About 12 hours prior to defrosting,

set a lower temperature, in order to

build up sufficient chill reserve for

the interruption in operation.

A certain amount of frost will always form on the

freezer shelves and around the top

compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches

a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out

electrical plug from the wall socket.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several

layers of newspaper and put it in a cool

place. 

Do not touch frozen goods with

wet hands. Hands can freeze to

the goods.

3. Leave the door open.

In order to speed up the defrosting process,

place a pot of warm water in the freezer

compartment. In addition, remove pieces of

ice that break away before defrosting is

complete.

4. When defrosting is completed, dry the

interior thoroughly and keep the scraper for

future use.

5. Switch on the appliance.

After three hours reload the previously removed

food into the freezer compartment.

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.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost

water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator

compartment channel to prevent the water

overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.

When the appliance is not in use for long

periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from electricity

supply.

2. Remove all food.

3. Defrost (if necessary) and clean the

appliance and all accessories.

4. Clean the appliance and all accessories.

5. Leave the door/doors open to prevent

unpleasant smells.

If you want to keep the appliance

switched on, ask somebody to

check it once in a while to prevent

the food inside from spoiling in case

of a power failure.
