Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form on

the freezer shelves and around the top com-

partment.

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer rea-

ches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.

Important! About 12 hours prior to

defrosting, set the Temperature regulator

toward higher settings , in order to build up

sufficient chill reserve for the interruption in

operation.

To remove the frost, follow the instructions be-

low:

1. Switch off the appliance.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several

layers of newspaper and put it in a cool

place.

Caution! Do not touch frozen goods with

wet hands. Hands can freeze to the

goods.

3. Leave the door open.

In order to speed up the defrosting proc-

ess, place a pot of warm water in the

freezer compartment. In addition, remove

pieces of ice that break away before defrost-

ing is complete.

4. When defrosting is completed, dry the in-

terior thoroughly.

5. Switch on the appliance.

6. After two or three hours, reload the previ-

ously removed food into the compartment.

Important! Never use sharp metal tools to

scrape off frost from the innerliner as you

could damage it.

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 peri-

ods, take the following precautions:

• disconnect the appliance from electric-

ity supply

• remove all food

• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appliance

and all accessories

• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-

pleasant smells.

If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to

check it once in a while to prevent the food in-

side from spoiling in case of a power failure.
