Defrosting the freezer
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 10-15 mm.
The best time to defrost the freezer when it
contains no or only a little food.
To remove the frost, follow these
instructions:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it in a
cool place.
3. Leave the lid open , remove the plug from
the defrost water drain and collect all
defrost water on a tray. Use a scraper to
remove ice quickly.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly and refit the plug.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the
appliance for two or three hours using this
setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food into
the compartment.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost as you could damage the
appliance. Do not use a mechanical device or
any artificial means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recommended by
the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the
frozen food packs, during defrosting, may
shorten their safe storage life.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains
socket.
3. Remove all food.
4. Defrost and clean the appliance and all
accessories.
5. Leave the lid open to prevent unpleasant
smells.
Important! If the cabinet will be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a while to
prevent the food inside from spoiling in case
of a power failure.
