Defrosting
The refrigerator is defrosted automatically
The integrated evaporator on the rear wall of the refrigerator com-
partment is defrosted fully automatically.
The water collects in the discharge trough at the back wall of the
refrigerator, and is fed through the discharge opening in the catch
tray at the compressor where it is evaporated.
Freezer Compartment Defrosting
Moisture is precipitated in the form of white frost in the freezer
com-partment during operation and when the door is opened. Remo-
ve this white frost from time to time with a soft plastic scraper, e.g. a
dough scraper. Do not under any circumstances use hard or pointed
objects for this purpose.
The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of the white
frost has reached about 4 mm; but at least once a year. A
convenient time for defrosting is any time when the appliance is
empty, or only minimally loaded.
Warning!
• Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or
artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the
exception of those recommended in these operating instructions.
• Do not use defrosting sprays, because they may be health endange-
ring and/or contain substances damaging to plastics.
Caution! Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands. Hands can
freeze to the goods.
Remove frozen goods, pack them in several layers of newspaper, cover
them and store them in a cool place, e.g. in a refrigerator.
Switch off the appliance and remove plug from the mains, or switch
off or turn out the circuit breaker or the fuse.
After defrosting thoroughly clean the freezer interior, as well as inte-
rior accessories (see section: "Cleaning and Care").
