Defrosting
After a longer period of operation a layer of frost or ice can build up
on the cooling plates in the freezer compartment. This will increase
the energy consumption of the freezer. The cooling plates should
therefor be defrosted regularly.
• Switchtheapplianceofftodefrost.Pulloutthemainsplug.
• Wrapthefrozenfoodinpaperorblanketsandstoreinacool
place.
• Leavethedooroftheapplianceopenwhiledefrosting.After
defrosting mop up the remaining water and clean the appliance.
Do not use any mechanical devices or other
artificial aids for defrosting other than those
recommended by the manufactur er.
