In normal use, ice and frost will form on

the evaporator plates. If allowed to

accumulate, this will impair the

efficiency of the freezer and increase

the consumption of electricity.

Do not scrape ice and frost off the

evaporator plates as this can

damage them and render the

appliance unusable.

The freezer should be defrosted from

time to time. It must be defrosted if a

layer of ice approx. 0.5 cm thick has

accumulated. It is best to defrost when

only very little food or no food at all is

left in the freezer.

Before defrosting

^ Switch on the Super freeze function

at least 4 hours before defrosting to

ensure frozen food retains its cold

reserve for longer when taken out of

the freezer.

^

Remove the frozen food from the

freezer and place it in another

freezer, or in a cool box, or wrap it in

several layers of newspaper or cloths

and store in a cool place until the

freezer is ready for use again.

^

Take all the freezer drawers out

except for the bottom one, which is

used for collecting the defrosted

water.

To defrost

Carry out the defrosting procedure

as quickly as possible if food has

not been placed in another freezer.

The longer the food is left out at

room temperature, the faster it

defrosts.

^

Switch off the appliance using the

On/Off button, and remove the plug.

The On/Off indicator light will go out.

^

Leave the freezer door open.

To speed up defrosting, two bowls of

hot water (not boiling), with plates

underneath them, can be placed in the

appliance. Closing the door in this

instance will help retain the warmth and

speed up the defrosting process.

Do not use steam cleaning

apparatus to defrost the appliance.

Steam could reach the electrical

components and cause a short

circuit.

We do not recommend the use of

hot air blowers such as hairdryers

for defrosting your freezer.

Never place electric heaters or

candles in the appliance to defrost

it. These can damage the plastic

parts.
