of the frozen
ice or lollies can cause frost burn to the
lips and tongue.
~Do not refreeze thawed or partially
thawed food. Defrosted food should be
used up as quickly as possible, as food
soon loses its nutritional value and goes
off....

~Do not use defrosting sprays or
de-icers, as they might contain
substances which could damage the
plastic parts or which could cause the
build-up of gases and pose a danger to
health.
~Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seals, as these will cause the
seals to deteriorate and become
porous with time.
~Do not store cooking oil in the
refrigerator door. Traces of oil can

plastic components in the door.

the appliance as this...

of these micro-organisms. Reducing
the temperature reduces their growth
rate.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
