Automatic defrosting of
refrigerating compartment
The refrigerating compartment features
automatic defrosting. In some periods,
however, frost may form on the rear wall of
the refrigerator. This normally happens
when many fresh food items are stored in
the refrigerator or in summer when the
refrigerator is filled with beverages to be
cooled. In situations such as these the
compressor must run for long periods of
time to cool the food items. As automatic
defrosting takes place while the
compressor is at a standstill, the
refrigerator may not defrost completely
before the compressor restarts. In
situations such as these manual
defrosting is required or help must be
called in to change the defrost function.

Any loose frost on the evaporator can be
removed using a plastic or wooden
scraper. Never use a knife or a sharp
