MAINTENANCE
Defrosting the appliance
After a period of time, frost will build up in certain areas in the freezer compartment. The frost,
accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically. If the frost layer
exceeds 3-5 mm, it is necessary to defrost the freezer compartment completely to maintain the
efficiency of the freezer.
The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to the lowest temperature setting to
freeze the foods completely.
• Before defrosting, frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in
a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember to
use these foods within a relatively short period of time.
• Switch off the appliance.
• Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting. Remove the defrost water from the
compartment.
• Avoid using defrosting sprays, as they may cause damage to the plastic parts and may be
hazardous to health.
• This appliance has a special drain system.
1. Pull out the bottom drawer A of the freezer
compartment. Put it on the floor and align it to
the front of the cabinet.
2. Pull out the drain pipe B located on the back
wall of the freezer compartment. Then, place it
in the groove on the front side of the appliance
floor.
3. If there is still water on the freezer floor, you
can remove it by using a sponge.
• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent. Never use abrasive
products or aggressive cleaning agents.
• Dry the inside of the unit, plug in the mains, and set the thermostat knob to the lowest
temperature setting. After 24 hours, set the thermostat to the normal position.
Warning
Never remove ice layer with sharp objects, defrosting sprays, a hairdryer, an electric
heater or something similar. This can be unsafe and cause irreparable damage to the
appliance.
