Defrosting Why defrosting

Water contained in food or getting into air inside the fridge be opening doors may form a frost layer inside. It will weaken the refrigeration when the frost is thick. While it is more than 10mm thick, you should defrost.

Defrosting in fresh food storage compartment

It is automatically controlled by switching the temperature regulator on or off so that there is no need of operation of defrosting. Water from defrosting will be drained into an drip tray through a drain pipe at the back of the fridge automatically.

Defrosting in frozen-food storage compartment

• Defrosting in freezer chamber is operated

manually. Before defrosting, take the food out.

• Take the ice tray and food in drawers out or

put them into the fresh food compartment temporarily.

• Set the knob of the temperature regulator to

position “0” (where the compressor will stop working) and leave the door of the refrigerator open until ice and frost dissolve thoroughly and accumulation at the bottom of the freezer chamber. Wipe off the water with soft cloth.

• In the case of speeding up the process of

defrosting, you may put a bowl of warm water (about 50°C) into the freezer chamber, and scrape away the ice and frost with a defrosting spatula. After doing so, be sure to set the knob of the temperature regulator to the original position.

• It is not advisable to heat the freezer

chamber directly with hot water or hair dryer while defrosting to avoid deformation of the inner case.

• It is also not advisable to scrape off ice and

frost or separate food from the containers which have been congealed together with the food with sharp tools or wooden bars, so

as not to damage the inner casing or the surface of the evaporator.

Warning! Switching off the appliance before defrosting, turn the temperature regulator to position “0”. Important! The fridge should be defrosted at least every one month. During the using process, if the door was opened frequently or using the appliance in the extreme humidity, we advise the user to defrost every two weeks.

Go out of use for a long time

• Remove all refrigerated packages.

• Switch off the appliance by turning the

temperature regulator to position “0”.

• Remove the mains plug or switch off or

disconnect the electricity supply.

• Clean thoroughly (see section: Cleaning and

Care).

• Leave the door open to avoid the build up of

odors. Note: If the appliance contains freezer compartment.
