In normal use, ice and frost will form on
the evaporator. If allowed to
accumulate, this will impair the
efficiency of the freezer and increase
the consumption of electricity.
Do not scrape ice and frost off the
evaporator plates as this can
damage them and render the
appliance unusable.
The freezer should be defrosted from
time to time. It must be defrosted if a
layer of ice approx. 0.5 cm thick has
accumulated. It is best to defrost when
only very little food or no food at all is
left in the freezer.
Before defrosting
^
Switch on the Super freeze function
at least 4 hours before defrosting to
ensure frozen food retains its cold
reserve for longer when taken out of
the freezer.
^
Remove the frozen food from the
freezer and place it in another
freezer, or in a cool box, or wrap it in
several layers of newspaper or cloths
and store in a cool place until the
freezer is ready for use again.
^
Take all the freezer drawers out
except for the bottom one, which is
used for collecting the defrosted wa-
ter.
To defrost
Carry out the defrosting procedure
as quickly as possible if food has
not been placed in another freezer.
The longer the food is left out at
room temperature, the faster it
defrosts.
^
Switch the appliance off using the
On/Off dial, switch off at the socket
and remove the plug.
^
Open the freezer door.
To speed up defrosting, two bowls of
hot water (not boiling) with plates
underneath them can be placed in the
appliance. You can also place a little
warm water in the bottom drawer.
Closing the door in this instance will
help retain the warmth and speed up
the defrosting process.
We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers such as hairdryers
for defrosting your freezer.
Never place electric heaters or
candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic
parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays or de-
icers, as they could contain
substances which may damage the
plastic parts and which may cause a
build-up of gases and pose a
danger to health.
