Defrosting

(Fig. 4, 5, 6)

Defrosting is very straightforward and without

mess thanks to a special defrost water collection

facility at the bottom of the freezer.

Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of

around 7 mm (1/4") has formed. To start the

defrosting procedure, switch off the freezer at

the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.

All food should be wrapped in several layers

of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g.

fridge or larder).

Remove all freezer drawers. The special defrost

collection basin collects the defrost water.

Containers of warm water may be placed

carefully in the freezer to speed up the

defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
objects such as knives or
forks to remove the frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters
or other such electrical
appliances for defrosting.

When defrosting has finished, close the

defrosting part and dry the interior thoroughly.

Press the fast-freeze switch, and leave it on for

about three hours.
