DEFROSTING
While in operation the -star compartment
becomes progressively covered with frost.
This frost, which acts as an insulator and thus
prevents the cold from reaching the food should be
removed whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds
1/4".
To carry out complete defrosting proceed as follows:
1. Push the conveyor completely in.
2. Place a tray on the upper shelf of the refrigerator
under the drain hole of the conveyor.
3. Remove any food from inside the -star
compartment, wrap it in several sheets of
newspaper and store in a cool dry place.
4. Turn the thermostat dial to the «OFF» (O) position.
To accelerate defrosting, place a bowl of hot water
inside the compartment (with a piece of cardboard
underneath the bowl as protection).
5. When defrosting is completed, dry thoroughly and
remove the water collected in the tray.
Turn the thermostat knob on a medium position to
restart the appliance.
After letting the appliance run for at least half an hour,
replace the previously removed food into the -
star compartment.
When defrosting it is not necessary to remove the
foods from the inner door and the refrigerator
compartment.
Important
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs
during defrosting may shorten their storage life.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you could damage it
beyond repair.
