Storage Goods Symbols/Freezing Calendar
Goods Symbols/Freezing Calendar
• The symbols on the drawers
show different types of frozen
goods.
• The numbers indicate storage
times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether
the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid
depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing.
The lower value applies to foods with high fat content.
Defrosting
The refrigerator is defrosted automatically
The electronics start the defrosting cycle in the refrigerator as needed
based on economical energy use and the maintenance of a constant
temperature. Defrosting cycles are started more or less often,
depending on the degree of moisture accumulation. Because the
greatest accumulation of moisture occurs when the door is open, the
frequency of defrosting cycles is determined by frequency and duration
of door opening.
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
compartment during operation and when the door is opened, especially
in the middle at the top. Remove 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 in any case. A
convenient time for defrosting is any time when the appliance is empty,
or only minimally loaded.
