Defrosting The Freezer Compartment - BORETTI BKV-179 Notice D'emploi

Defrosting the Freezer Compartment

WARNING: Never use sharp metal tools, unless recommended by manufacturer, for this
operation as they can damage the refrigeration circuit.
After a period of time, frost will build up in certain areas in the freezer compartment. The frost,
accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically (use the plastic scraper
if available).
Complete defrosting will become necessary if the frost layer exceeds 3-5 mm to maintain the
efficiency of the freezer.
• The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to position "5" to freeze the foods
completely.
• During defrosting, frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in a
cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember to
use these foods within a relatively short period of time.
• Set the thermostat knob to position "0" and switch off the appliance.
• Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting. Remove the defrost water from the
compartment.
• This appliance is provided with a special drain system.
1. Pull out the bottom drawer
it to the cabinet front.
2. Pull out the drain pipe
the groove on the front side of the floor of the appliance.
3. If there is still water on the freezer floor, you can clear it away by using a sponge.
• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent.
Never use abrasive products or aggressive cleaning agents.
• Dry the inside of the unit, plug on the mains, and set the thermostat knob to position "5". After 24
hours, reset the thermostat to the desired position.
