Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall
As long as the defrost water runs to the channel and through the opening to the
drain pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting of the appliance is assured. In
case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (1/8”), ice should be
manually defrosted.
Set the thermostat knob to the STOP position and leave the door open. Never use
electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp
objects. After completed defrosting, turn the knob to desired position and close
the freezer door.
The cause of increased ice formation may be one of the following reasons:
-
The door does not seal well (clean the gasket if it is contaminated,
or replace it if it is damaged).
-
The door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long.
-
The food stored in the freezer was warm.
Noise
The c
ooling in the freezer is enabled by the compressor, this produces noise.
How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it’s used and how
old the appliance is.
•
During the operation of the compressor, a liquid noise is heard and when
the compressor is not operating a refrigerant flow is heard. This is a
normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the
appliance.
•
Sometimes unusual and strong noises occur which is rather unusual for the
appliance. This noise is often a consequence of inadequate placing. To
avoid the noise make sure the appliance is placed and leveled firmly on a
solid base. Make sure the appliance is not touching the wall or kitchen
units standing next to it. And always make sure you check the accessories
in the interior of the appliance; they should be placed correctly in their
positions
