Defrosting The Unit
Frost may build up in the freezer compartment after it has been used for a period of time. Scrape away the frost
using a plastic scraper (included).
Do not use a metal or sharp instrument to scrape away the frost, nor should you use
any electrical appliances to aid defrosting.
We recommend that defrosting should be carried out when the frost layer builds up to 10 mm. Choose a time
when the stock of frozen food is low, follow these procedures:
1.
the frozen food should be put into another freezer. If this is not possible, wrap the food in several sheets of
newspaper or large towels and then a thick rug or blanket to keep it cool.
2.
To remove melted frost from the drain hole, place a suitable container underneath it. Remove the drain
cap on the front of the unit. Reach down into the freezer and unscrew the drain plug.
3.
Scrape away the frost using the plastic scraper. Defrosting the remaining frost can
be sped up by placing a bowl of hot water inside the freezer compartment and
closing the door. As the solid frost loosens, scrape it away with the plastic scraper
and remove.
4.
After all the water has drained away, replace the drain plug and then the drain
cap.
5.
When defrosting is complete, clean the interior and exterior of the unit.
6.
When the compartment is completely clean and dry, close the door, switch on the freezer again and turn
the thermostat control dial to 6.
7.
Leave the unit to cool down for an hour, and then you can start placing frozen food inside the unit.
Remember to turn the thermostat control dial to 4 after 4 hours.
Cleaning The Unit
•
Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with warm water using a
sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry.
•
Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make sure that the
door is closed to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside the unit.
