10. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

10.1 Defrosting the fridge cell

The refrigerator compartment is equipped with automatic defrosting. During normal fridge operation frost

forms on the rear wall while the compressor is working, and melts when it is not working. While the

compressor is not working, the accumulated frost on the rear wall melts and the water runs off into the

opening for this purpose at the bottom of the cell. It is then channelled into the tray on the compressor,

from which it evaporates.

Attention

the formation of ice on the rear wall can vary depending on changes in climate conditions (temperature

and humidity), how often the door is opened, the operating temperatures of the machine, the amount of

fresh food contained (in particular fruit and vegetables).

10.2 Defrosting the freezer

The freezer compartment needs to be defrosted manually. You are recommended to carry out defrosting

every 6 months or whenever the thickness of the frost or ice on the shelves reaches 7 mm. Remove the

plug from the electricity supply (or turn of the mains switch). Open the door of the freezer and remove all

frozen foods from the drawers, and protect them from thawing during cleaning (frozen foods will not heat

up too much during defrosting of the freezer if they are covered with a thick cloth and stored in a cool

place). Leave the freezer door open to allow the frost to melt. Pull out the drain (Fig. 14 pos. 1) for

channelling the defrosted water, rotate it 180° and secure it as indicated in Fig. 15. Position a container

(Fig. 15 pos. 2) (not supplied) under the drain to catch the water from the defrosting. Place a dish under

the defrosting channels. When the ice melts, clean and dry the surfaces and parts of the freezer

compartment. At the end of defrosting, extract the drain (Fig. 14 pos. 1) for channelling the defrosted

water, turn it back 180° and replace it in its original position. Close the door of the freezer compartment.

Reconnect the plug (or set the mains switch to ON). Turn the fridge freezer back on using the selector on

the control panel.

Attention

During defrosting of the freezer, open the fridge door as little as possible to avoid sudden increases in

the temperature inside the fridge.
