Refrigerator section
The refrigerator section defrosts
automatically.
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the refrigerator section
whilst it is in use. You do not need to
remove this, as it will defrost and
evaporate automatically with the
warmth generated by the compressor.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an
evaporation system at the back of the
appliance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are kept clean and
are never blocked so that
condensate can flow away without
hindrance.
Freezer section
The freezer section does not defrost
automatically.
In normal use, ice and frost will form in
the freezer, e.g. on the internal walls.
How much ice and frost accumulates in
the appliance will depend on the
following:
– whether the appliance door has
been opened frequently or left open
for a while.
– whether a large quantity of fresh food
has been placed in the freezer
section at once.
– whether there has been an increase
in the humidity in the room.
In certain circumstances too thick a
layer of ice can prevent the door from
closing properly. Too thick a layer of ice
also reduces efficiency and increases
energy consumption.
^ The freezer should be defrosted from
time to time. It must be defrosted if a
layer of ice approx. 0.5 cm thick has
accumulated.
The best time to defrost the freezer
compartment is when:
– there is very little food or no food left
in the appliance,
– the humidity level in the room is low
and the ambient temperature in the
room is also low.
Do not scrape off ice and frost and
do not not use any sharp edged or
pointed instruments to aid the
defrosting process.
This would damage the evaporator,
causing irreversible damage to the
appliance.
Before defrosting
^ The day before defrosting the freezer,
turn the On/Off and temperature
selector to a medium to cold setting
(approx. 6) to ensure frozen food
retains its cold reserve for longer
when taken out of the freezer.
^ Remove the frozen food from the
freezer compartment and wrap it in
several layers of newspaper or cloths.
^ Store it in a cool place until the
freezer is ready for use again.
^ Remove the glass cold plate from the
freezer.
