Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always
form on the freezer shelves and around
the top compartment. Defrost the
freezer when the frost layer reaches a
thickness of about 3-5 mm.
Remove the freezer drawers and place
them on top of each other by turning
every other drawer one half turn. Put
insulating material around the drawers,
e.g. blankets or newspapers.
The frozen products can also be
packed closely together and be kept in
a cold location, e.g. in the fridge.
Defrosting can be accelerated by
placing bowls with hot water (not
boiling) inside the freezer.
Loosen the drainage channel from its
resting position and push in according
to the illustration and place it in the
bottom freezer drawer where water
can collect.
Carefully scrape off the ice when it
starts to thaw. Use a wood or plastic
scraper. Do not use sharp objects as
these may damage the interior.
When all the ice has melted, clean and
wipe the cabinet dry, then put the
drainage channel back in place.
Switch on the cabinet and replace the
frozen foodstuff.
Never use a hair drier or other heating
appliances to speed up defrosting.
Excessive heat may damage the
plastic interior, and humidity could
enter the electric appliance making it
live.
