To ensure correct defrosting, a lower number should be selected on the thermostat and you should notice that the motor cuts out from time to time, which is correct. If you wish to return to a lower temperature, turn the thermostat to a higher number; however you should turn the setting lower occasionally to allow automatic defrosting. GB Storing deep-frozen foods The compartment marked reaches a temperature of ­18°C and is therefore suitable for storing ice-creams and deep-frozen food. For best use of the compartment, the following points shoud be noted: ensure that the deepfrozen products have been correctly stored by the shop-keeper; keep transport times from the shop to your home to a minimum; do not exceed the storage period specified by the manufacturer; when the freezer has not been used for some time; run it for at least two hours with the thermostat dial set to the lowest temperature before placing food inside and then reset to normal operation; do not open the door if there is a power failure. If the compartment is full and the failure does not last long, the food will not be affected; otherwise, you are advised to consume it soon after. Ice cubes Refrigerators with the compartment are provided with an ice cube tray. This tray must be filled with drinking water and placed in the compartment. Never use metal tools to detach the tray. 15 HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES Because of consumer demand, preservatives have been removed from many pre-prepared foods. This together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that safe handling and storage of food is even more important than ever. The following tips should help you to ensure that the food in your home is in as perfect condition as possible. Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your fridge as short as possible. Tests showed that the temperature of 1 litre of orange juice rose to 22°C in an hour between the supermarket and home. It then took 11 hours to get down to 7°C in the refrigerator. Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as possible. Remember that warm air is flowing in as you are deciding what to have for tea!Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate around each item. Cool cooked food as quickly as possible but do NOT place in the refrigerator until cool. (Leave food in a place as cool as possible in order that it can then be placed in the refrigerator as soon as possible). Do NOT mix raw and cooked meat, they must be in separate containers. [. . . ] Have you turned the thermostat to the correct setting?Has the door been left open causing the temperature to rise? If, after the above checks, there is still a fault, call your local Zanussi Service Centre, whose address can be found in the accompanying Customer Care Booklet, and can also be found in your local telephone directory under «Z».
