water comes out of the freezer section and onto the floor.
o Once all the ice that has built up has melted, then the inside of
the freezer compartment should be dried thoroughly. Failure to
do this will result in immediate ice build up when the appliance is
turned back on.
o With dry hands, reconnect your appliance to your mains supply.
You should select thermostat position 5 for a 24 hour period,
before returning it to the normal temperature setting of 3.
o You should not attempt to freeze fresh food inside the freezer
compartment until this 24 hour time period has elapsed.

(e.g. hair dryer). Do not use sharp metal objects to
remove the ice on the freezer, as this could cause damage
to the refrigerant system.
