Defrosting
(Fig. 4, 5, 6)
Defrosting is very straightforward and without
mess thanks to a special defrost water collection
facility at the bottom of the freezer.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of
around 7 mm (1/4") has formed. To start the
defrosting procedure, switch off the freezer at
the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.
All food should be wrapped in several layers
of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g.
fridge or larder).
Remove all freezer drawers. The special defrost
collection basin collects the defrost water.
Containers of warm water may be placed
carefully in the freezer to speed up the
defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
objects such as knives or
forks to remove the frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters
or other such electrical
appliances for defrosting.
When defrosting has finished, close the
defrosting part and dry the interior thoroughly.
Press the fast-freeze switch, and leave it on for
about three hours.
