DEFROSTING 
 
Defrosting occurs fully automatically in the refrigerator 
compartment during normal operation.  The defrosted 
water collected by the evaporating tray evaporates 
automatically. 
 
However, you will have to manually defrost the 
freezing compartment (icebox) when the frost 
and ice layer coating its interior is 3-5mm. 
 
You do this by: 
 
1) 
Turning the 
thermostat knob 
to the STOP (0) 
position and 
disconnecting the 
power supply. 
 
2) 
Emptying the 
icebox, taking care 
that the packages 
remain frozen by 
wrapping them 
properly. 
 
3) 
Mopping up melted 
water from the 
bottom of the 
appliance with a 
cloth. 
 
 
 
Avoid using defrosting sprays, as they may cause 
damage to the plastic parts and may be hazardous to 
health.  
 
NOTE:  The evaporating tray & water 
drain hole should be cleaned 
periodically with a plastic straw to 
prevent water from collecting on 
the bottom of the refrigerator 
instead of flowing out.
