DEFROSTING
Defrosting is only required on this refrigerator compartment, because the freezer
compartment is Frost Free.
After a period of time frost will build up in the refrigerator compartment. As a temporary
measure, this frost should be scraped away using a plastic scraper. NEVER use a metal or
sharp instrument. Complete defrosting will however become necessary when frost layer
exceeds 5mm.
REPLACING THE LIGHT BULB
Should the light fail, switch off at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. Remove the
lamp guard and check that the bulb is fully screwed in. Replace the plug and switch on. If the
light still fails, obtain a replacement E14 screw-cap type 230 volt 15 Watt (Max) Refrigerator
bulb from your local electrical sore and then fit it. Carefully dispose of the burnt-out light bulb
immediately.
