DEFROSTING A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs to the drain tube via a collection container 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. If 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 The freezer compartment defrosts automatically. Warnings! The fan inside the freezer compartment circulates cold air. Never insert any object through the guard. Do not allow children to play with the freezer fan. Never store products that contain inflammable propellant gas (e.g. dispensers, spray cans etc.) or explosive substances. Don't cover the shelves with any protective materials, which may obstruct air circulation. Do not allow children to play with the appliance or tamper with the controls. Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure that you obtain the best possible performance from your appliance. 10
