Defrosting the freezer
Do not use heaters or defrosting sprays in this appliance.
•Never use any metallic or sharp objects to remove the ice as this could damage the lining.
•The freezer compartment should be defrosted regularly to ensure the most efficient running of the freezer.
•Once the ice is more than 5 mm thick, the freezer must be defrosted.
•First remove the two lower freezer drawers.
•To speed up the process, put a bowl of warm water in the base of the freezer compartment.
•Once defrosting is complete, dry the inside of the freezer compartment with a sponge or clean cloth.
Care and cleaning

•The freezer sections should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Do not use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.
•Clean the drawers, compartment fronts and ice tray separately by hand using soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.
•Once cleaning is complete, then reconnect the power.
•If the appliance is not used for prolonged periods of time, unplug and clean the appliance. The doors should be left slightly open to prevent the formation of mildew and smell.
