Page 34

Preparation of Ice Cubes

01. Fill ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water and place in a drawer and allow to freeze.

2.To remove the finished ice cubes twist the ice cube tray or hold under running water for a short time.

Warning! Do not, under any circumstances, free an ice tray which is frozen to the appliance with pointed or sharp edged objects. Use a spoon-handle or similar object.

Defrosting

The refrigerator is defrosted automatically

The electronics start the defrosting cycle in the refrigerator every time the compressor stops.

The water collects in the discharge trough at the back wall of the refrigerator, and is fed through the discharge opening in the catch tray at the compressor where it is evaporated.

Freezer Compartment Defrosting

Moisture is precipitated in the form of white frost in the freezer compartment during operation and when the door is opened, especially in the middle at the top. Remove this white frost from time to time with a soft plastic scraper, e.g. a dough scraper. Do not under any circumstances use hard or pointed objects for this purpose.

The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of the white frost has reached about 4 mm; but at least once a year in any case. A convenient time for defrosting is any time when the appliance is empty, or only minimally loaded.

1 Warning!

•Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the exception of those recommended in these operating instructions.

•Do not use defrosting sprays, because they may be health endangering and/or contain substances damaging to plastics.

01. About 12 hours prior to defrosting push the FROSTMATIC button, in order to build up sufficient chill reserve for the interruption in opera- tion.
