Defrosting

The Refrigerator is Defrosted Automatically

The rear wall of the fridge compartment covers with frost when the compressor is running, and defrosts when the compressor is off.

The water from the thawing frost is collected in the drain channel on the rear of the fridge, fed through the drain hole into the collection compartment in the base, and then evaporated.

Freezer Compartment Defrosting

During use and when the door is opened, moisture is deposited as frost inside the appliance, particularly on the evaporator. This frost must be removed from time to time using a soft plastic scraper. Under no cir- cumstances use hard or pointed objects for this purpose.

The freezer compartment should always be defrosted when the layer of frost has reached a thickness of approx. 4 millimetres; however at least once a year. A good time for defrosting is when the appliance is empty or contains little food.

1 Warning!

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

Do not use defrosting sprays, they can be hazardous to your health and/or contain substances that damage plastics.

01. About 12 hours prior to defrosting push the ambient switch, so that the frozen goods can build up a sufficient chill reserve.

Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food.

2.Remove frozen food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and store it, covered, in a cool place.

3.Unplug or switch off of mains.

4.Remove all the drawers. Place a bowl directly in front of the appli-

ance to collect the water from defrosting and pull out the water drain conduit.

Tip: In order to speed up the defrosting process, place a pot of hot water in the freezer
