To carry out complete defrosting proceed as follows:
1. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers
of newspaper and put it in a cool place.
2. Turn the thermostat control knob
setting.
3. Leave the door open.
4. Introduce the plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating at the base of the cabinet as shown in the

defrost water (see fig.).
5. When defrosting is completed dry the interior
thoroughly.
Keep the scraper for future use.
6. Turn the thermostat control to a medium setting
and, after letting the appliance run for at least two
hours in the «fast freeze» mode, replace the
previously removed food into the compartments.

Warning
Never use metal objects for defrosting your
appliance as it may get damaged.
Do not use a mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recommended by
the manufacturer.
A temperature increase of the frozen food
shortens its safe storage period.
