8. Replace the drain-plug (if available}.
9. Close the appliance door, replace the plug in the socket and turn the aippliance on.
10. Now re-fi ll the frozen food .

To prevent frozen food from defrosting, carry out the defrosting procedure within a maximum of two hours to reduce significant rise in temperature of the frozen food that would shorten the storage life.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Door difficult to open?
   After closing the door it may be difficult to open it again for a few minutes. This is normal and means that door seal is working correctly. Just wait few minutes and you will be able to open the door easi ly.

2. No operation (appliance not running/ getting cold)
   • Is there a power failure?
   • Is the plug in good condition and properly plugged into the socket?

3. Appliance not working sufficiently/ ‘Red light’ is on
   • Is the lid of the appliance closed properly?
   • Is there heavy ice formation on the inner walls?
   • Is the appliance exposed to direct sunlight or heat source?
   • Have too much warm foods been put in the appliance?
   • The climatic class can be found on the rating lable in the back of the appliance. It specifies the ambient temperatures at which the appliance will operate correctly.Climatic class| Ambient temperature
   ---|---
