5. Mode d'emploi

Once the freezer is set up, follow these guidelines for operation:

• Réglage de la température : Locate the temperature control dial (refer to Figure 5). Turn the dial to your desired setting. A colder setting is typically indicated by a higher number or a 'Max' position. Allow several hours for the freezer to reach the set temperature before loading food.
• Chargement des aliments : Do not overload the freezer. Ensure there is space for air to circulate around items. Avoid placing hot food directly into the freezer; allow it to cool down first.
• Ouverture de porte: Minimize the frequency and duration of door openings to maintain a stable internal temperature and conserve energy.
• Congeler des aliments frais : For optimal freezing, place fresh food in the upper compartments or directly on the shelves (if applicable) to allow for faster freezing.

6. Entretien

Un entretien régulier garantit la longévité et l'efficacité de votre congélateur :

• Nettoyage: Unplug the freezer before cleaning. Clean the interior regularly with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects.
• Dégivrage: Over time, frost will accumulate inside the freezer. When the frost layer becomes about 5mm thick, defrost the appliance. To defrost, unplug the freezer, remove all food, and leave the door open. Place towels at the bottom to absorb melting ice. Do not use sharp objects to remove ice. Once defrosted, clean and dry the interior thoroughly before plugging it back in.
• Joint de porte: Regularly check the door seal for any damage or gaps. A damaged seal can lead to inefficient operation. Clean the door seal with a damp tissu.
