6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain the maximum
coldness and run the appliance for two or three hours
using this setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food into the com-
partment.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
as you could damage the appliance. 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.

the following precautions:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
3. Remove all food.
4. Defrost and clean the appliance and all accessories.
5. Leave the lid open to prevent unpleasant smells.
Important! If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody
to check it once in a while to prevent the food inside from
spoiling in case of a power failure.
