Defrosting

The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of the white frost has reached about 4 mm; but at least once a year in any case. A convenient time for defrosting is any time when the appliance is empty, or only minimally loaded.

1 Warning!

•Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the excep- tion of those recommended in these operating instructions.

•Do not use defrosting sprays, because they may be health endange- ring and/or contain substances damaging to plastics.

0About 12 hours prior to defrosting push the FAST CHILL/-FREEZE but- ton, in order to build up sufficient chill reserve for the interruption in operation.

Caution! Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands. Hands can freeze to the goods.

0Remove frozen goods, pack them in several layers of newspaper, cover them and store them in a cool place, e.g. in a refrigerator.

0Switch off refrigerator and freezer and remove plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or the fuse.

0Remove all the drawers. Remove

the pedestal cover (see "Reversing the door" section).

Place the bottom drawer directly in front of the appliance to collect the water from defrosting and pull out

the water drain conduit.

Tip: In order to speed up the

defrosting process, place a pot of hot water in the freezer

compartment. In addition, remove pieces of ice that break away before defrosting is complete.

0After defrosting thoroughly clean the freezer interior, as well as interior accessories (see section: "Maintenance and Cleaning").
