Defrosting · Non-use
Defrosting
1. After the SLT freezer is used for some time, a layer of frost may be formed; if too thick, it would
influence the refrigeration effect and increase power consumption. Therefore, the freezer must be
defrosted at certain interval, that is, upon the thickness reaching approximately 10mm.
2. Before defrosting, take out all the articles stored in the freezer and move them into another freezer
for preservation. For defrosting, open the door and place the freezer in a well-ventilated place.
3. After defrosting, remove the resultant water with a soft cloth or sponge, wipe it with a dry cloth, and
then turn it on, and finally load it with articles upon reaching the temperature setting.
4. To speed up defrosting, a flat-bottom container filled with warm water below 50 ℃ may be put inside
of the cabinet.
Non-use
If the freezer is not to be used for a long time, power supply should be cut off and the freezer should
be cleaned as described in previous sections. Open the door to have internal components dry, and then
store it. The discarded freezer should be far away from fire sources and sent to dedicated place for
disposal.
Warning
Do not defrost with an electric heater, a metal tool or an edged tool.
