Defrosting the freezer
The freezer compartment has to be defrosted manually. When the thickness of frost or ice on
the shelves exceeds 5cm, the freezer should be defrosted. A few hours before defrosting, set
the thermostat on MAX (position 5) in order to further lower the temperature of the frozen
foods.
To start the defrost process, set the thermostat knob at "OFF" position.
1. Switch off the freezer turning the knob to the 0 (stop) setting and pull out the mains plug,
open the top lid and remove all the food to a cold place.
2. There is a water conduit at the interior bottom of the freezer, when defrosting, extract
the rubber cover, defrosted water will drip into the hole and flow out. (NOTES: PLEASE
KEEP THE RUBBER COVER WELL DURING THE DEFROSTING AND PUT IT BACK AFTER
DEFROSTING IS DONE)
3. Extract the water conduit on the exterior of the freezer by 20-25mm until the water hole
can be seen.
4. Twist the water conduit until the arrow points downward.
5. After defrosting is done, make sure there is no more water coming out before out the
water conduit in place and make the arrow point upward.
Important Notes:
•
Do not use pointed or sharp‐edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the frost.
•
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for
defrosting.
Cleaning
•
Before cleaning, disconnect the plug from the electrical mains. Clean the outside using only
water and a gentle liquid detergent or an ordinary detergent for washable surfaces (such
as a window-cleaning product). Never use products containing abrasives or substances
which may attack the lacquered or painted parts, acids or chemical solvents. Use a sponge
or a soft cloth.
•
Do not use steam cleaners to clean the inside;
•
Never wash removable plastic parts in the dishwasher; use only warm water and washing-
up liquid or water and vinegar. Take care not to wet the electrical lighting components with
water or detergents.
•
Clean the gaskets with warm water and then dry.
•
To allow the freezer to operate at full efficiency, periodically also clean the condenser on
the rear with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
