The freezer compartment will become progressively
covered with frost. This should be removed with the
special plastic scraper provided, whenever the
thickness of the frost exceeds 1/4".
During this operation it is not necessary to switch off
the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the
inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out
and it is advisable to carry out this operation when
the appliance is empty.
To carry out complete defrosting proceed as follows:
1. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers
of newspaper and put it in a cool place.
2. Turn the thermostat control (E) to the «O» setting.
3. Leave the door open.
4. Introduce the plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating as shown in the figure and place
underneath a basin to collect the defrost water.
5. When defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly.
Turn the thermostat control to a medium setting
between 2 and 4 and, after letting the appliance run
for at least two hours in the «fast freeze» mode,
replace the previously removed food into the
compartments.
Important
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs
during defrosting may shorten their
storage life.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could dam
age the appliance beyond repair.
Important
In the event of a power failure causing
the temperature within your freezer to
rise, do not re-freeze the food without
checking its condition. The following
guidelines should assist you:
Ice-cream: once thawed should be
discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: if soft should be
cooked and used up.
Breads & Cakes: can be re-frozen without
danger.
Shellfish: should be refrigerated and used
up quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: can be re-frozen pro
viding there are still ice crystals remaining
within them.
Small Joints: should be cooked and can
then be re-frozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: should also be cooked and re-
frozen as a cooked dish.
