Putting the appliance out of
service
If you do not use the appliance for long
periods:
1. Remove all food from the appliance.
2. Switch off the appliance.
3. Defrost the appliance (see section
"Defrosting").
4. Clean the inside of the appliance (see
section "Cleaning the appliance").
5. To prevent odours from forming, leave
the appliance lid open.
Defrosting
A layer of frost on the container panels
impairs the cooling effect on the frozen
food and increases the power
consumption. You must regularly remove
this layer of frost.
General tips
n When putting food in or taking food
out, open the lid of the chest for as
little time as possible.
n Do not install the chest freezer in a
damp room. A high level of humidity
aids the formation of frost.
n Package fresh food so that it is as
air-tight as possible.

using a knife or a sharp object. You
could damage the refrigerant pipes. If
refrigerant shoots out, it may ignite or
