Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment, however, will become
progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you could damage it.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on
the inner liner, complete defrosting should be
carried out as follows:
• pull out the plug from the socket;
• remove all stored food, wrap it in several lay-
ers of newspaper and put it in a cool place;
• keep the door open, and place a basin un-
derneath the appliance to collect the defrost
water;
• when defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly.
• Replace the plug in the power socket to run
the appliance again.
