Defrosting
The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the
compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the
pipe, into a tray located below the appliance, where it
evaporates.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowing into the
fridge, periodically clean the water discharge
hole in the centre of the V shaped drip
collector at the back of the refrigerator
compartment behind the fruit and vegetable
drawers. Use the special cleaner provided
which you will find already inserted into the
discharge hole.
The freezer compartment, however, will become
progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed with the special plastic scraper provided,
whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.
During this operation it is not necessary to switch off
the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could
damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing process other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the
inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out
as follows:
1. pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the
thermostat knob to the ÇOÈ setting;
2. remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers
of newspaper and put it in a cool place;
3. leave the door open, place a basin on the top shelf
of the refrigerator compartment, under the drain
hole, remove the plug as shown in the figure;
4. when defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly and refit the plug.
Keep the scraper for future use; turn the thermostat
knob back to the required setting or replace the plug
in the power socket. After two or three hours, reload
the previously removed food into the compartment.
Important
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.
