Defrosting, cleaning and maintenance

Defrosting
The items stored in the freezer and the
humidity of the surrounding air gradu-
ally cause frost and ice to form inside the
freezer. A thin layer of frost or ice does not
affect freezer performance, but the thicker
the layer, the higher the energy consump-
tion.
Never use electrical apparatus or sharp im-
plements as these may damage the inside
of the appliance.
Quick defrosting
Small amounts of loose frost can be re-
moved using a plastic scraper.
Defrosting has to be done regularly to pre-
vent ice building.
The ice build depends on the use of the
freezer. The more daily door openings – the
more manual defrosting.

Thoroughly defrosting
When the layer of frost and ice exceeds
4-5 mm the freezer should be completely
defrosted. It is recommended that defrost-
ing be performed when there are no items
stored in the freezer.
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Collect the water using plentiful of
paper or towels.
The freezer can be turned on again when
all ice is gone and all parts have reached
ambient temperature.
