DEFROSTING THE FREEZER
The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of ice on the walls reaches 5-6 mm. � � Unplug the appliance. Remove the packs of food from the freezer and wrap them close together in newspaper. Store in a very cool place or thermally insulated bag. Leave the freezer lid open. Remove the internal defrost water drain plug (depending on model). Remove the external defrost water drain plug (depending on model) and reposition it as shown in figure (A). Place a bowl beneath the drainage channel to collect the residual water. If available, use the separator (B). Speed up defrosting by using a spatula to detach the ice from the freezer walls. Remove the ice from the bottom of the freezer. In order to avoid permanent damage to the freezer interior, do not use pointed or sharp metal instruments for removing the ice. Do not use abrasive products or heat up the interior artificially. � � � Dry the interior of the freezer compartment thoroughly. On completion of the defrosting, refit the plug. Switch on the appliance again.
