DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment during

trough into a special container at the back of the
appliance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water
drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator
compartment channel to prevent the water
overflowing
and dripping onto the food inside.
For this purpose use the tube cleaner provided with
the appliance.

Never use sharp metal
tools to scrape off frost from the
evaporator as you could damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any
artificial
means to speed up the
thawing process other than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
About 12 hours prior to defrosting set
a lower temperature in order to build
up
sufficient
chill reserve in case of
any interruption in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form on the
freezer shelves and around the top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a
thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1.
Switch off the appliance or pull out electrical
plug from the wall socket.
