simply twisting; do not use metallic instruments to
remove the trays from the freezer.

defrost water.
When defrosting is completed dry the interior
thoroughly.
Keep the scraper for future use.
Turn the thermostat knob to the desired position or
replace the plug in the socket. After letting the
appliance to run for two or three hours on the quick-
freeze setting, it is ready again for storing frozen
