Your refrigerator has a manual defrosting system.
For your freezer to operate correctly, you must defrost it at least
once a year or when the layer of ice is more than 10mm thick.
NEVER USE ANY METAL ITEM OR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE TO
DEFROST YOUR FREEZER.
• Select a period when your freezer is not heavily loaded.
• Press the “Super Freeze” button 24 hours in advance (or depen-
ding on your model, set the thermostat to the maximum) so that
your frozen foodstuffs are at the lowest possible temperature.
•Remove the foodstuffs, wrap them carefully and place them in a
refrigerator or a very cold place.
• Disconnect your freezer.
• Free the ice with a wooden or plastic scraper. Remove the sheets
of ice and sponge away the melt water as it forms.
• Wash out the inside of the freezer with slightly soapy warm water.
NEVER use scouring powder, abrasive sponges or aggressive pro-
ducts (alcohol, thinners, etc.).
• Rinse with clean water, dry carefully and leave the lid slightly open
for a few minutes.
• Re-connect your appliance and activate the “Super Freeze” func-
tion (or set the thermostat to the maximum). Return your foodstuffs
to the freezer.
• Defrosting must be done as quickly as possible to avoid already
frozen food warming up significantly, which could reduce their
conservation time.

In the event of a power failure: if the power failure is expected, acti-
vate “Super Freeze” mode (or set the thermostat to the maximum)
24 hours in advance as far as possible. Do not open the appliance
at any time during the power failure.
Cold r
eserves: there are two possible cases:
Your freezer is ¾ full. In this case, the cold reserve thereby crea-
ted avoids any abnormal increase in temperature.
Your freezer contains very few products. In this case, we recom-
mend that you place plastic containers filled with water in your
freezer so that, once frozen, these will provide the essential cold
reserves.
If your appliance will be unused for a long time, disconnect it.
We recommend that you leave the lid ajar in order to air your free-
zer correctly.
