Defrosting
After the appliance has been in operation for some time, a layer
of frost or ice will form on the inside walls. This increases energy
consumption.
• Switch on SuperFrost the day before defrosting to give the food
a cold boost.
• Switch the appliance off to defrost. Pull out the mains plug.
• Wrap the frozen food, possibly still in the freezer basket, in paper
or blankets and store in a cool place.
• Remove the plug from the drain opening. Remove the dividing
wall or freezer tray and place underneath the appliance so that
the defrosted water escapes through the drain opening into the
divid ing wall or the freezer tray.
• Leave the lid open while defrosting. After defrosting mop up the
remaining water and clean the appliance.
Do not use any mechanical devices or other
artificial aids for defrosting other than those
recommended by the manufactur er.
StopFrost system
This system reduces the forma-
tion of frost or ice so that the
appliance needs defrosting less
frequently.
The formation of frost or ice
depends on the operating and
ambient conditions.
Important note
To ensure correct function-
ing, the opening of the Stop-
Frost system at the back of
the lid must not be closed.
Cleaning
A failure to follow these instructions may result in the food being
spoilt.
Before cleaning, always disconnect the appliance
from the mains. Pull out the plug or switch o! the
fuse.
Surfaces in food storage area must be cleaned at
regular intervals. Only store foods that have been
packed.
If the door is left open for a lengthy period, the
temperature in the appliance's compartments may
rise dramatically.
• Clean the inside, equipment parts and outer walls with lukewarm
water and a little detergent. Do not use chemical solvents or any
cleaning agents containing sand or acid.
• Motor compartment ventilation
- Don’t open the cover.
- Clean the ventilation holes by using vacuum cleaner or brush.
- Advisable to clean after 3 to 6 month.
CAUTION
Risk of damage to the appliance components and
risk of injury due to hot steam.
Do not use steam cleaning equipment to clean
the appliance.
• Ensure that no cleaning water penetrates into the electrical
components or ventilation grille.
• Dry all parts well with a cloth.
• The ventilation grilles should be cleaned regularly. Dust deposits
increase energy consumption. Ensure that none of the wires or
other components are dislodged, bent or damaged.
• Do not damage or remove the type plate on the rear side of the
appliance. It is very important for servicing purposes.
If the appliance is left empty for a lengthy period, it must be
switched off, defrosted, cleaned and dried and the door is to be
left open to prevent mould formation.
