There is no need to defrost the refrigerator
compartment, because the ice that deposits on the inner
back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice may deposit on
the inner back wall during compressor operation. When
the compressor is not operating however, the ice will
defrost and the water drops will collect. They drain
through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain
pan situated above the compressor, where they will
evaporate.
How?
CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the
plastic parts. Also, never use a sharp or metallic
instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling
coils and will void the warranty. We recommend using a
plastic scraper.
• Reset the thermostat to the “0” position and disconnect
the power supply.
• Remove the frozen food from the appliance and place
it in a cooler for protection.
• Leave the door open long enough to soften the frost
so that you can easily scrape it off.
• Use a plastic scraper but be careful not to damage the
inner surfaces of the freezer.
• Wipe up the scraped off frost and ice before it is
completely defrosted.
Freezing Food
• Proper use of the appliance, packing food adequately,
using correct temperature settings and taking hygienic
precautions into account will substantially influence the
quality of frozen foods.
• The storage life of frozen foods varies and the
recommended storage time should not be exceeded.
• Pre-packaged, commercially frozen food should be
stored in accordance with the frozen food
manufacturer’s instructions.
• Put frozen food in the freezer as quickly as possible
after purchase. If there are instructions on the
package, carefully follow these instructions regarding
storage times.
• Carefully select the food you intend to freeze; it should
be of adequate quality and suitable for freezing.
• Use the correct packaging and wrap food tightly.
• The packaging should be airtight and shouldn’t leak,
because this could cause substantial vitamin loss and
food dehydration.

Operation
2
Interior Light
When you open the refrigerator
door the light will turn ON
automatically. When you close the door the light will
turn OFF automatically.
Defrosting your appliance
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum
energy consumption, defrost the freezer compartment
when the frost on the appliance walls is excessive or at
least 1/4 inch thick.
CAUTION
• Ensure that the voltage used in your home is the same
as the documented appliance voltage.
• The presence of water present in food or in the air
inside the refrigerator is caused by opening doors
frequently and may form a layer of frost inside. The
refrigerator will weaken if the frost gets thick. The
refrigerator can defrost automatically. The defrosted
water flows into the water collection pan through the
drain port and evaporates by the heat of the
compressor.
• If the supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must
only be replaced by a repair shop appointed by the
manufacturer because special tools are required.
• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to
modify this product in any way.
• When you change the light bulb or when the
refrigerator is not in use for long periods of time,
disconnect it from the electrical supply.
• Wait for 5 minutes before restarting the unit after a
power supply interruption.
• To reduce the potential risk of electrical shock, this
appliance is equipped with a grounding plug and it
must be connected to a grounded socket.
• Foils and bags should be soft enough to wrap around
the food tightly.
• When preparing food to be frozen, consider sanitary
precautions.
• Mark all packages with the following information: type
and amount of food, and the initial date of freezing.
• It is extremely important that food is frozen as quickly
as possible.
• If too much food is loaded in the freezer, the efficiency
and quality of freezing is reduced.
