B) Freezer compartment
Deep freezer compartment does not
perform automatic defrosting in order to
prevent decaying of the frozen food.
Defrosting is very straightforward and
without mess, thanks to a special
defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a
frost layer of around 7 (1/4") mm
has formed. To start the defrosting
procedure, switch off the appliance at
the socket outlet and pull out the mains
plug. All food should be wrapped in
several layers of newspaper and stored
in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Containers of warm water may be
placed carefully in the freezer to speed
up the defrosting. Do not use pointed or
sharp-edged objects, such as knives or
forks to remove the frost.
Never use hair dryers, electrical heaters
or other such electrical appliances for
defrosting.
Sponge out the defrost water collected
in the bottom of the freezer
compartment. After defrosting, dry the
interior thoroughly. Insert the plug into
the wall socket and switch on the
electricity supply.
