[. . . ] This should be removed with a plastic scraper, whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. 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 as follows: 1. pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the thermostat knob to the «O» setting; 2. remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place; 3. when defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly; 5. turn the thermostat knob back to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket. After two or three hours, reload the previously removed food into the compartment. Important: Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it. Do not use a maechanical 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. Nettoyage extérieur De nombreux détergents spécifiques pour les surfaces de cuisine contiennent des agents chimiques pouvant corroder/endommager les parties en plastique de cet appareil. Il est donc recommandé de ne laver le revêtement extérieur de cet appareil qu'avec de l'eau chaude et un petit peu de détergent liquide pour assiettes. Lavez la carrosserie avec de l'eau tiède savonneuse. Passez de temps en temps un produit à polir. Dépoussiérez le condenseur situé à l'arrière de l'appareil à l'aide d'une brosse ou d'un aspirateur. Une accumulation de poussière risquerait de diminuer le rendement de l'appareil. Arrêt prolongé Lorsque l'appareil doit rester à l'arrêt pendant un certain temps, prenez les précautions suivantes: débranchez la prise de courant; videz l'appareil; dégivrez-le et nettoyez-le à fond; laissez les portes entrouvertes pour faire circuler de l'air, de façon à éviter les mauvaises odeurs.

Lorsque la porte est ouverte, si l'ampoule ne s'allume pas, il faut contrôler qu'elle soit bien vissée; si cela n'élimine pas le problème, mettre une autre ampoule qui ait la même puissance. La puissance maximale est indiquée sur le diffuseur. D411 CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SPARE PARTS If the appliance is not functioning properly, check that: · · · · the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains power switch is on; there is an electricity supply (find out by plugging in another appliance); the thermostat knob is in the correct position.

No further food to be frozen should be added during this period; only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs; prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required; wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight; do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter; lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food; water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt; · · it is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time; do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc. ) in the freezer compartment as they may burst.
