Miele KT 3534 Sed Operating And Installation Manual page 20

Carry out the defrosting procedure
as quickly as possible if food has
not been placed in another freezer.
The longer the food is left out at
room temperature, the faster it de-
frosts.
Switch the appliance off.
Open the freezer section door.
Use a sponge or towel to soak up
water from defrosting.
To speed up defrosting, a bowl with hot
water (not boiling) can be placed in the
freezer section. Closing the door in this
instance will help retain the warmth and
speed up the defrosting process.
We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers such as hairdryers
for defrosting your freezer.
Never place electric heaters or
candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic
parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays, or de-
icers as they could contain sub-
stances which could damage the
plastic parts and which may cause
the build up of gases and pose a
danger to health.

Clean the appliance and then dry it
thoroughly.
Make sure when cleaning the ap-
pliance that no liquid gets into the
condensate drain hole.
Switch on the appliance.
Place the frozen food into the freezer
section again.
