Defrosting the freezer

• Remove the drawers and any food
they may contain from the freezer
compartment. Place frozen food on the
cold accumulator (if supplied). Store
the drawers in the coldest place
possible.

electricity socket.
• After defrosting the appliance, empty
the defrosting water that has gathered.
Clean and dry the bottom of the
freezer compartment with a sponge.
Special defrosting sprays
Observe the instructions and warnings
provided by the spray manufacturer
strictly.

Special defrosting sprays should be
used with the utmost caution. These

gas or contain solvents or propellants
which may harm the plastic parts on
the unit or even be harmful to the
health.
Practical defrosting advice
• To speed the defrosting process up, a
pan with very hot (not boiling) water
can be placed on a protective support
base inside the freezer compartment.
