•
For the removal of heavy ice deposits,
disconnect the appliance from the
mains supply, empty the contents into
cardboard boxes and wrap in thick
blankets or layers of paper to keep cool.
Defrosting will be most effective if carried
out when the freezer is nearly empty
and should be carried out as quickly
as possible to prevent an unnecessary
increase in the temperature of the
contents.
•
Do not use metal or sharp scrapers,
mechanical devices or other means to
accelerate the defrosting process. An
increase in temperature of frozen food
during defrosting will shorten the storage
life. Keep contents well wrapped and cool
while defrosting is taking place.
•
Dry the inside of the compartment with a
sponge or a clean cloth.
•
To accelerate the defrosting process,
place one or more bowls of warm water
in the freezer compartment.
• Examine the contents when replacing
them in the freezer and if some of the
packages have thawed out, they should
be eaten within 24hours, or be cooked
and re-frozen.
•
After defrosting is complete, clean the
inside of the appliance with a solution
of warm water and a little bicarbonate
of soda, then dry thoroughly. Wash all
removable parts in the same way and
reassemble. Reconnect the appliance
to the mains supply and leave for 2 to
3 hours on setting number '3' before
introducing the food back into the freezer.
