Automatic defrosting
There is no need to defrost the refrigerator as this appliance
has automatic defrost.
In the event of a power cut
Should there be a prolonged power cut you may need to
remove food from the freezer compartment and store it in a
cold place, wrapped in layers of newspaper to preserve
suitable temperatures.
Once power is restored – replace the food back into the
freezer compartment.
Should food begin to defrost, or the power cut last longer
than expected, it is advised that you consume any food
removed from the freezer.
If the power outage is short term, most foods can be left
inside the freezer compartment – this is the best way of
preserving temperature – and surrounded by ice cubes from
the ice box. This is also an ideal solution for power outages
you may have been pre warned about.
When experiencing a power cut of any kind, do not add any
extra foods to the freezer.
Do not use mechanical
devices to accelerate
the defrosting process
– unless they are of a
type recommended by
the manufacturer.
In the event of a
power cut, food should
remain safely cold for
3 hours approx.
