Defrosting and cleaning the
chest freezer
WARNING
Risk of explosion and injury!
Improper handling of the appliance can
lead to serious injuries and damage!
■
The thermal insulation of your ap-
pliance is made of sensitive insulat-
ing material. Therefore, do not use
any electrical heating equipment, ice
scrapers, knives, defrosting sprays,
boiling water or any kind of aid with
an naked fl ame, for example candles,
to speed up the defrosting process.
The thermal insulation and the interi-
or are scratch- and heat-sensitive and
can melt.
Health hazard!
An increase in the temperature of the
frozen food during defrosting can short-
en the shelf-life of the frozen food.
■
Ensure that the frozen food is kept
suffi ciently cool during defrosting.
CAUTION
Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to skin damage and injuries.
■
Never touch the inside walls or frozen
food with wet hands. Injuries can also
occur with dry hands though.
■
Use a dry towel to remove the frozen
food.
NOTICE
When cleaning, please note:
■
Never use soap, sharp, granular, soda
or solvent-based or abrasive clean-
ing agents. All-purpose cleaners with
neutral pH are recommended.
■
The door seals can be damaged by
unsuitable cleaning agents. Use care
products only on the outer surfaces.
■
Use only soft cloths for cleaning.
■
Defrost the appliance before it forms
a layer of ice and frost of more than
5 mm. Excessive ice formation inside
the appliance can break the door.
■
Do not use any mechanical devices or
means other than those recommend-
ed by the manufacturer to accelerate
defrosting.
NOTICE
Defrost the freezer in winter when the
outside temperature is low. You can
then store the food on a balcony or sim-
ilar while you are cleaning the freezer.
Otherwise, you can wrap the frozen
food thickly in newspaper and place it
in another freezer in a cool room. You
also have the option of using an insu-
lated bag.
1. At least 3 hours before disconnecting,
turn the thermostat control (4) to “6”.
This way, the frozen food gets a cold re-
serve and does not thaw so fast.
2. After 3 hours, turn the thermostat control
to “0”.
3. Disconnect the mains plug from the sock-
et.
4. Take out the frozen food.
5. Unscrew the defrost water drain cap in
the base of the freezer anti-clockwise to
drain the defrost water.
