Refrigerator section
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the refrigerator section
whilst it is in use. These are
automatically removed and defrosted
by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an
evaporation system at the back of the
appliance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are never blocked so
that the condensate can flow away
without hinderance.
Freezer section
The freezer section does not defrost
automatically because frozen food must
not be allowed to defrost.
In normal use, and as a result of
opening the freezer door, ice and frost
will form on the evaporator plates. If
allowed to accumulate, this will impair
the efficiency of the freezer and
increase the consumption of electricity.
Do not scrape ice and frost off the
evaporator plates as this can
damage the evaporator plates and
the freezer making it unusable.
The freezer section should be defrosted
from time to time. It must be defrosted if
a layer of ice approx. 5 mm thick has
accumulated. It is best to defrost when
only very little food or no food at all is
left in the freezer.
Before defrosting
^
Switch on the super freeze function at
least 4 hours before defrosting to
ensure frozen food retains its cold
reserve for longer when taken out of
the freezer.
^
Remove the frozen food from the
freezer and place it in another freezer
or cool box or wrap it in several
layers of newspaper or cloths and
store in a cool place on top of freezer
packs until the freezer is ready for
use again.
^
Take all freezer drawers out of the
freezer.
