Defrosting the freezer

Do not use heaters or defrosting sprays in this appliance.

• Never use any metallic or sharp objects to remove the ice as this could damage the lining.

• The freezer compartment should be defrosted regularly to ensure the most efﬁcient running of the freezer.

• Once the ice is more than 5 mm thick, the freezer must be defrosted.

• First remove the two lower freezer drawers.

• To speed up the process, put a bowl of warm water in the base of the freezer compartment.

The lower drawer is specially designed to facilitate the defrosting process.

1. Open the water drain cover which is at the back of the freezer, as in ﬁgure 1.

2. Pull the drain plug out, as in ﬁgure 2. This is found at the bottom of the freezer compartment.

3. Put the water drain cover underneath the drain plug, as shown in ﬁgure 3. This will allow the defrosted water to be

collected in the drawer.

4. Empty the water from the drawer, and then replace the water drain cover and drain plug.

Once defrosting is complete, dry the inside of the freezer compartment with a sponge or clean cloth.

Care and cleaning

Always disconnect the appliance from the power before any cleaning or maintenance.

• The freezer sections should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Do not use

abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.

• Clean the drawers, compartment fronts and ice tray separately by hand using soap and water. Do not put them in

the dishwasher.

• Once cleaning is complete, then reconnect the power.

• If the appliance is not used for prolonged periods of time, unplug and clean the appliance. The doors should be left

slightly open to prevent the formation of mildew and smell.
