Automatic Defrosting of the Refrigerator
There is no need to defrost the refrigerator, because ice depositing on
the inner back wall is defrosted automatically.
Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor
operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is
defrosting and water drops collect and drain through the outlet in the
inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor, from
where it evaporates.
Manual Defrosting of the Freezer
When the frost and ice layer in the freezer is 3-5 mm thick, you should
clean the freezer.
• Few hours before defrosting set the thermostat to position 7, so that
packages are well frozen. Reset the thermostat to STOP (0) position
and disconnect the power supply. Empty the freezer and take care
that the packages remain frozen.
• Insert the enclosed pipe into the
groove in the bottom of the
appliance and place a vessel
underneath to collect the defrost
water. Defrosting is accelerated if
the door is left open.
• Avoid using defrosting sprays, as
they may cause damage to the
plastic parts and may be hazardous to health.
Cleaning the Appliance
Disconnect the power supply before cleaning the appliance.
Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning agents as you can damage
the surface.
Be careful to remove any cleanser agent remaining after cleaning.
• Clean the exterior with water and detergent.
Varnished surfaces are cleaned with soft cloth and an alcohol based
cleaning agent (for example glass cleaners). You may also use
alcohol (ethanol or isoprophylic alcohol).
The application of abrasive and specially aggressive cleaners, such
as the stainless steel cleaners, is not appropriate for the cleaning of
plastic and coated parts.
