DEFROSTING YOUR CHEST FREEZER
For the most ecient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer
when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive or 5 to 10 mm thick. To minimize
disruption, choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.
Important! Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In
addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it
may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty. We recommend
using the plastic scraper provided with your unit.
Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
Unplug the freezer. The Power Supply light should be o (green light out).
During defrosting, the ice melts into the cabinet.
Remove the drain plug on the inside oor of the freezer by pulling straight out.
Place a shallow pan outside drain outlet. The defrost water will drain out.
Check the pan occasionally so the water does not overow.
Clean the interior of the freezer.
Replace the plug on the inside oor.
Reset the thermostat to desired setting.
Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour.
Switch on the temperature control to the highest setting for two hours before using,
and then adjust to normal level.
Return food to the freezer.
Helpful Tip. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help
speed the process. Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost
will help speed melting. If you must use a scraper- please use caution - it
is very easy to damage the freezer compartment and void your warranty.
