Electrolux EN3480AOX - Manual (Page 37)

To remove the frost, follow the instruc-
tions below:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
CAUTION!
Do not touch frozen goods with
wet hands. Hands can freeze to
the goods.
3. Leave the door open and insert the
plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating at the bottom centre, placing
a basin underneath to collect the de-
frost water.
In order to speed up the defrost-
ing process, place a pot of warm
water in the freezer compartment.
In addition, remove pieces of ice
that break away before defrosting
is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry
the interior thoroughly and keep the
scraper for future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. After two or three hours, reload the
previously removed food into the
compartment.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could
damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any ar-
tificial means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING
CAUTION!
Before troubleshooting, discon-
nect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or com-
petent person must do the trou-
bleshooting that is not in this man-
ual. There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refriger-
ant circulation).
