Defrosting

As time goes by, frost builds up on the fins
inside the refrigerator. A layer of frost thicker on
one side may occur and does not represent a
malfunction. When this layer of frost is about
0.118 inches (3 mm) thick, the refrigerator
Fig. 29
should be defrosted.
• Switch off the refrigerator, as described in
section 4.14 Shutting of the refrigerator.
• Remove all food and the ice cube tray.
• Leave the refrigerator door open to allow air
to enter and to prevent formation of mildew.
• After defrosting (freezer compartment
and fins free of frost), wipe both cooling
compartments dry with a cloth.
