Defrosting fridge compartment
• Defrosting occurs fully automatically in fridge compartment during operation; the
defrosted water collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.
• The evaporating tray and water drain hole (back of the refrigerator crisper shelf) should
be cleaned periodically to prevent the water from collecting on the bottom of the fridge
instead of flowing out.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
• The frost, which covers the shelves of the freezer compartment, should be removed
periodically.
• Do not use sharp metal objects for this operation. They could puncture the refrigerant
circuit and cause irreparable damage to the unit. Use the plastic scraper provided.
• When there is more than 5 mm of frost on the shelves, defrosting must be carried out.
• Before defrosting, place the frozen food in a cool place after wrapping it in sheets of
newspaper (this will help the food to maintain it's tempertaure for longer).
• To
accelerate
process, place one or more bowls
of warm water in the freezer
compartment.
• Dry the inside of the compartment
with a sponge or a clean cloth.
• Once the unit has been defrosted,
place the food into freezer and
remember to consume it in a short
period of time.
