5.1 Defrosting
Defrosting the Refrigerator
Compartment
• Defrosting occurs automatically in
the refrigerator compartment during
operation. The water is collected by
the evaporation tray and evaporates
automatically.
•
The evaporation tray and the water drain
hole should be cleaned periodically with
the defrost drain plug to prevent the
water from collecting at the bottom of the
refrigerator instead of flowing out.
• You can also clean the drain hole by
pouring half a glass of water down it.
Defrosting the Freezer Compartment
Frost accumulated in the freezer
compartment should be removed regularly
(using the plastic scraper provided). The
freezer compartment should be cleaned
in the same way as the refrigerator
compartment, with the defrost function, at
least twice a year.
For this:
• The day before you defrost, set the
thermostat dial to position “5” to freeze
food completely.
•
During defrosting, frozen food should
be wrapped in several layers of paper
and kept in a cool place. The inevitable
rise in temperature will shorten its
storage life. Remember to use this food
within a relatively short period of time.
• Set the thermostat knob to position “•”
and disconnect the appliance from the
mains. Leave the door open until the
unit is completely defrosted.
• To accelerate the defrosting process,
place one or more bowls of warm water
in the freezer compartment.
• Dry the inside of the unit carefully and
set the thermostat knob to the MAX
position.
Replacing LED Lighting
If your appliance has LED lighting
contact the help desk as this should
be changed by authorized personnel only.
