• Defrosting occurs automatically in
the refrigerator compartment during
operation. The water is collected by
the evaporation tray and evaporates
automatically.
• The evaporation tray and the water
drain hole should be cleaned
periodically with the defrost drain plug
to prevent the water from collecting at
the bottom of the refrigerator instead
of owing out.
• You can also clean the drain hole by
pouring half a glass of water down it.
Freezer defrosting process
• Small amounts of frost will accumulate
inside the freezer, depending on
the length of time the door may be
left open or the amount of moisture
introduced. It is essential to ensure
that no frost or ice is allowed to form
in places where it will affect the close
tting of the door seal. This might
allow air to penetrate the cabinet,
encouraging continuous running of
the compressor. Thin frost formation
is quite soft and can be removed with
a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use
metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical
devices or other means to accelerate
the defrosting process. Remove all
dislodged frost from the cabinet oor.
It is not necessary to switch off the
appliance for the removal of thin frost.
• For the removal of heavy ice deposits,
disconnect the appliance from the
mains supply, empty the contents into
cardboard boxes and wrap in thick
blankets or layers of paper to keep
cool. Defrosting will be most effective
if carried out when the freezer is
nearly empty and should be carried
out as quickly as possible to prevent
an unnecessary increase in the
temperature of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers,
mechanical devices or other means
to accelerate the defrosting process.
An increase in temperature of frozen
food during defrosting will shorten
the storage life. Keep contents well
wrapped and cool while defrosting is
taking place.
• Dry the inside of the compartment with
a sponge or a clean cloth.
• To accelerate the defrosting process,
place one or more bowls of warm
water in the freezer compartment.
• Examine the contents when replacing
them in the freezer and if some of
the packages have thawed out, they
should be eaten within 24hours, or be
cooked and re-frozen.
• After defrosting is complete, clean the
inside of the appliance with a solution
of warm water and a little bicarbonate
of soda, then dry thoroughly. Wash all
removable parts in the same way and
reassemble. Reconnect the appliance
to the mains supply and leave for 2 to
3 hours on setting number '5' before
introducing the food back into the
freezer.
