Defrosting
Observe the information when you
want to defrost your appliance.
Defrosting in the freezer com-
partment
As the frozen food must not start
thawing, the freezer compartment
does not defrost automatically. A
layer of hoarfrost in the freezer com-
partment impairs refrigeration of the
frozen food and increases power
consumption.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
Regularly defrost the freezer com-
partment.
1. Switch on Super freezing approx.
fourhours before defrosting.
→"Switching on manual Super
freezing", Page43
This means that the food reaches
very low temperatures and it can
be stored for longer at room tem-
perature.
2. Remove the frozen food container
with the frozen food and temporar-
ily place it in a cool location. Place
ice packs (if available) on the
frozen food.
3. Switch off the appliance.
→Page42
4. Disconnect the appliance from the
power supply.
Unplug the appliance from the
mains or switch off the circuit
breaker in the fuse box.
5. To accelerate the defrosting pro-
cess, place a pan of hot water on
a trivet in the freezer compartment.
6. Wipe up the condensation water
with a soft cloth or sponge.
7. Rub the freezer compartment dry
with a soft, dry cloth.
