Defrosting
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has formed.
Alternatively you may switch off the freezer at the socket outlet and pull out
the mains plug. Extract the water conduit and put in a water container. 6
hours before the defrosting, please set the thermostat knob at the “7” position
to make sure the food is at the lowest temperature when you get it out. All
food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool
place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Remove the freezer basket. Leave the lid open. Containers of warm water may
be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting. Never use hair
dryers, electrical heaters or other electrical appliances for defrosting. When
the defrosting is finished, flow out the water which collects at the bottom of
the freezer as shown below and dry the interior thoroughly. Switch on the Fast
Freeze and leave it on for about three hours.
1. A drain outlet is designed at the bottom of the freezer liner, and when
defrosting, remove its rubber cover , then the defrosting water flows out
and is discharged from the drain pipe.
2. Extract the water conduit by 20-25mm until the water hole
can be seen.
3. Twist the water conduit until the arrow points downward.
4. After defrosting is done, make sure there is no more water
coming out before out the water conduit in place and make the
arrow point upward.
