Thawing out products
Depending on requirements, you can
thaw products out in any of the following
ways: thawing out at room temperature,
inside the refrigerator, in a conventional
electric oven, in an air oven or in a
microwave.
Partially or completely thawed products
can be refrozen as long as they have not
been at a higher temperature than +3ºC
for more than 24 hours in the case of
meat or fish or they have not been at a
higher temperature than +3ºC for more
than 72 hours in the case of other
products. Make sure that the products
smell, taste and look alright, cook and
refreeze them. Do not exceed the best
before date for frozen foods.
Making ice cream
Warning!
Do not use electric ice-cream makers
inside the freezer compartment.
Making ice cubes
Figure I (not included on all models)
3/4 fill the ice tray with water. Place it in
the freezer compartment.
Separate the bottom of the ice tray from
the bottom of the freezer compartment
using a blunt object (e.g. the handle of a
spoon). To remove the ice cubes from
the tray, place the tray under running tap
water for a short period of time or bend it
slightly.

Defrosting and
cleaning the unit
Clean the refrigerator once a month.
You are recommended to clean the
freezer compartment each time you
defrost it.
Danger of electric shock!
Do not use any kind of vapour/steam
cleaning device. Hot steam could
damage the surfaces on the appliance or
its electric system. The electrical safety
of your appliance could be seriously
affected!
Do not scrape ice or frost using knives or
other sharp objects.
Do not damage the parts and
components which make up the cold
circuit, for example by piercing the
refrigerant fluid pipes.
If the refrigerant fluid spurts out under
pressure, then you are in danger of
injury to your eyes. The agent may also
catch fire.
Under no circumstances whatsoever are
you to use electric appliances or active
fire sources (e.g. candles or petrol
lamps) inside the appliance.
Defrosting the freezer
compartment
The freezer compartment does not
defrost automatically in order that the
products stored inside it do not thaw.
The presence of too much frost or ice in
the freezer compartment increases
energy consumption and may affect the
efficiency of the appliance.
