MAINTENANCE
Manual Defrosting
• You should defrost the device after
each aging process.
To Defrost: Turn off the power but do
not unplug the power plug. Let the
device then defrost manually. Pay
attention to the container for
condensed water(K) and remove the
condensed water during the defrosting.
• Check container for the condensed water (k) regularly. It is located on the rear right
of the device. If necessary, remove the condensed water with a sponge.
If Your Device Is "Iced Up"
• Remove the meat from the device. Cover it with cling film or, if possible, place it in a foil bag
and refrigerate it in a suitable refrigerator. Switch off the device.
• Fill a pot with hot tap water (but no longer boiling) and place the pot on a cloth on the lower
metal shelf. Warning: Excercise caution when handling hot pot to prevent risk of scalding.
The steam will melt the ice within about an hour. The melted water will be collected in the
interior of the device and possibly in the container for condensed water (K). Remove the
pot and the cloth from the device. Wipe the water out of the interior and empty the drip tray
(K). Wipe the device dry with a soft cloth. Leave the device open for 1 hour so the device
can ventilate.
