^
Place the lowest freezer drawer in
front of the appliance and direct the
outlet guide through the hole in the
drawer. Any defrosted water will then
collect in the drawer.
To speed up defrosting, a bowl of hot
water (not boiling) can be placed in the
appliance.
We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers such as hairdryers
for defrosting your freezer.
Never place electric heaters or can-
dles in the appliance to defrost it.
These can damage the plastic parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays, or
de-icers as they could contain sub-
stances which could damage the
plastic parts and which may cause a
build up of gases and pose a dan-
ger to health.

Mop up any residual water still in the
freezer section with a sponge or ab-
sorbent cloth.

tion.
