Replacing The Light Bulb - VESTEL VEKD5016 Guide D'utilisation

• The evaporation tray and the water drain hole should be cleaned periodically with the
defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting at the bottom of the refrigerator
instead of flowing out.
• You can also clean the drain hole by pouring ½ glass of water down it.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
WARNING: Never use sharp metal tools, unless recommended by manufacturer for this
operation as they can damage the refrigeration circuit.
After a period of time, frost will build up in certain areas of the freezer compartment. The frost
accumulated in the freezer compartment should be removed periodically (use the plastic
scraper, if available).
Complete defrosting will become necessary if the frost layer exceeds 3-5 mm, to maintain
the efficiency of the freezer.
• The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to position "5" to freeze the food
completely.
• During defrosting, frozen food should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in
a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember
to use the food within a relatively short period of time.
• Set the thermostat knob to position "•" and switch off the appliance.
• Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting. Remove any water from the compartment.
• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent.
• Never use abrasive products or aggressive cleaning agents.
• Dry the inside of the unit, plug it into the mains and set the thermostat knob to position
"5". After 24 hours, reset the thermostat to the desired position.
