Cyclic and Compact Cleaning Care
Defrosting Model C170T
It is recommended that a freezer be defrosted when the frost is greater than 6mm thick. Remove all frozen food and wrap it in several layers of paper. Place food in the refrigerator compartment or a cool environment e.g. insulated picnic bin.
Switch the power off at the wall. The temperature control can remain at its normal setting. Remove the freezer baskets or shelves for ease of cleaning.
Whilst defrosting, leave the freezer door open. If you wish to reduce the defrosting time place a bowl of warm water in the freezer compartment and leave the door open. Keep the refrigerator compartment door closed.
Use the scraper supplied or a plastic spatula to remove any loose ice. Do not use knives or any other sharp instrument to remove the ice, otherwise the freezer surface may become permanently damaged.
Ensure that the defrosting of your freezer is carried out as quickly as possible. During defrosting a rise in temperature of frozen food above normal storage temperature can shorten the storage time of the food.
Wipe the freezer dry. Replace the frozen food. Switch the refrigerator on.
