• Do not use defrosting sprays, they can be hazardous to your health

and/or contain substances that damage plastics.

Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could

stick to the food and can cause skin abrasions.

1. Switch on the FROSTMATIC function a few hours before defrosting to

make sure frozen food remains sufficiently frozen.

2. Remove frozen food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and store

it, covered, in a cool place.

3. Switch off the appliance and unplug it, or pull the fuse or switch off

the circuit breaker.

4. Remove all drawers except the bottom one.

The bottom drawer serves as a practical con-

tainer to collect the water from the thawing

ice. Pull out the drawer and insert the plastic

scraper in the special location to act as an

extension channel to collect the defrost

water.

Tip: To speed up the defrosting process, place

a pan with warm water in the appliance and

close the door. Remove pieces of ice that have fallen before they com-

pletely defrost.

5. After defrosting, thoroughly clean the freezer compartment and interi-

or fittings (see "Cleaning and Care" section).

6. Do not forget to switch the FROSTMATIC function off again.

sories, should be cleaned regularly.

Danger of electrical shock! Before cleaning switch the appliance off

and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or disconnect

from the electricity supply.
