Preparation of Ice Cubes

1.Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer compartment and leave to freeze.

2.To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it under running water for a few seconds.

Important! Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scra- per supplied.

Storage Goods Symbols/Freezing Calendar

¥The symbols on the drawers show different types of frozen goods.

¥The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indi- cated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing. The lower value applies to foods with high fat content.

¥By attaching the included index-tabs to the drawers, they can be marked according to which type of foods the individual compart- ments contain.

Defrosting

Refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigera- tor compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during nor- mal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.

Freezer

The freezer compartment, however, will become progrssively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the tickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.

However when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, comple- te defrosting should be carried out as follows:
