DEFROSTING
The items stored in the freezer and the humidity of the surrounding air gradually cause frost and ice to
form inside the freezer. A thin layer of frost or ice does not affect freezer performance, but the thicker the
layer, the higher the energy consumption. Small amounts of loose frost can be removed using a plastic
scraper.
Never use electrical apparatus or sharp implements as these may damage the inside of the
appliance.
When the layer of frost and ice exceeds 4-5 mm the freezer should be completely defrosted. It is
recommended that defrosting be performed when there are no or only a few items stored in the freezer.
Proceed as follows:
1. Leave the freezer lid open.
2. Position the partition under the defrost water drain.
3. Place a bowl of hot (but not boiling) water in the freezer, close the lid and wait approx. 30 minutes
before removing loose frost with the plastic scraper.
4. To prevent water from damaging the floor during defrosting, it is advisable to check the defrost water
tray from time to time and to cover the floor around the defrost water drain to protect against ice and
splashes. When all the frost and ice have melted, clean the inside of the appliance using water with a
mild, perfume-free detergent. Dry the freezer with a soft cloth.
5. Reconnect the power supply.
6. Return items to the freezer when the required temperature has been reached. Remember to reinsert
the stopper in the defrost water drain.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning
Before cleaning, disconnect the power supply and remove
all loose fittings. The appliance is best cleaned using warm
water (max. 85°C) with a little mild, perfume-free detergent.
Never use cleaning agents that scour. Use a soft cloth.
Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. It is important to
prevent water from entering the control panel.
The sealing strip around the lid must be cleaned regularly
to prevent discolouration and prolong service life. Use
clean water. After cleaning the sealing strip, check that it
continues to provide a tight seal. It is recommended that the
wire and tubular condensers on the rear of the appliance be cleaned. The ventilation grille must also be
kept free of dust and dirt. Clean it with a vacuum cleaner. If the appliance is not to be used for any
length of time, switch it off, disconnect the power supply, empty it, clean the inside and leave the lid
open to allow air circulation and prevent smells.
