Defrosting
A)fridge compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically.
The defrosting water runs to the drain
tube via a collection container at the
back of the appliance (1) (see diagram).
During defrosting water droplets may
form at the back of the fridge
compartment where concealed
evaporator is located. Some droplets
may remain on the liner and refreeze
when defrosting is completed. Do not
use pointed or sharp edged objects
such as knives, forks to remove the
droplets which have frozen.
If at any time the defrost water does not
drain from the collection channel, check
to ensure that no food particles have
blocked the drain tube. The drain tube
can be cleared by pushing the special
plastic plunger provided down the drain
tube (2). If the frost layer reaches about
1/4” (7 mm), reduce the setting (i.e. from
4 to 1) to restart automatic defrosting.
B) freezer compartment
Deep freezer compartment does not
perform automatic defrosting in order to
prevent decaying of the frozen food.
Defrosting is very easy and without mess
thanks to a special defrost collection well.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer
of around 7 mm (1/4”) has formed. To
start the defrosting procedure, switch off
the appliance at the socket outlet and pull
out the mains plug.
All
food should be wrapped in several
la
yers of newspaper and stored in a cool
place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Remove all freezer drawers. Containers
full of warm water may be placed
carefully in the freezer to speed up the
defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp edged
objects such as knives, forks to
remove the frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical
heaters and other similar electrical
appliances for defrosting.
When defrosting has finished, sponge
out any defrost water which collects at
the bottom of the freezer well and dry the
interior thoroughly. Insert the plug
in to the wall socket and switch on the
electricity supply.
Warnings!
Never store products that contain
inflammable propellant gas
(e.g. dispensers, spray cans etc.) or
explosive substances.
Don’t cover the shelves with any
protective materials, which may
obstruct air circulation.
Do not allow children to play with the
appliance or tamper with the controls.
Warning:
Do not use any copper pot, dish inside
the cabinet!
Do not load any food without package!
