Defrosting
The larder fridge defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs to the drain tube via a collection channel and is evaporated in a special container (1) at the back of the appliance (see diagram).
During defrosting water droplets may format the back of the larder fridge where concealed evaporator is located. Some droplets may remain on the liner and refreeze when defrosting is completed.
Do not use pointed or sharp edged objectssuch as knives, forks to remove the droplets which have refreezed.
If at any time the defrost water does not drain from the collection channel, check to ensure that no food particles have blocked the drain tube. The drain tube can be cleared by pushing the special plastic plunger provided down the drain tube.

Freezer Compartment
Defrosting is very easy and without mess thanks to a special defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed.
To start defrosting procedure switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.
All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Containers full of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting.
