4.14 Shutting off the refrigerator
n If the refrigerator is to be taken out of ser-
vice for an extended period of time, close
the onboard shut-off valve and the cylinder
valve .
n Switch off the refrigerator by pressing but-
ton (1) (s. 4.5). Keep button (1) pressed for
3 seconds. The display disappears and the
appliance is fully switched off .
n Release the locking mechanism (Fig. 30-31)
of the door lock by pushing it and shift it to
the front. If the door is shut in this position,
a small gap is nevertheless kept open to
prevent formation of mildew.

the refrigerator has less work to do and the
unit has more reserves.

4.15 Defrosting
As time goes by, frost builds up on the fins
inside the refrigerator. A layer of frost thicker
on one side may occur and does not represent
a malfunction. When this layer of frost is about
3 mm thick, the refrigerator should be defro-
sted.
n Switch off the refrigerator, as described in
section
Shutting of the refrigerator
.
n Remove all food and the ice cube tray.
n Leave the refrigerator door open to allow air
to enter and to prevent formation of mildew.
n After defrosting (freezer compartment and
fins free of frost), wipe both cooling com-
partments dry with a cloth.
Note: Water thawing in the main compartment
of the refrigerator runs into an appropriate
container at the back of the refrigerator. From
there, the water evaporates.
The layer of ice must never be removed
forcibly, nor may defrosting be accelera-
ted using a heat source!
CAUTION!
