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.
About 12 hours prior to defrosting set a
lower temperature in order to build up
sufficient chill reserve in case of any
interruption in operation.
Defrost the freezer compartment when the
frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5
mm.

electrical plug from the wall socket.
