Zanussi ZQF11431DA Manual Do Utilizador

Never use sharp metal tools to

scrape off frost from the evaporator

as you could damage it. Do not use

a mechanical 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.

About 12 hours prior to defrosting,

set a lower temperature, in order to

build up sufficient chill reserve for

the interruption in operation.

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.
1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out

electrical plug from the wall socket.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several

layers of newspaper and put it in a cool

place. 

Do not touch frozen goods with

wet hands. Hands can freeze to

the goods.

3. Switch on the appliance.

After three hours reload the previously removed

food into the freezer compartment.

checking that there is no water left from the

defrosting.

4. Clean the lower part of the appliance with a

vacuum cleaner.
