Defrosting

Refrigerator compartment

Defrosting is actuated automatically.

The condensation flows

into the evaporation

area of the appliance via

the condensation channels

and the drainage hole.

Freezer compartment

The freezer compartment does not

defrost automatically, otherwise

the frozen food would start thawing. A

layer of frost in the freezer compartment

impairs refrigeration of the frozen food

and increases power consumption.

Remove the layer of hoarfrost regularly.

Caution

Do not scrape off hoarfrost or ice with

a knife or pointed object. You could

damage the refrigerant tubes. Leaking

refrigerant may ignite or cause eye

injuries.

Proceed as follows:

Note

Approx. 4 hours before defrosting

the appliance, switch on super freezing

so that the food drops to a very low

temperature and can therefore be stored

at room temperature for a longer period.

1. Switch off appliance to defrost it.

2. Pull out mains plug or switch off fuse.

3. Place the freezer drawers containing

the food in a cool location. Place

the ice pack (if enclosed) on the food.

4. Open condensation outlet. Fig. 1

5. The shelf for large bottles can be used

to collect the condensation. To do this,

take out the shelf for large bottles (see

chapter entitled Cleaning

the appliance) and place under

the open condensation outlet.

6. To accelerate the defrosting process,

place two pans of hot water on a trivet

in the appliance.

7. When the freezer compartment has

defrosted, pour the water out of

the freezer drawer. Wipe any

remaining water off the bottom of

the freezer compartment with

a sponge.

8. Close condensation outlet.

9. Re-insert shelf for large bottles into

the door.

10.When defrosting is complete, connect

and switch on the appliance again.
