DEFROSTING
The freezer compartment will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 1/4". During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs. However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out and it is advisable to carry out this operation when the appliance is empty. To carry out complete defrosting proceed as follows: 1. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place. 2. Turn the thermostat control knob � to the «O» setting. 3. Leave the door open. 4. Remove the three large drawers. 5. When defrosting is completed, remove the water that has collected in the small bottom drawer and dry the interior thoroughly. Turn the thermostat control to a medium setting between 2 and 4 and, after letting the appliance run for at least two hours in the «fast freeze» mode, replace the previously removed food into the compartments. Important A temperature rise of the frozen food packs during defrosting may shorten their storage life. Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage the appliance beyond repair.
