3. Leave the door open and insert the plastic
scraper in the appropriate seating at the
bottom centre, placing a basin under-
neath to collect the defrost water
In order to speed up the defrosting process,
place a pot of warm water in the freezer com-
partment. In addition, remove pieces of ice
that break away before defrosting is com-
plete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the in-
terior 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 artificial 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 stor-
age life.

• disconnect the appliance from electricity supply
• remove all food
• defrost
