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).

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 use pointed or sharp edged objects such as knives, forks to remove the droplets
which have frozen.
If at any time the defrosted 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
Deep freezer compartment does not perform automatic defrosting in order to
prevent decaying of the frozen food.
Defrosting is very straightforward and without mess, thanks to a special defrost
collection basin. Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 (1/4”) mm
has formed.
To start the 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).
Remove all freezer drawers.
Containers 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 or forks to remove the
frost. Never use hair dryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for
defrosting. Sponge out the defrost water collected in the bottom of the freezer
compartment. After defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly.
Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.
