Defrosting
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of approxima-
tely 7 mm (1/4”) has formed
Alternatively you may switch off the freezer at the socket
outlet and pull out the mains plug
6 hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat
knob at „MAX” position to make sure the food is at the
lowest temperature when you get it out. All food should
be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in
a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Remove the freezer basket and leave the lid open. Con-
tainers of warm water may be placed in the freezer to
speed up the defrosting.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such
electrical appliances for defrosting
When defrosting has finished drain the water in the
bottom of the freezer as illustrated below, then wipe
dry thoroughly. Switch fast freeze on, (Fast Freeze – the
orange switch) and leave the appliance for approxima-
tely 4 hours.
Don’t use sharp edged objects such as knives or forks to
remove the ice
Extract the rubber cover from the water conduit inside
the freezer (1) (NOTE: PLEASE KEEP THE RUBBER CO-
VER SAFE DURING THE DEFROSTING AND PUT IT BACK
AFTER THE DEFROSTING IS COMPLETE )
Extract the water conduit outside the freezer and put
in a water container. Extract the water conduit by 20-
25mm until the water hole can be seen.
Twist the water conduit until the arrow points down-
ward
After defrosting is done, make sure there is no more
water coming out before replacing the cap and position
the arrow points upward.
