Defrosting
1Warning!
•Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the excep- tion of those recommended in these operating instructions.
•Do not use defrosting sprays, they can be hazardous to your health and/or contain substances that damage plastics.
0If large quantities of frozen goods are in storage, press the fast freeze button about 12 hours prior to defrosting, so that the frozen goods can build up a sufficient chill reserve.
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food.
0Remove frozen food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and store it, covered, in a cool place.
0Unplug or switch off of mains.
0Remove all the drawers. Remove
the pedestal cover (see "Changing Over the Door Hinges" section).
Place the bottom drawer directly in front of the appliance to collect the water from defrosting and pull out
the water drain conduit.
Tip: In order to speed up the
defrosting process, place a pot of hot water in the freezer
compartment. In addition, remove pieces of ice that break away before defrosting is complete.
0After defrosting, thoroughly clean the freezer compartment and interior fittings ( see "Maintenance and Cleaning" section).
