Important! Defrost the freezer when the

frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5

mm.

To remove the frost, do these steps:

1. Switch off the appliance.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in sev-

eral layers of newspaper and put it in a

cool place.

3. Leave the door open.

4. When defrosting is completed, dry the

interior thoroughly and refit the plug.

5. Switch on the appliance.

6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain

the maximum coldness and run the ap-

pliance for two or three hours using this

setting.

7. Reload the previously removed food in-

to the compartment.

Warning! Never use sharp metal tools

to scrape off frost from the evaporator

as you could damage it. 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.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long

periods, take the following precautions:

1. Disconnect the appliance from electrici-

ty supply.

2. Remove all food.

3. Defrost, if foreseen

4. Clean the appliance and all accesso-

ries.

pleasant smells.

to check it once in a while to prevent the

food inside from spoiling in case of a power

failure.
