Defrosting
When the frost has reached a
thickness of up to 4mm it can be
removed using the ice scraper
provided with the appliance. During
this operation it is not necessary to
disconnect the appliance from the
mains and remove the food. Never use
metal tools for this operation.
For complete defrosting (once or twice
a year) proceed as follows:
- turn the thermostat (E) dial to the
«OFF» position (0) or disconnect the
appliance from the mains.
- Remove any food from inside the
freezer and fridge, wrap it in several
sheets of newspaper and store in a
cool,dry place.
- Leave the door open
-
Sweep off the melting water with a
cloth or sponge in direction of sides
of the cooling plates.The melting
water swept down gathers in the
outlet channel practically formed in
the bottom of the appliance and
can be removed according to
figure.
- Put an adequately high bowl or dish
under the outlet.
- Clean and dry thoroughly.
- Reconnect the appliance to the
mains or reset the thermostat to a
functioning position.
- The bowl in figure is not a piece of
accessories to the appliance!
-
After letting the appliance run for at
least two hours in fast freeze mode,
replace the previously removed
food into the compartment.
