Making ice

Figure U
Fill ice tray 3/4 full with water and place
on the bottom of the freezer
compartment. Ice cubes will be easier to
remove if the tray is given a gentle twist.
Defrosting
Refrigerator
The refrigerator defrosts automatically.
The thaw-water collects in the discharge
gutter (figure I/7) and is then
conducted to the refrigerating unit to
evaporate. Ensure that the discharge
gutter and the discharge outlet
(figure I/19) are clean at all times, so
that water may drain unhindered.

Freezer compartment

For safety reasons, the freezer
compartment (Figure Q/A) does not
defrost automatically, since the products
stored in this area, are not supposed to
accidentally thaw out. Intensive frost
and ice build-up adversely influence the
cold transmission to the frozen products
and cause the rate of energy
consumption to increase.
Scrape off frost build-ups
To remove frost build-ups you may use
the standard frost scrapers available at
most local dealers and large
supermarkets. Ensure that the freezer
compartment is not damaged when frost
is scraped. Never use sharp or pointed
items or metal utensils to remove frost.
Allow ice coats to thaw out
If a thick ice coat has built up inside the
freezer compartment, it should be
allowed to thaw out.

If there are still frozen products in the
freezer, swicht on the freezer switch
(Fig. E/22) about 4 hours before
defrosting so that the food is once again
deep frozen.
Observe the following procedure:
• Remove frozen products, wrap up well
in newspaper and store in a cool
place.
• Turn the temperature selector
(Figure Q/2) to setting "O" or unplug.
Do not allow thaw water to run into
the temperature selector.
• Leave door open and wipe-up thaw
water with a cloth or sponge.
• Rub freezer compartment dry, switch
appliance on once more and reinsert
frozen products.
Defrosting aids
Be extremely careful when using
defrosting sprays. These sprays may
cause the formation of explosive gases,
contain propellants or substances which
may be a major health hazzard and
even damage the plastic parts of the
appliance.
When making use of these sprays, read
the manufacturer's instructions most
carefully and adhere strictly to the given
indications.
