prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or
sealed properly.
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period of
time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.
Defrosting the appliance
!
Follow the instructions below.
Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any tools or
electrical devices other than the scraper provided, you may
damage the refrigeration circuit.
Remove frost regularly using the special scraper provided. If the
frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost manually:
1. The day before defrosting, turn the TEMPERATURE CONTROL
knob to the Superr setting (the yellow SUPER FREEZE indicator
light illuminates) to further cool the food.
2. After 24 hours set the TEMPERATURE CONTROL knob on ,
which will switch the refrigerator off.
3. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another
freezer or in a cool place.
4. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This
can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water
in the freezer compartment.
5. Certain appliances are fitted with the DRAIN SYSTEM to lead the
water outside: let the water flow into a container (see diagram).
6. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before
switching the appliance on again.
