Freezer compartment
The freezer compartment
does not defrost automatically.
A layer of hoarfrost in the freezer
compartment will impair
refrigeration of the frozen food
and increase power consumption.
Regularly defrost the freezer
compartment.
m
Caution
Do not scrape off hoarfrost or ice
with a knife or pointed object. You could
damage the refrigerant tubes. Leaking
refrigerant may ignite or cause eye
injuries.
Proceed as follows:
Note
Switch on the Super function approx.
4 hours before defrosting. As a result,
the food will drop to a very low
temperature and can therefore be stored
for longer at room temperature.
1. Remove the frozen food and place
temporarily in a cool location. Place
ice pack (if available) on the frozen
food.
2. Switch off the appliance.
3. Pull out the mains plug or remove
the fuse.
4. To accelerate the defrosting process,
place a pan of hot water on a trivet
in the freezer compartment.
5. Wait until the layer of frost has thawed.
6. Wipe up condensation with a cloth
or sponge.
7. Wipe dry the freezer compartment.
8. Switch the appliance on again.
9. Put the frozen food back in the freezer
compartment.
