de-icing the ice box
The ice box compartment must always be de-iced when
the layer o frost reaches a thickness of about 4mm. This
compartment should be de-iced at least once a year
regardless of the thickness of the frost. Model WIM1000
has the added feature of a drip tray to collect the water.
When de-icing, a scraper or plastic utensil may be used.
Never use metal instruments or electrical appliances to de-
ice the ice box.
1. Switch off and disconnect the appliance.
2. Remove the plug from the drain (Model WIM1200 –
diagram below)
3. Models WIM1200, WRM1300 and WRM2400
have an additional ‘Drain Peg’ supplied with this user
manual. Use the drain peg to ensure the drain hole is
not blocked before defrosting (see diagram below). Do
not leave the drain peg in the drain hole.
4. Place a container underneath the drain hole to collect
the water.
5. To speed up the process, you can place a bowl of hot
water inside the compartment and close the door.
6. When de-icing is complete, clean the appliance before
restoring the power.

The ice box compartment is not a deep freezer and is
designed for making ice cubes. It is not recommended for
the storage of frozen food.
ice making
To make ice cubes, fill the ice tray with water and place it
in the ice box. To remove ice cubes easily, run water on the
tray before gently twisting and inverting the tray.
de-icing
The de-icing system for the fridge compartment is automatic
in models WIM1200, and vertical fridges WRM1300
and WRM2400. The rear inside of the fridge is covered
with frost when the compressor operates and de-ices
when it stops. When the ice melts, the water evaporates
automatically. WIM1000 achieves its cooling from the
ice box.
