Troubleshooting; Periods Of Non-Operation - AEG ABB68811LS Benutzerinformation

About 12 hours prior to
defrosting set a lower
temperature in order to
build up sufficient chill
reserve in case of any
interruption in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the
top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance or pull out
electrical plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put
it in a cool place.
CAUTION!
A temperature rise of the
frozen food packs during
defrosting may shorten
their safe storage life.
Do not touch frozen
goods with wet hands.
Hands can freeze to the
goods.
3. Leave the door open. Protect the
floor from the defrosting water e.g.
with a cloth or a flat vessel.
4. In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in
the freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice that break away
