Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form on the
freezer shelves and around the top compartment.
Important! Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of
newspaper and put it in a cool place.
3. Leave the door open.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thor-
oughly and refit the plug.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain the maxi-
mum coldness and run the appliance for two or
three hours using this setting.

What to do if...

Warning! Before troubleshooting, disconnect the
mains plug from the mains socket.
Only a qualified electrician or competent person must
do the troubleshooting that is not in this manual.
Problem
The appliance is noisy
The appliance does not operate.
The lamp does not operate.
The lamp does not work.
Possible cause
The appliance is not supported prop-
erly
The appliance is switched off.
The mains plug is not connected to
the mains socket correctly.
The appliance has no power. There is
no voltage in the mains socket.
The lamp is in stand-by.
7. Reload the previously removed food into the com-
partment.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could damage it. Do
not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to
speed up the thawing process other than those
recommended by the manufacturer. A temperature rise
of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.
