Defrosting
Frost might build up in the unit after it has been used for a period of time. Scrape
away the frost using a plastic scraper (not included).
Important: Do not use a metal or sharp instrument to scrape away the frost;
do not use any electrical appliances to aid defrosting.
Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low, follow these procedures:
1. Take out the food, turn the thermostat to the off position and leave the door
open. Ideally, the frozen food should be put into another freezer. If this is not
possible, wrap the food in several sheets of newspaper or large towels and
then a thick blanket to keep it cool.
2. Place a dry towel at the foot of the unit or drip tray. After the frost has
melted, discard the water and clean up. Wring out the soaked towel as
needed.
3. When defrosting is complete, clean your unit’s interior and exterior and
restart by turning its thermostat to the desired setting.
