Defrosting can be accelerated by placing
bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the
freezer.
• Loosen the drainage channel from its
resting position, push it in according to
the illustration and collect a water con-
tainer.
• carefully scrape off the ice when it starts
to thaw. Use a wood or a plastic scraper
• when all the ice has melted, clean and
wipe the cabinet dry, then put the drain-
age channel back in place.
• switch on the cabinet, insert the plug into
the wall socket and replace the frozen
foodstuff.
Important! 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.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. disconnect the appliance from electricity
supply
2. remove all food
3. defrost and clean the appliance and all
accessories
4. leave the door/doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
Important! If the cabinet will be kept on,
ask somebody to check it once in a while to
prevent the food inside from spoiling in
case of a power failure.
WHAT TO DO IF…
During operation of the appliance some
smaller but annoying trouble can often oc-
cur, which does not require calling a techni-
cian out. In the following chart information is
given about them to avoid unnecessary
charges on service.
Important! The operation of the appliance
goes with certain sounds (compressor and
circulating sound). This not means a
trouble, but a normal operation.
Important! The appliance operates
discontinuously, so the stopping of
compressor does not mean being no
current. That is why you must not touch the
electrical parts of the appliance before
breaking the circuit.

properly.

ble (all feet and wheels should be
