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
defrosts.
^ Switch the appliance off at the socket
and remove the plug.
^ Open the freezer section door.
^ Use a sponge or towel to soak up the
defrosted water.
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 warmth and
speed up the defrosting process.
We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers such as hairdryers
for defrosting your appliance.
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
substances which could damage
the plastic parts and which may
cause a build-up of gases and pose
a danger to health.

^ Clean the appliance, and then dry it
thoroughly.
Do not let water get into the
condensate channel and drain hole.
^ Insert the plug in the socket and
switch the appliance back on.
^ Switch on Super freeze so that the
freezer section can achieve the
required temperature quickly.
^ Once the temperature in the freezer
has reached the required
temperature, place the food back in
the freezer section.
