Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food always
separated with freshly placed food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the cooling
compressor will work until the food is completely
frozen. This can temporarily cause excessive
cooling of the refrigeration compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult to open
just after you have closed it, don’t worry. This
is due to the pressure difference which will
equalize and allow the door to open normally
after a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just after
closing the door. This is quite normal.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with water and
place it in the freezer.
As soon as the water has turned into ice, you
can take out the ice cubes.
Never use sharp objects such as knives or
forks to remove the ice cubes. There is a risk
of injury!
Let the ice cubes slightly thaw instead, or put
the bottom of the tray in hot water for a short
moment.
Defrosting of the appliance
Excessive build-up of ice will affect the
freezing performance of your appliance.
It is therefore recommended that you defrost
your appliance at least twice a year, or
whenever the ice build-up exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your appliance when there is only
little or no food in it.
Take out the deep-frozen food from the
drawers. Wrap the deep-frozen food in several
layers of paper, or a blanket, and keep it in a
cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch off the circuit
breaker to start the defrosting process.
Take out the accessories (like shelf, drawer
etc.) from the appliance and use a suitable
container to collect the thawing water.
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to remove
thawing water if necessary
Keep the door open during defrosting.
For quicker defrosting, place containers with
warm water inside the appliance.
Never use electrical devices, defrosting
sprays or pointed or sharp-edged objects such
as knives or forks to remove the ice.
After the defrosting is done, clean the inside.
Reconnect the appliance to the mains. Place
the frozen food into the drawers and slide the
drawers into the freezer.
