Defrosting
To achieve better cooling and to save energy, defrost the appliance regularly. To start the defrosting process
turn the temperature control to the off state and disconnect the plug or turn off the fuse. Remove the food
items and keep covered at a cool location.
Open the water discharge channel at the appliance bottom and the water discharge opening at the appliance
front. Place a drip tray under in order to catch leaking water. When the ice has melted, wipe the condensate
away and dry the appliance interior. You may then restart the appliance by connecting the plug and turning
the temperature control.
