DEFROSTING THE APPLIANCE
DEFROSTING A CONVENTIONAL FREEZER
• Defrost the freezer when a layer of approximately 3 -5 millimetre of frost or ice
has built up.
• 24 hours before defrosting, activate the intensive freezing function to
additionally cool the food.
After this period, remove the food from the freezer and protect it from
defrosting.
• Switch off the appliance (see chapter 'Operating the appliance') and unplug
the power cord.
• Do not use any defrosting sprays as they may melt the plastic parts or harm
your health.
• Do not use a knife or any other sharp object to remove the frost, because you
may damage a pipe of the cooling system.
• Clean and dry the appliance interior (see chapter 'Cleaning the Appliance').
DEFROSTING A NO FROST FREEZER
• The NO FROST freezer will defrost automatically. Occasional frost that may
appear on the walls will disappear automatically.
• Build-up of ice or frost in the freezer compartment can be a result of abnormal
use of the appliance (door opened too frequently and/or too long, door not
properly closed etc.). In this case, unplug the appliance, remove the food from
the freezer and protect it from defrosting. Clean and dry the freezer interior.
Before returning the frozen food into the freezer, switch on the appliance and
select the desired setting.
