Defrosting

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator

of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor

compressor stops, during normal use.

The defrost water drains out through a trough (Fig. 6)

into a special container on the back of the appliance

where it evaporates.

Fig. 6

The freezer compartment, however, will become pro-

gressively covered with frost. This should be removed

with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever

the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.

During this operation it is not necessary to switch off

the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.

However, when the ice becomes very thick on the in-

ner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out

and it is advisable to carry out this operation when the

appliance is empty.

To carry out complete defrosting of the freezer com-

partment ( ) proceed as follows:

Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of

newspaper and put it in a cool place.

Pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the ther-

mostat knob to the «O» setting.

Leave the door open.

Introduce the plastic scraper in the appropriate seat-

ing at the bottom centre, as shown in Fig. 7, place un-

derneath a basin to collect the defrost water.

When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thor-

oughly;

keep the scraper for future use;

replace the plug in the socket and, after letting the ap-

pliance run for at least half an hour, replace the previ-

ously removed food into the compartment.

Important

A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during

defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.

Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from

the evaporator as you could damage it.
