DEFROSTING
A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs
to the drain tube via a collectioncontainer 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). 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
Defrosting is very easy and without mess thanks to a special defrost collection
basin. Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has
formed. To start 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 and dry the interior thoroughly. Insert the plug in to
the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.
CLEANING AND CARE
** We recommend that you switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and
pull out the mains plug before cleaning.
** Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent
and wax polish for cleaning.
** Use luke warm water to clean the cabinet of the appliance and wipe it dry.
** Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of
soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.
** Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing.
** Excess deposits of ice should be removed on a regular basis with the handle
of a spoon. Large accumulation of ice will impair the performance of the
appliance.
** If the appliance is not going to be used for a long period of time switch it off,
remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar.
** Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food
particles.
** Removal of door tray
• To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the
door rack upwards from the base.
** To remove a freezer drawer, pull it as far as possible, and then tilt it upwards,
and then pull it out completely.
