Defrosting
For the duration of defrost, wrap up the frozen products in multi-layers of paper
(e.g. newspapers) and store in a cool place or in a refrigerator.
Because the temperature of the frozen products increases, it is better to process them
as soon as possible as the maximum frozen time is shortened by the procedure.
The layer of ice in the device should be regularly defrosted (at least 2 times per year).
To defrost the device entirely, disconnect it from electric power supply (pull the plug!)
and leave the door open as long as the ice has fully thawed.
To collect water produced during defrost, place an appropriate container underneath
the device.
