4. If accessible, clean the condenser and
the compressor at the back of the
appliance with a brush.
This will improve the performance of
the appliance and save electricity
consumption.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops,
during normal use. The defrost water
drains out through a trough into a special
container at the back of the appliance,
over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and dripping
onto the food inside.
Defrosting of the freezer
CAUTION! 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. A temperature
rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.
About 12 hours prior to
defrosting, set a lower
temperature, in order to build
up sufficient chill reserve for
the interruption in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out
electrical plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
WARNING! Do not touch
frozen goods with wet
hands. Hands can freeze to
the goods.
3. Leave the door open.
In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in
the freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice that break away
before defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly.
5. Switch on the appliance.
After three hours reload the previously
removed food into the freezer
compartment.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Defrost the appliance (if necessary).
4. Clean the appliance and all
accessories.
5. Leave the door/doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
