Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall

Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall

As long as the defrost water runs to the channel and through the opening to the drain pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting of the appliance is assured. In case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (1/8”), ice should be manually defrosted.

Set the thermostat knob to the STOP position and leave the door open. Never use electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp objects. After completed defrosting, turn the knob to desired position and close the freezer door.

The cause of increased ice formation may be one of the following reasons:

-The door does not seal well (clean the gasket if it is contaminated, or replace it if it is damaged).

-The door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long.

-The food stored in the freezer was warm.

Noise

The cooling in the freezer is enabled by the compressor, this produces noise. How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it’s used and how old the appliance is.

During the operation of the compressor, a liquid noise is heard and when the compressor is not operating a refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.

Sometimes unusual and strong noises occur which is rather unusual for the appliance. This noise is often a consequence of inadequate placing. To avoid the noise make sure the appliance is placed and leveled firmly on a solid base. Make sure the appliance is not touching the wall or kitchen units standing next to it. And always make sure you check the accessories in the interior of the appliance; they should be placed correctly in their positions
