Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always
form around the top compartment.
Important! Defrost the freezer when the
frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5
mm.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
3. Open the door.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly.

What to do if...

Warning! Before troubleshooting,
disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
Only a qualified electrician or compe-
tent person must do the troubleshoot-
ing that is not in this manual.
Problem
The appliance does not
operate. The lamp does
not operate.
10) If foreseen.
Possible cause
The appliance is switched off.
The mains plug is not connected
to the mains socket correctly.
The appliance has no power.
There is no voltage in the mains
socket.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the ap-
pliance for two or three hours using this
setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food in-
to the compartment.
Warning! Never use sharp metal tools
to scrape off frost from the evaporator
as you could damage it. Do not use a
mechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing
process other than those
recommended by the manufacturer. A
temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.

periods, take the following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• remove all food

the food inside from spoiling in case of a
power failure.

normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
