To defrost
Carry out the defrosting procedure
as quickly as possible if food has
not been placed in another freezer.
The longer the food is left out at
room temperature, the faster it
defrosts.
^
Switch the appliance off.
^
Disconnect it from the mains.
^
Open the freezer compartment door.
^
Use a sponge or towel to soak up the
defrosted water.
To speed up defrosting, a bowl with hot
water (not boiling) can be placed on a
saucer in the freezer compartment.
Closing the door in this instance will
help retain warmth and speed up the
defrosting process.
We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers, such as hair dryers,
for defrosting your appliance.
Do not use a steam-cleaning
appliance to aid the defrosting
process. Steam could reach
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Never place electric heaters or
candles etc. inside the appliance to
defrost it. They will damage plastic
components.
Do not use defrosting sprays, or
de-icers as they could contain
substances which could damage
the plastic parts and which may
cause a build up of gases and pose
a danger to health.
After defrosting
^
Clean the appliance and then dry it
thoroughly.
Do not let water get into the
condensate channel and drain hole.
^
Reconnect to the mains and switch
the appliance back on.
^ Once the temperature in the freezer
compartment has reached the
required temperature, place the food
back into the freezer compartment.
