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

into a special container at the back of the

appliance, over the motor compressor, where it

evaporates.

The freezer compartment, however, will become

progressively 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 inner 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

compartment 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

thermostat knob to the a«O» setting.

Leave the door open.

Introduce the plastic scraper in the appropriate

seating at the bottom centre, as shown in Fig ,

place underneath a basin to collect the defrost

water.

When defrosting is completed, dry the interior

thoroughly;

keep the scraper for future use;

replace the plug in the socket and, after letting

the appliance run for at least half an hour,

replace the previously 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.

Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial

means to speed up the thawing process other

than those recommended by the manufacturer.
