Defrosting The Refrigerator; Periods Of Non-Operation; What To Do If - Atag KF8178WDL Benutzerhandbuch

Important! Do not pull, move or damage
any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products or wax
polishes to clean the interior as this will
damage the surface and leave a strong
odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush. This operation will improve the
performance of the appliance and save
electricity consumption.

Defrosting the refrigerator

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appli-
ance and all accessories

WHAT TO DO IF...

Warning! Before troubleshooting,
disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
Only a qualified electrician or compe-
tent person must do the troubleshoot-
ing that is not in this manual.
Problem
The appliance is noisy
The buzzer sounds. The
Display is red.
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 drain hole into a special con-
tainer at the back of the appliance, over the
motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole in the middle of the
refrigerator compartment channel to pre-
vent the water overflowing and dripping on-
to the food inside.
Possible cause
The appliance is not supported
properly
The door is not closed correctly.
Important! Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason it is recommended that the outer
casing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to
the mains supply.
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some-
body to check it once in a while to prevent
the food inside from spoiling in case of a
power failure.
Important! There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
Check if the appliance stands sta-
ble (all the four feet should be on
the floor)
Refer to "Door open alarm".
