OPERATION continued
DEFROSTING
Before cleaning or repositioning the fridge, you must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electrical power supply.
DEFROSTING THE UNIT
The fridge compartment will become progressively covered with frost.
This should be removed periodically with a plastic scraper. However,
when the ice becomes very thick on the interior walls, complete
defrosting should be carried out. Perform this operation when the
appliance is empty and disconnected from the power supply.
NEVER USE SHARP METAL TOOLS TO SCRAPE OR CHIP OFF FROST
FROM THE INTERIOR COMPARTMENT AS THIS COULD DAMAGE
THE APPLIANCE BEYOND REPAIR. DO NOT USE HEAT SOURCES
SUCH AS ELECTRIC OR GAS HEATERS TO COMPLETE THE DEFROST
PROCESS.
To perform a complete defrosting:
1. Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply.
2. Remove any stored food and store in coolers, or wrap in several
layers of newspaper and store in a cool place.
3. Leave the doors open.
4. Remove the plug from the defrost water drain located in the bottom
interior of the cabinet.
5. To accelerate the defrosting process, place a bowl of hot (not
boiling) water inside the fridge and/or freezer compartments and
close the door.
6. When defrosting is complete, wash and dry the interior thoroughly.
7. Reconnect the appliance to the electrical supply and leave running
(while empty) for at least 2 hours allowing the interior to cool
suciently.
8. Reload the fridge and freezer with the previously removed food.
ATTENTION: Partial thawing of frozen food during defrosting may
shorten its safe storage life-span.
