Instruction for use
B) Freezer compartment
Defrosting is very straightforward and without
mess, thanks to a special defrost collection
basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of
around 7 (1/4") mm has formed. To start the
defrosting procedure, switch off the appliance 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).
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.
Sponge out the defrost water collected in the
bottom of the freezer compartment. After
defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly

.
Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch
on the electricity supply.
