The appliance and environment
This appliance does not contain gasses
which could damage the ozone layer, in
either its refrigerant circuit or insulation
materials. The appliance shall not be
discarded together with the urban refuse
and rubbish. Avoid damaging the cooling
unit, especially at the rear near the heat
exchanger. Information on your local
disposal sites may be obtained from your
municipal authorities.

Maintenance
Defrosting
Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling
chambers in form of frost and ice goes
with the operation of the appliance.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating
effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency as
the temperature increases in the cooling
chambers and they need more energy.
At this type of appliance defrosting the
cooling plate of the refrigerator is
automatic
without
intervention. The thermostatic control
interrupts the operation of compressor at
regular intervals for more or less time -
during this cooling is interrupted - the
temperature of the cooling plate goes
above 0 °C due to interior heating load of
the compartment, so defrosting occurs.
When the surface temperature of the
cooling plate has reached +3 - +4 °C the
thermostatic control restarts operation of
the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water
outlet leaded through the back into the
evaporative tray maintained on the top of
compressor and evaporates due to its
warmth.

Check and clean the outlet of
melting water coming during
defrosting
- a label inside the appliance warns
you for this. If it is clogged the melting
water gathered can cause earlier
failure as it can go to the insulating of
the appliance.
Clean the melting water outlet with the
supplied pipe scraper that can be seen in
the figure. The pipe scraper has to be
stored in the outlet.
The most typical case of clogging up in
the melting water outlet when you put
food wrapped in some paper into the
appliance and this paper contacts back
plate of the refrigerator and freezes to it.
If you remove the food right at this
moment the paper will tear and it can
cause clogging up in the outlet by getting
into it.
So you are asked to be careful - because
of the above - when placing foods
wrapped in paper into the appliance.
In case of increased demand e.g.
during heatwaves, the refrigerator
temporarily
happens
constantly. During this the automatic
defrosting is ineffective.
