EN
Small quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be
frozen without adjusting the temperature control
knob. Take special care not to mix already frozen
food and fresh food.

Making ice cubes

Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it
in the freezer. Loosen frozen trays with a spoon
handle or a similar implement; never use sharp-
edged objects such as knives or forks.
Defrosting
A) Fridge compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The
defrost water runs to the drain tube via a collection
container at the back of the appliance (Item 5).
During defrosting, water droplets may form at the
back of the fridge compartment where a concealed
evaporator is located. Some droplets may remain
on the liner and refreeze when defrosting is
completed. Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
objects such as knives or forks to remove the
droplets which have refrozen. If, at any time, the
defrost water does not drain from the collection
channel, check that no food particles have blocked
the drain tube. The drain tube can be cleared with a
pipe-cleaner or similar implement. Check that the
tube is permanently placed with its end in the
collecting tray on the compressor to prevent the
water spilling on the electric installation or on the
floor (Item 6).
B) Freezer compartment
Defrosting is very straightforward and without mess,
thanks to a special defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7
(1/4") mm has formed. To start the defrosting
procedure, switch off the appliance at the socket
outlet and pull out the mains plug. All food should be
wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in
a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder). Containers of
warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to
speed up the defrosting. Do not use pointed or sharp-
edged objects, such as knives or forks to remove the
frost. Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other
such electrical appliances for defrosting. Sponge out
the defrost water collected in the bottom of the
freezer compartment. After defrosting, dry the interior
thoroughly. Insert the plug into the wall socket and
switch on the electricity supply.
