Advice on Using Freezer Drawers
The freezer compartments can be used with or without the drawers. However, the
bottom drawer needs to remain in position at all times (to maintain the correct
storage temperature).
The storage drawers can be easily removed. Pull the drawer towards you until it
reaches it’s stop position. Hold securely on both sides, lift the front of the drawer to
release and remove.
For cleaning advice see CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section.
It is generally more convenient to use the drawers but if a lot of food is to be stored
the drawers can be taken out and food placed directly onto the grids.
Ensure that packets/containers of food are thoroughly dry before placing onto the
grids.
When using the frozen food storage drawers, ensure that they are pushed back fully
before closing the door.
Food can be separated into different storage drawers for easy identification.
When lifting or removing the large deep drawer it is important to hold the side
handles and not the front handle.
WARNING: The freezer drawers can become heavy when fully loaded with food. Care
must be taken if attempting to lift or carry a full freezer drawer. It is recommended to
remove the required food, rather than the whole freezer drawer.
Note : It is important not to touch or move any of the freezer drawers/parts
with wet hands as it may cause freezer burn or discomfort.
Ice Tray
When making ice, use the tray provided. Take care not to overfill with water.
Uncovered food should not be placed near the ice tray as it can affect the flavour of
the ice.
Note : Empty, wash and refill the ice tray periodically to ensure freshness.
USEFUL AD
VICE
Note : If the top drawer is not used DO NOT
store food on the top shelf beyond the
flange of the interior freezer wall (RZA16
and RZM16 only). This indicates the load
limit. Food beyond this line will limit the air
circulation and affect the performance of
the freezer.
