Defrosting

A)

F

ridge 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

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).

Please flush with approximately 100

ml of

warm tap water, to ensure that the water

drains. If the blockage is still present, use

a suitable "refrigerator drain cleaning

tool", and flush with approximately 100ml

of warm tap water.

NOTE: Do not flush with excessive water,

this will cause the evaporator tray at the

back of the appliance to overflow and

cause a leak.

If the problem persists

please contact service.

B)

F

reezer compartment

Deep freezer compartment does not

perform automatic defrosting in order to

prevent decaying of the frozen food.

Defrosting is very easy and without mess

thanks to a special defrost collection

well.

Defrost twice a year or when a frost

layer

of around 7 mm (1/4”) 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 

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 well and dry the 

interior thoroughly. Insert the plug

in to the wall socket and switch on the 

electricity supply.

Warnings!

Never store products that contain 

inflammable propellant ga

s

(e.g. dispensers, spray cans etc.) or 

explosive substances.

Don’t cover the shelves with any 

protective materials, which may 

obstruct air circulation.

Do not allow children to play with the 

appliance or tamper with the controls.

Warning:

Do not use any copper pot, dish inside 

the cabinet!

Do not load any food without package!
