Defrosting
Note
Approx. 4 hours before defrosting the
appliance, switch on super freezing so
that the food drops to a very low temper-
ature and can therefore be stored at
room temperature for a longer period.
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the frozen food containers with
the food in a cool location. Place the
ice pack (if enclosed) on the food.
2. Switch the appliance off.
3. Pull out the mains plug or remove the
fuse.
4. To accelerate the defrosting process,
place two pans of hot water on a trivet
in the appliance. Close the appliance
door to prevent heat from escaping.

5. Wipe up condensation with a cloth
or sponge.

7. Switch the appliance on again.
8. Put the frozen food back in the freezer
compartment.
