Maintenance and Cleaning
Defrosting
Defrost the freezing compartment whenever the layer of frost on the surface of the evaporator reaches
3 or 4 mm.
Important! Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a
sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty.
We recommend using a plastic scraper.
• When defrosting, remove all food and set the thermostat at the “OFF” position.
• Put the drip tray under the evaporator to collect melted water.
• After the frost has melted, discard the melted water and dry up the interior of refrigerator.
• The refrigerator can now be restarted by turning its thermostat to the desired setting.
Helpful Tip: Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the process.
Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting. If you must use a scraper,
please use caution—it is very easy to damage the internal compartment and void your warranty.
