In order to speed up the defrosting proc-
ess, place a pot of warm water in the
freezer compartment. In addition, re-
move pieces of ice that break away be-
fore defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the in-
terior thoroughly and keep the scraper for
future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. After two or three hours, reload the pre-
viously removed food into the compart-
ment.
Warning! 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.
