About 12 hours prior to
defrosting, set a lower
temperature, in order to
build up sufficient chill
reserve for the interruption
in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the
top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1.
Switch off the appliance, or pull out
the electrical plug from the wall
socket.
2.
Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put
it in a cool place.
WARNING!
Do not touch frozen
food with wet hands.
Hands can freeze to the
goods.
3.
Leave the door open and insert the
plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating at the bottom centre, placing
a basin underneath to collect the
defrost water.
In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in
the freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice that break away
before defrosting is complete.
4.
When defrosting is complete, dry the
interior thoroughly and keep the
scraper for future use.

Switch on the appliance.
Wait at least 3 hours before putting the
food back into the freezer compartment.
