Some modern freezers allow you to adjust the internal temperature. By setting it to its highest setting for a short time, the frost will begin to melt gently. Consider placing absorbent towels around the appliance to prevent puddles.
Tip 2: Hot water vapor for a quick effect
A simple and effective method is to place a bowl of boiling water inside the freezer and close the door for a few minutes. The steam released will help soften the frost, making it easier to remove with a plastic spatula. Replace the hot water as soon as it cools to maximize the effect.
Tip 3: Use a fan to speed up the process
If the room where the freezer is located is warm enough, place a fan opposite the opening. The warmer ambient air will circulate inside, accelerating the melting of the frost. This method is particularly effective when combined with hot water vapor.
Absolutely avoid: sharp tools!
It may be tempting to scrape the ice off with a knife or screwdriver, but this method can damage the freezer walls and cause refrigerant gas leaks. Instead, use a plastic spatula or a cloth dampened with warm water.
