7.3 Defrosting the freezer

CAUTION!
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.
About 12 hours prior to
defrosting, set a lower
temperature, in order to build
up sufficient chill reserve for
the interruption in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out
electrical plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
WARNING!
Do not touch frozen
goods with wet hands.
Hands can freeze to the
goods.
3. Leave the door open and insert the
plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating at the bottom centre, placing a
basin underneath to collect the defrost
water.

8. TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in
the freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice that break away
before defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly and keep the
scraper for future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Turn the Temperature Regulator to the
Full Loaded position and leave to run
for at least 8 hours.
7. After the Red Indicator Light has gone
out, reload the previously removed
food into the compartments.
8. Adjust the Temperature Regulator
according to the quantity of the stored
foods.

7.4 Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Leave the door/doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
WARNING!
If the cabinet will be kept on,
ask somebody to check it
once in a while to prevent the
food inside from spoiling in
case of a power failure.
