DEFROSTING, CLEANING AND CARE
THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the
back wall of the refrigerator compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not working
and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray on top of the
compressor (Fig. 1), where it evaporates.
FREEZER COMPARTMENT should be thawed not less than twice a year or when a layer of
ice thicker than 5 mm forms in it. Do the actions below in the order they are listed:
WARNING! Turn the appliance off and pull the plug out of the electrical socket.
•
Remove food from the freezer compartment. The
frozen foodstuffs will not warm up too much while
you are thawing the freezer compartment if you
cover them with a thick cloth and keep them in a
cool place.
•
Pull out the melt water gutter, turn it 180
O
and
hook it up. After melting, place the dish with a

Leave the appliance compartment door open. After
the frost has thawed, dry the surfaces and
accessories dry.
•
Remove the melt water gutter, turn it 180º again and replace it. Close the appliance
door. Turn on the appliance.
