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:

1.Remove the frozen food from the freezer, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a very cool place.

2.Switch off the appliance and pull out the plug, or remove or unscrew the safety fuses.

3.Leave the freezer compart- ment door open.

4.Insert the plastic scraper into the recess provided under the defrost water channel and pla- ce a collecting basin under it.

5.Once defrosting is completed keep the scraper for future use;

6.Turn the thermostat knob to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket.

Warning!

Never use metal tools to scrape off the frost

Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufac- turer.

A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting , may shorten their safe storage life.

Switching off the appliance

To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature regulator to position "0".

If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:

1.Remove all refrigerated and deep-frozen packages as well as ice trays.
