7.
Reload the previously removed food
into the compartment.
Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost as you could dam-
age the appliance. Do not use a
mechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recom-
mended by the manufacturer. A
temperature rise of the frozen
food packs, during defrosting,
may shorten their safe storage life.
The amount of frost on the walls
of the appliance will be increased
by the high level of the outer envi-
ronment humidity and if the frozen
food is not wrapped properly.
8.3 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1.
Switch off the appliance.
2.
Disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
3.
Remove all food.
4.
Defrost and clean the appliance and
all accessories.
5.
Leave the lid open to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
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.
