DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT

No Frost freezers provide chilled air circulation around the storage areas and prevent the formation of ice, thereby completely eliminating the need for defrosting.

Frozen items don't stick to the walls, labeling stays legible and storage space remains neat and clear.

HOW CAN INCREASE THE FREEZER

COMPARTMENT CAPACITY

In certain models you can increase the freezer compartment capacity by:

- Removing the flap (if present).

- Removing the turntable only.

Please refer to the figures beside to see how to proceed.
