ΦTo carry out complete defrosting:

1.Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply. If the plug is inaccessible turn the thermostat control knob to „0“.

2.Remove any stored food, wrap in several layers of newspaper and store in a cool place.

3.Leave the door open.

4.Carefully draw the plastic drain spout out of the lower part of the appliance according to the direction of the arrow and place a tray of a suitable size in the position shown.

5.During defrosting, push the defrost water towards the edge of the cooling plates using a dry cloth or a sponge. It will be collected at the bottom of the appliance, from where it can be diverted into the tray and then disposed of.

6.To accelerate the defrosting process place a bowl of hot (not boiling) water inside the freezer and close the door.

7.When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly, replace the drain spout and close the door.

8.Turn the thermostat control knob back to a medium setting and leave to run for at least 4 hours with the 'fast freeze' switch on.

9.Replace the previously removed food.

Important

A temperature rise of the frozen food packs during defrosting may shorten their safe storage life.

Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as this could damage the appliance beyond repair.
