The heat from the unfrozen food may cause the frozen food to thaw on the surface. · Once frozen, re-arrange the products and put them as close as possible to each other. Remove the ventilation grille (see the section "Removing the ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean under the cabinet. Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille) and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consumption. When moving the cabinet, lift it by the front edge to avoid scratching the floor. Defrosting the freezer A certain amount of frost will always form on the freezer shelves and around the top compartment. Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm. Remove the freezer drawers and place them on top of each other by turning every other drawer one half turn. The frozen products can also be packed closely together and be kept in a cold location, e. g. Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer. Loosen the drainage channel from its resting position and push in according to the illustration and place it in the bottom freezer drawer where water can collect. When all the ice has melted, clean and wipe the cabinet dry, then put the drainage channel back in place. Switch on the cabinet and replace the frozen foodstuff. Never use a hair drier or other heating appliances to speed up defrosting. Excessive heat may damage the plastic interior, and humidity could enter the electric appliance making it live.
