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.
m Warning
Never use electrical appliances,
defrosting sprays or open flames to
defrost the freezer, e.g. heaters, steam-
cleaning appliances, candles, oil lamps,
etc.
m Caution
Do not scrape away the layer of ice using
a knife or a sharp object. You could
damage the refrigerant pipes. If
refrigerant shoots out, it may ignite or
cause eye injuries.
Defrosting the appliance
1. Place the freezer drawers containing
the food in a cool location. Place the
ice pack (if enclosed) on the food.
2. Unplug the appliance from the mains.
3. Leave the door open.
4. Place a shallow bowl or pan below
the unit. Scrape away the frost using
a plastic scraper.
5. To accelerate the defrosting process,
place two pans of hot water on a
trivet in the appliance.
6. After defrosting, clean the appliance
and wipe the inside dry.
7. Connect the appliance and re-arrange
the frozen food.
