Switching off the appliance
If your appliance is going to be switched off for longer periods, it
should be left opened to prevent odours from building up inside.
If your appliance has a lock, set the lock in the “closed” position
with the doors open and keep the key well away from small
children to prevent accidents.
Ice and frost layers which build up to a certain thickness on the
inside wall act as insulation and prevent the dispersion of the
coldness. These must be removed from time to time. To remove
the layers of ice from the inside walls
，
use a plastic or wood
scraper with no sharp edges. When doing this, remove the
drawers and lay a cloth on the bottom of the appliance to catch
the ice as it is scraped off so that it can be easily removed.
The method least likely to damage your appliance when
removing the layers of ice is to defrost it.
Defrosting
Danger Warnings:
Never use electrical appliances to defrost your appliance,
such as a hair dryer, fan heater, dehumidifiers, de-icing
sprays or anything with a naked flame.
The plastic inside of your appliance could melt and the
escaping gas or foam could be ignited by sparks or by the
naked flame
On no account should a steam cleaning device be used to
defrost the layers of ice in the appliance (great risk of an
electric shock)
