Defrosting - Belling BE815 Installation And User Instructions Manual

DEFROSTING

A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs
to the drain tube via a collectioncontainer 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.lf 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
Defrosting is very easy and without mess thanks to a special defrost collection
basin. Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has
formed. To start 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).
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 and dry the interior thoroughly. Insert the plug in to
the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.
