"Stop Frost" system

In normal use, ice and frost will form on

the evaporator plates. If allowed to

accumulate, this will impair the

efficiency of the freezer section and

increase the consumption of electricity.

The "Stop Frost" system reduces the

build up of ice and frost by approx.

70 % in comparison to other

appliances. Moisture entering the

appliance is quickly collected and

removed. This means that it is not

necessary to defrost the appliance

nearly as often.

Do not scrape ice and frost off,

and do not not use any sharp edged

or pointed instruments to aid the

defrosting process.

They will damage the evaporator,

causing irreversible damage to the

appliance.

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 appliance.

Before defrosting

^

Switch on the Super freeze function

approx.1 day 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 place the cool pack on it,

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.

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 the appliance off.

^

Disconnect it from the mains.

^ Place a freezer tray or a flat container

under the defrosting outlet. Any

defrosted water will then collect in the

tray/container.

^

Wait until the stopper has defrosted,

and then pull it out of the floor of the

appliance.

^

Leave the lid of the freezer open.

To speed up defrosting, two bowls of

hot water (not boiling), with plates

underneath them, can be placed in the

appliance.
