Beko UF483APW manual Defrosting of the appliance

Defrosting of the appliance

•Excessive build-up of ice will affect the freezing performance of your appliance.

•It is therefore recommended that you defrost your appliance at least twice a year, or whenever the ice build-up exceeds 7 mm.

•Defrost your appliance when there is only little or no food in it.

•Take out the deep-frozen food from the drawers. Wrap the deep-frozen food in several layers of paper, or a blanket, and keep it in a cold place.

•Unplug the appliance or switch off the circuit breaker to start the defrosting process.

•Take out the accessories (like shelf, drawer etc.) from the appliance and use a suitable container to collect the thawing water.

•Use a sponge or a soft cloth to remove thawing water if necessary.

•Keep the door open during defrosting.

•For quicker defrosting, place containers with warm water inside the appliance.

•Never use electrical devices, defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp- edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the ice.

•After the defrosting is done, clean the inside (see the section ‘Cleaning and care’).

•Reconnect the appliance to the mains. Place the frozen food into the drawers and slide the drawers into the freezer.
