DEFROSTING THE FREEZER
To save energy, we recommend routine removal of excess frost (3-4 mm) from the inside of the equip-
ment and the cooling grids. Never use sharp or pointed objects or metal tools, humidifiers or heaters,
hairdryers or anti-freeze sprays to do this job. They could irreparably damage the cooling circuit and be
a source of danger in equipment with R600a. We advise defrosting when the compartment is empty or
only containing a few items of food.
To defrost, proceed as follows:
- turn the thermostat switch to stop;
- take the plug out of the wall outlet or switch off the mains system;
- drain off water via the discharge to a basin;
- when all the frost has melted, take up the water with a sponge or cloth;
- clean and dry the walls;
- put the plug back in at the wall outlet and set the thermostat as desired (see the “Getting to know _
your freezer” section.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Remove the plug from the wall outlet before proceeding or disconnect the general power switch. To
clean the inside of the equipment and its fittings we suggest using water and vinegar (1 spoon for every
2.5 l water). Never use abrasives, detergent or soap. Clean the door sealings with water and dry care-
fully.
Never use a steam cleaner to defrost or clean the equipment. Steam can damage live parts in
the equipment and produce a short-circuit and/or electric shock. Steam also damages plastic parts.
PROLONGED DISUSE
If you go away for long periods, disconnect the equipment from the mains supply, empty, clean the in-
side and leave the door open (to prevent mould and bad odours forming).
TIPS ON FREEZING
Prevent products to be frozen coming into contact with products that are already frozen. Make sure
packets are dry, as this will prevent them from freezing together in a solid block.
- Always prepare food in individual portions, which are quicker to thaw out.
- To freeze the maximum quantity of food indicated on the technical data plate, proceed as follows:

24 hours before freezing.
- Never freeze food in the baskets as they are only suitable for storage.
- For fast freezing, arrange the packaged food with the biggest surface areas in contact with the inside
walls and then transfer to the storage baskets when freezing is complete. Only open the freezer when
necessary and even then as briefly as possible.
- 26 hours after the start of freezing put the thermostat back to the energy saving setting.
- Small quantities of food (up to 3 kg) may be frozen
by placing them directly against the walls
of the freezer.
