Defrosting and cleaning the
freezer
Before defrosting the freezer, first create ac-
cumulated refrigeration. To do this, set the
temperature controller (1) to the lowest tem-
perature at least 3 hours before defrosting.
The deep-frozen food will now not defrost as
quickly.
CAUTION
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to defl agration or explosion!
■
Never use defrosting sprays. They can
generate explosive gases.
■
Do not use any means other than
those recommended by the manufac-
turer to speed up defrosting. For ex-
ample, do not use any electric heat-
ing equipment, knives or devices with
an open fl ame such as a candle. The
thermal insulation and the interior
walls are scratch- and heat-sensitive
and can melt.
1. Set the temperature controller (1) to the
highest possible temperature (+6 °C), as
described in section “Setting the temper-
ature” on page EN-11.
2. Disconnect the mains plug from the
socket.
3. Remove the frozen food from the freez-
er.
4. Ensure that your food is kept cool
enough. If you do not have the opportu-
nity to store the frozen food in another
freezer in the meantime, wrap it up in a
thick layer of newspaper and store it in a
cool room or in an insulated bag while it
is defrosting.
5. Remove the drawers (7) from the freez-
er. Wash them in warm water with wash-
ing up liquid and dry thoroughly.
