should be carried out as quickly as possible to prevent undue increase in temperature
of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate
the defrosting process.
• An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during defrosting will shorten
the storage life.
• Provided that the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area they should
keep for several hours.
• Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages
have thawed out it should be eaten within 24hours or be cooked and refrozen.
• After defrosting has finished clean the inside with a solution of warm water with a
little bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the
same way and reassemble. Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave
for 2 to 3 hours on setting number 7 before introducing the food back into the freezer.
Make sure the drain pipe is in place
before defrosting the freezer
