o IMPORTANT: It is normal to get some ice droplets forming on
the back wall of the appliance. The formation of ice droplets does
not indicate an appliance fault.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
The frost in the freezer compartmen t should be removed periodically.
You can use a plastic scrap er to keep down the amount of frost that
builds.
IMPORTANT: The freezer compartment should be defrosted at least
twice a year. The number of times that you need to defrost it, will
depend on the setting of your thermostat and how much food you
freeze and store in the compartment.
o The day before you defrost, you should switch on the super frost
setting. This will make sure that the food contained in the
freezer section is frozen properly.
o Whilst de frosting the appl iance, the food should be removed
from the compartment and wrappe d in several layers of pape r
and stored in a cool place. The food s rise in temperature will
shorten its storage life and theref ore the food should be used
within a relatively short period of time.
o DO NOT PLACE FOOD BACK IN THE FREEZER
COMPARTMENT THAT HAS STARTED TO THAW.
o Disconnect the appliance from your mains supply.
o Leave the door to t he freezer compart ment open. You can place
a bowl of warm water inside th e freezer compartment to speed
up the defrost process.
