The freezer compartment, however, will become
progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed with the special plastic scraper provided,
whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.
During this operation it is not necessary to switch off
the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
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.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the
inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out
as follows:
pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the
thermostat knob to the «O» setting;
remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of
newspaper and put it in a cool place;
Fig. 12
leave the door open, and insert the plastic scraper in
the appropriate seating at the bottom centre, placing a
basin underneath to collect the defrost water;
when defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly;
keep the scraper for future use;
turn the thermostat knob back to the required setting
or replace the plug in the power socket.
After two or three hours, reload the previously
D068
removed food into the compartment.
Important
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during
defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.
