1. Switch off the appliance.

several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
3. Open the door.

the interior thoroughly.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to ob-
tain the maximum coldness and run
the appliance for two or three hours
using this setting.

WARNING!
Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost from the evapora-
tor 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 man-
ufacturer. A temperature rise of
the frozen food packs, during de-
frosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.
PERIODS OF NON-
OPERATION
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• remove all food
• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appli-
ance and all accessories
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent
unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some-
body to check it once in a while to pre-
vent the food inside from spoiling in case
of a power failure.
