The freezer compartment, however, will become
progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed with the special plastic scraper provided,
whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.
During this operation it is not necessary to switch off
the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the
inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out
as follows:
1. pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the
thermostat knob to the «O» setting;
2. remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of
newspaper and put it in a cool place;
3. leave the door open, place a basin on the top shelf
of the refrigerator compartment, under the drain
hole, remove the plug as shown in the figure;
4. when defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly and refit the plug.
5. Keep the scraper for future use.
6. Turn the thermostat knob back to the required
setting or replace the plug in the power socket.
7. After two or three hours, reload the previously
removed food into the compartment.
Important
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could
damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recommended by
the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.
