To speed up defrosting, two bowls of
hot water (not boiling) with plates
underneath them can be placed in the
appliance. Closing the door in this
instance will help retain warmth and
speed up the defrosting process.

We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers such as hairdryers
for defrosting your freezer.

Never place electric heaters or
candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic
parts.

Do not use defrosting sprays or
de-icers, as they could contain
substances which may damage the
plastic parts and which may cause a
build-up of gases and pose a
danger to health.

After defrosting

^ Clean the freezer section and then

dry it thoroughly.

^ Close the appliance doors.
^ Plug the appliance back in, and then

switch it on.
The temperature displays will light
up.

^ Switch on the Super freeze function

so that the appliance can cool down
quickly. The indicator light will come
on.

^ Once the freezer section has reached

the required temperature, place the
food back in the freezer drawers and
slide the drawers back into the
freezer section.

^ Switch off Super freeze by pressing

the Super freeze button when the
temperature in the freezer is a
constant -18 °C or colder.
The indicator light will go out.
