Defrost the freezer when the frost
layer reaches a thickness of about
3-5 mm.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1.
Switch off the appliance.
2.
Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
3.
Open the door.
4.
When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly.
5.
Switch on the appliance.
6.
Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the
appliance for two or three hours using
this setting.
7.
Reload the previously removed food in-
to the compartment.
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 ar-
tificial means to speed up the
thawing process other than those
recommended by the manufactur-
er. A temperature rise of the frozen
food packs, during defrosting, may
shorten their safe storage life.
