To defrost
Carry out the defrosting procedure
as quickly as possible if food has
not been placed in another freezer.
The longer the food is left out at
room temperature, the faster it
defrosts.
^
Switch the appliance off.
^
Disconnect it from the mains. Switch
off at the wall and withdraw the plug
from the socket, or disconnect the
mains fuse or remove the screw-out
fuse in countries where this is
applicable.
^ Open the freezer compartment door.
^ Use a sponge or towel to soak up the
defrosted water.
To speed up defrosting, a bowl with hot
water (not boiling) can be placed in the
freezer compartment. Closing the door
in this instance will help retain warmth
and speed up the defrosting process.
Do not use a steam-cleaning
appliance to aid the defrosting
process. Steam could reach the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Never place electric heaters or
candles etc. inside the appliance to
defrost it. They will damage plastic
components.
Do not use defrosting sprays, or
de-icers as they could contain
substances which could damage
the plastic parts and which may
cause a build up of gases and pose
a danger to health.
After defrosting
^
Close the appliance door.
^
Insert the plug in the socket and
switch on at the mains. Then switch
the appliance back on.
^ Place the frozen food into the freezer
compartment again.
