AUTOMATIC DEFROSTING OF THE

REFRIGERATOR-

There is no need to defrost the refrigerator,

because ice deposited on the interior back

wall is defrosted automatically.

Ice is deposited on the interior back wall

during the compressor  operation, later on

when the compressor is not operating, the

ice defrosts and water droplets collect and

drain through the outlet in the interior back

wall into the drain pan situated above the

compressor, from where it evaporates.

MANUAL DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIG-

ERATOR-

As long as the defrost water runs to the

channel and through the outlet to the drain

pan on the compressor, automatic defrost-

ing of the appliance is assured.

In the case of ice formation on the interior

rear wall increasing (3-5mm), ice should be

manually defrosted.

Set the thermostat knob to SSTTO

OPP ((0

0)) posi-

tion and leave the refrigerator door open.

Never use electric devices for defrosting

and do not scrape the ice with sharp

objects.

After defrosting is completed, turn the

thermostat knob to the desired position and

close the refrigerator door.

The cause of increased ice formation may

be one of the following:

-  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 was 

left open for a long period.

- The food stored in the refrigerator was 

warm.

- Food or packaging is touching the interi

or rear wall.

MANUAL DEFROSTING OF THE

FREEZER-

When the frost and ice layer in the freezer

is 3 - 5mm thick you should defrost the

freezer.

• A few hours before defrosting, set the  

thermostat to position 7, so that      

packages are well frozen.

Reset the thermostat to SSTTO

OPP  ((0

0))

position and disconnect the power    

supply.

Empty the freezer, wrap frozen food in a 

blanket and put in a cool place.

• Leave the door open for a while so that 

you can easily scrape off the frost and 

ice layer. Use the plastic scraper but 

take care not to damage the inner     

surfaces of the freezer.

• Wipe up the scraped frost and ice 

before completely defrosted.

• Avoid using defrosting sprays, as they 

may cause damage to the plastic parts 

and may be hazardous to health.

DO NOT scrape off frost or dislodge frozen

food which is stuck to the freezer

compartment with a knife or other sharp

implement. You could damage the refriger-

ant tubing. Leaking refrigerant may ignite

or cause eye injuries.
