Defrosting

Refrigerator compartment
defrosts fully automatically
While the refrigerating unit is running,
beads of condensation or hoarfrost form
at the back of the refrigerator
compartment. This is quite normal. It
is not necessary to wipe off
the condensation or frost. The rear panel
defrosts automatically. The condensation
runs into the condensation channel,
Fig. *. and is conveyed
to the refrigerating unit where
it evaporates.
Note
Keep the condensation channel and
drainage hole clean, so that the
condensation can run out.
Freezer compartment
The freezer compartment does not
defrost automatically. A layer of hoarfrost
in the freezer compartment will impair
refrigeration of the frozen food and
increase power consumption. Regularly
defrost the freezer compartment.
m
Caution
Do not scrape off hoarfrost or ice with
a knife or pointed object. You could
damage the refrigerant tubes. Leaking
refrigerant may ignite or cause eye
injuries.

Proceed as follows:
Note
Approx. 4 hours before defrosting the
appliance, turn the temperature control-
ler to the highest setting so that the food
drops to a very low temperature and can
therefore be stored at room temperature
for a longer period.
1. Remove the frozen food and place
temporarily in a cool location.
2. Switch the appliance off.
3. Pull out the mains plug or remove
the fuse.
4. To accelerate the defrosting process,
place a pan of hot water on a trivet in
the freezer compartment.
5. Wipe up condensation with a cloth
or sponge.
6. Wipe dry the freezer compartment.
7. Switch the appliance on again.
8. Put the frozen food back in the freezer
compartment.
