Defrosting

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a 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 from overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.

The freezer compartment, however, will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with a plastic scraper, whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.

However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete

defrosting should be carried out and it is advisable to carry out this operation when the appliance is empty.

To carry out complete defrosting of the freezer compartment proceed as follows:

1.pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the thermostat knob to the «O» setting;

2.remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place;

3.leave the door open, insert the plastic scraper in the appropriate seating at the bottom centre, placing a basin underneath to collect the defrost water;

4.when defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly and refit the plug;

5.keep the scraper for future use;

6.turn the thermostat knob back to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket. After letting the appliance run for at least half an hour, replace the previously removed food into the compartment.
