6.1 Manual defrosting
The layer of frost or ice builds up faster if the appliance is
opened often or if the food is warm when placed inside.
However, a thick layer of ice will increase the appliance‘s
energy consumption. You should therefore defrost the appli-
ance regularly.

u Do not use electric heaters or steam cleaners, naked flames
or defrosting sprays for defrosting.
