DEFROSTING THE FREEZER

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. Defrosting

can be accelerated by placing bowls

with hot water (not boiling) inside the

freezer.

CAUTION! Never use sharp metal

tools to scrape off frost from the

evaporator as you could damage it. Do

not use a mechanical device or any

artificial means to speed up the

thawing process other than those

recommended by the manufacturer. A

temperature rise of the frozen food

packs, during defrosting, may shorten

their safe storage life.

1. Switch off the appliance and pull out the plug

from the wall socket.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several

layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place.

3. Remove the freezer drawers.

4. Put insulating material around the drawers, e.g.

blankets or newspapers.

5. 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.

6. Carefully scrape off the ice when it starts to

thaw (use a wood or a plastic scraper).

7. When all the ice has melted, dry the interior

thoroughly and keep the scraper for future use.

8. Switch on the appliance and replace the frozen

foodstuff.
