DEFROSTING
A) Fridge compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The
defrost water runs to the drain tube via a collection
container at the back of the appliance.
During defrosting, water droplets may form at the
back of the fridge compartment where a 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 or forks to remove the droplets which have
refrozen.
If, at any time, the defrost water does not drain from
the collection channel, check that no food particles
have blocked the drain tube. The drain tube can be
cleared with a pipe-cleaner or
Pushing the special plastic plunger provided
down the drain tube (2).
Check that the tube is permanently placed with its
end in the collecting tray on the compressor to
prevent the water spilling. 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
Defrosting is very straightforward and without mess, thanks to a special defrost collection
basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 (1/4") mm 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 layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g.
fridge or larder).
Containers 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 or forks to remove the
frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting.
Sponge out the defrost water collected in the bottom of the freezer compartment. After
defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the
electricity supply.
