For model no. RSB20 Refrigerator
Defrosting the Frozen Food compartment:
WARNING: Never use sharp metal tools for this
operation as they can damage your fridge
beyond repair.
Defrosting should be carried out regularly -
either, every two or three weeks or when the
ice is between 3 - 5mm thick. This will ensure
that your appliance operates efficiently.
A build up of ice could cause damage to the
freezer door flaps or create incorrect
temperatures inside the fridge compartment.
* The day before you plan to defrost, set the
thermostat dial to the 5. position to
completely freeze the contents.
* During defrosting, frozen foods should be
wrapped in several layers of paper and
kept in a cool place. The inevitable rise in
temperature will shorten their storage life.
Remember to use these foods within a
relatively short period of time.
* Before defrosting pull out the water tray
plug (1) on the water tray (2) and place a
bowl (3) underneath the tray hole to
collect the water. Ensure you use a bowl
large enough to contain the water.
* To defrost the fridge turn the thermostat
control knob to the O (OFF) position or
you may switch off the appliance at the
mains socket and pull the plug out.
* To accelerate the process, leave the door
open and one or more basins of warm
water can be placed in the freezer
compartment.
* Dry the inside of the unit and water tray,
refit the tray plug and set the thermostat
knob to the 5. position.
Defrosting
For model no. RLB20 Larders (coolers)
*
The fridge compartment will defrost
automatically. During defrost periods
water droplets form on the cooling
plate and refreeze afterwards.
Note: If your kitchen becomes exceptionally
warm, the cooling plate may not defrost
regularly.
WARNING: Ensure the gutter is kept clear
and that stored food does not come into
contact with the cooling
plate.
