Defrosting
The freezer can not be equipped with automatic defrosting set since the
deep-frozen and frozen foods do not endure melting temperature.
When small frost and ice occurs scrape off and remove frost and ice coating
with the supplied plastic scraper.
When ice coating is so thick that it cannot be removed with the plastic
scraper,the cooling gill have to be defrosted.Frequency of defrosting
depends on usage (generally 2-3 times a year).
Take the frozen foods out of the appliance,and put them into a basket lined
with paper or cloth.Store them in a possibly cool place or replace them into
another refrigerator.
Pull out the mains plug from the mains socket,so both parts of the
appliance are out of operation.
Open the doors of both parts of
the appliance and clean the
refrigerator according to 'Regular
cleaning'.
Maintain and clean the freezer as
following:
Sweep off the melting water with
a cloth or sponge in direction of
sides of the cooling plates.
The melting water swept down gathers in the outlet channel practically
formed in the bottom of the appliance and can be removed according to
figure.
Put an adequately high bowl or dish under the outlet. The bowl in figure is
not a piece of accessories to the appliance! Wipe the surfaces after
defrosting and leading the water out.
Put the mains plug into the mains socket and put foods taken out back to
their places.
It is recommended to operate the appliance at the highest position of the
thermostatic control for some hours so that it can reach the sufficient
storing temperature as soon as possible.
Warning!
Never use metal tools to scrape off the frost
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 rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting , may shorten
their safe storage life.
