Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically
eliminated from the
evaporator of the re-
frigerator compart-
ment every time the
motor compressor
stops, during normal
use. The defrost wa-
ter drains out
through a trough into
a special container at the back of the appli-
ance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole in the middle of the
refrigerator compartment channel to pre-
vent the water overflowing and dripping
onto the food inside. Use the special clean-
er provided, which you will find already in-
serted into the drain hole.
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always
form on the freezer shelves and
around the top compartment.
Important! Defrost the freezer when the
frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5
mm.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in sev-
eral layers of newspaper and put it in a
cool place.
3. Leave the door open.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly and refit the plug.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the ap-
pliance for two or three hours using this
setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food in-
to the compartment.
Warning! Never use sharp metal tools
to scrape off frost from the evaporator
as you could damage it. Do not use a
mechanical device or any artificial means to
speed up the thawing process other than
those recommended by the manufacturer. A
temperature rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from electrici-
ty supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Defrost, if foreseen
4. Clean the appliance and all accesso-
ries.
5. Leave all doors open to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody
to check it once in a while to prevent the
food inside from spoiling in case of a power
failure.
What to do if…
Caution! Before troubleshooting,
disconnect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or competent
person must do the troubleshooting that is
not in this manual.
Important! There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
Problem Possible cause Solution
The appliance is noisy. The appliance is not suppor-
ted properly.
Check if the appliance stands
stable (all the feet should be
on the floor).
