Cleaning the freezer compartment The freezer should be defrosted once or twice a year, or when too much frost has formed on the refrigerant grills. The formation of frost on the refrigerant grills is a normal occurrence. The amount and rate at which frost accumulates depends on room conditions and how often the door is open. Frost tends to form more on the upper grills. It is advisable to defrost when the freezer is nearly empty. If possible, activate the “Fast freeze” function 24 hours before defrosting the compartment. This will ensure that the food stored in the freezer compartment remains as cool as possible while defrosting takes place. Open the freezer door and remove all the food, wrapping it close together in sheets of newspaper and put in a very cool place or in a portable cooler.
