Each temperature rise reduces the keeping qualities of your frozen
food. Around 12 hours before defrosting your freezer, switch over to
FROSTMATIC to build up a low temperature reserve in the frozen food.
Warning!
• Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or
artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process.
• Do not use defrosting sprays, they can be hazardous to your health
and/or contain substances that damage plastics.

Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could
freeze to the food.
Remove frozen food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and store
it, covered, in a cool place.
Switch off the appliance and unplug it, or pull the fuse or switch off
the circuit breaker.
Remove all drawers. Insert the plastic
scraper in the special location to act as an
extension channel and place underneath a
basin to collect the defrost water.
Tip:
To speed up the defrosting process,
place a pan with warm water in the appli-
ance and close the door.
Remove pieces of ice that have fallen
before they completely defrost.
