DEFROSTING
A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically. The defrosting water
runs to the drain tube via a collection
container at the back of the appliance
(1). (see diagram) During defrosting
water droplets may form at the back
of the fridge compartment where
concealed evaporator is located.
Some droplets may remain on the
liner and refreeze when defrosting
is completed. Do not allow items in
the fridge to touch the back wall as
the water droplets will make them
wet. Do not use pointed or sharp
edged objects such as knives, forks
to remove the droplets which have
frozen.
If at any time the defrost water does
not drain from the collection channel,
check to ensure that no food particles
have blocked the drain tube. The drain
tube can be cleared by pushing the
special plastic plunger provided down
the drain tube (2). If the frost layer
reaches about 1/4”(7 mm), reduce
the setting (i.e. from 4 to 1) to restart
automatic defrosting.
B) FREEZER COMPARTMENT
·
Defrosting is very easy and without
mess thanks to a special defrost water
collection space.
·
Defrost twice a year or when a frost
layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed.
·
To start defrosting procedure switch
off the appliance at the socket outlet and
pull out the mains plug.
·
All food should be wrapped in
several layers of newspaper and stored
in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
·
Containers full of warm water may
be placed carefully in the freezer to
speed up the defrosting.
·
Do not use pointed or sharp edged
objects such as knives, forks to remove
the frost.
·
Never use hairdryers, electrical
heaters and other similar electrical
appliances for defrosting.
·
When defrosting has finished,
sponge out any defrost water which
collects at the bottom of the freezer and
dry the interior thoroughly. Insert the plug
in to the wall socket and switch on the
electricity supply. (Fig. 1 & 2)
