In normal use ice and frost will form on
the evaporator plates. If allowed to ac-
cumulate, this will impair the efficiency
of the freezer and increase the con-
sumption of electricity.
The stop frost system reduces the build
up of ice and frost by approx. 70 % in
comparison to other appliances. Mois-
ture entering the appliance is quickly
collected and removed. This means
that it is not necessary to defrost the
appliance nearly as often.
Only use the scraper supplied with
the appliance to scrape off ice and
frost. Otherwise the evaporator
plates could be damaged making
the freezer unusable.
The freezer should be defrosted from
time to time. It must be defrosted if a
layer of ice approx. 5 mm thick has ac-
cumulated. It is best to defrost when
only very little food or no food at all is
left in the freezer.
^ Switch on the super freeze function at
least 4 hours before defrosting to en-
sure frozen food retains its cold re-
serve for longer when taken out of the
freezer.
^ Remove the frozen food from the
freezer and place it in another freezer
or cool box or wrap it in several lay-
ers of newspaper or cloths and store
in a cool place until the freezer is
ready for use again.
Carry out the defrosting procedure
as quickly as possible if food has
not been placed in another freezer.
The longer the food is left out at
room temperature, the faster it de-
frosts.
^ Switch off the appliance.
The temperature display will go out. If
this does not happen, then the safety
lock has been activated.
^ Disconnect and remove the mains
plug from the socket.
^ Pull the stopper out of the floor of the
appliance.
^ Place a freezer tray or a flat container
under the defrosting outlet. Any de-
frosted water will then collect in the
tray / container.
^ Leave the lid of the freezer open.
To speed up defrosting, a bowl of hot
water (not boiling) can be placed in the
appliance.
