DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT
Defrost the freezer compartment when the layer of ice reaches a thickness of 3 to 5 mm. Keep the contents of the freezer in
a cool place and wrapped in blankets or newspapers. Switch the thermostat off to ““ and unplug the appliance. Defrost the
freezer compartment.
You can speed up the defrosting process by placing a bowl
of hot water in the freezer.
1. Remove the bottom drawer and place it on the floor
aligning it to the front of the freezer.
2. Pull the drain pipe from the back of the wall inside the
freezer compartment and place it in the groove on the
front side of the floor of the aplliance.
Remove water which not flows into the drawer with a
sponge. Clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm water
and a neutral detergent to prevent any bad smells occurring.
After cleaning, rinse the interior with clean water and rub
dry. Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours.
Switch the thermostat on to the right setting. When the freezer compartment reaches its correct temperature, replace the
food items.
Warning: Never remove the ice with the aid of sharp objects, defrost sprays, a hair-drier, a heater, or similar items. This may
lead to unsafe situations and may cause irreparable damage to the appliance.
TIPS
High ambient temperatures have a negative effect on energy use. Keep the refrigerator in a position away from direct
sunlight or other sources of heat.
Keep ventilation openings free. Clogged openings lead to higher use of energy.
Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to close it
as soon as possible.
Turn the thermostat to a lower setting when the circumstances allow it.
Before storing fresh cooked food, make sure the food has cooled at least to room temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3 to 5 mm thick.
If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the energy consumption is substantially higher. To
restore efficiency, replace the gasket.
Keep the condensor on the rear wall always clean, free of dust or any impurities.
Always consider the instructions, otherwise the energyconsumption is substantially higher.
