-To defrost the appliance completely (this should be done once or twice a year), turn off the green light and leave the door open until the frost has completely thawed.

-The freezer is equipped with a system to drain the water, simply place a container in position as shown in fig.2.

-You can speed this process by placing containers of

warm water in the appliance.
