What To Do If - Electrolux IK206520RE Benutzerinformation

Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always
form around the top compartment.
Important! Defrost the freezer when the
frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5
mm.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in sev-
eral layers of newspaper and put it in a
cool place.
3. Open the door.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly.

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 appliance does not
operate. The lamp does
not operate.
20) If foreseen.
Possible cause
The appliance is not supported
properly
The appliance is switched off.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the ap-
pliance for two or three hours using this
setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food into
the compartment.
Warning! 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.

tricity supply

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)
