Defrosting the freezer
compartment
The freezer compartment does not defrost
automatically, as the frozen food must not
thaw. A layer of hoarfrost in the freezer
compartment will impair refrigeration of
the frozen food and increase power
consumption. Remove the layer of
hoarfrost regularly.
Attention: Do not scrape off hoarfrost or
ice with a knife or pointed object. You
could damage the refrigerant tubing.
Leaking refrigerant may ignite or cause
eye injuries.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the frozen food and store
temporarily in a cool location.
2. Pull out the mains plug or switch off the
refrigerator at the main fuse box.
3. Leave the appliance to defrost.
4. Wipe the freezer compartment dry.
5. Switch on the appliance again.
6. Put the frozen food back in the freezer
compartment.
Defrosting aids
You can accelerate the defrosting
process by placing a pan of hot water
in the freezer compartment.
Attention!
Place the pan on a heat insulating base!

Warning!
Never use electrical appliances or naked
flames to defrost the freezer
compartment, e.g. heaters, steam
cleaners, candles, kerosene lamps, etc.
Caution when using defrosting sprays:
S Defrosting sprays may form explosive
gases
S Defrosting sprays may contain solvents
or propellants which attack plastic
S Defrosting sprays may be a health
hazard
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Refrigerator and
cool fresh" compartments
defrost fully automatically
While the refrigerating unit is running,
condensation or hoarfrost forms on
the rear panel of the refrigerator
compartment. This is quite normal.
It is not necessary to wipe off the
condensation or hoar frost. The rear panel
defrosts automatically. The condensation
runs into the drainage channel Fig. q and
then to the refrigerating unit where it
evaporates.
Note: Clean the condensation channel
and drain hole Fig. q to prevent the
condensation flow from becoming
obstructed.
