Defrosting

Defrosting the freezer

The items stored and the humidity of the air gradually cause frost and ice to form in the freezer. A thin layer of frost or ice does not affect freezer performance, but the thicker the layer, the higher the energy consumption. Loose frost can be removed using a plastic or wooden scraper.

Never use a knife or other sharp implement that might damage the inside of the freezer. When the layer of frost and ice exceeds

4-5 mm the freezer should be completely defrosted.

Proceed as follows:.

1.Press the Super Freeze button 4-5

hours before defrosting. This lowers the temperature of the items stored to approx.

-25°C, thus prolonging the length of time they remain frozen after having been removed from the freezer (see step 4 below).

2.Switch the freezer off by turning the thermostat button to 0 (min.).

3.Pull out the drain spout at the bottom

of the cabinet and place a bowl under it to collect defrost water (fig. 11). If the spout is frozen in place, lay a cloth which has been soaked in hot water over it for a few minutes.

4.Remove the items of food. Place them in a refrigerator or wrap them in newspaper to keep them as cold as possible.

5.Place a bowl of hot (but not boiling) water in the freezer.

6.To prevent the floor from becoming wet

GB

during defrosting, check progress from time to time and lay towels around the bowl on the floor to protect against ice and splashes. When all the frost and ice have melted, clean the inside of the cabinet with a mild detergent solution. Dry the freezer with a soft cloth.

7.Restart the freezer by turning the thermostat button to the required setting. If many items are to be returned to the freezer, activate the Super Freeze button. Remember to switch Super Freeze off again.

8.Return items to the freezer approx. 5 minutes after having switched it on.
