Defrosting - Electrolux IK261BR Notice D'utilisation

Making ice cubes
• Fill the ice cube tray with water.
• Place the ice cube tray in the appliance
and leave it to freeze.
• The ice cubes can be removed from
the tray by twisting or by holding upside
down for a short time under running water.
Cold-storage accumulators
In the event of a power failure, the
cold-storage accumulators delay the
temperature increase in the freezer
compartment.
To achieve the best results, place the
frozen accumulators on the frozen food
in the top drawer.

Defrosting

The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically.
Freezer compartment
After a long period of operation, a layer of frost or ice can build up
on the walls of the freezer compartment. This increases energy
consumption.
Important!
Defrost the appliance as soon as the ice thickness is 5 mm.
Otherwise, the drawers cannot be opened and might become
damaged.
• Pull out the plug or switch off the fuse!
• Remove the drawers and glass shelves.
• Wrap the frozen food in paper or blankets and store in a cool
place.
• Leave the door of the appliance open while defrosting.
• After a defrosting time of approx. 20 minutes, the layer of frost
or ice can be detached from the interior container by hand and
removed.
• Mop up the remaining water with a cloth and clean the appliance.
• Re-insert all parts in the appliance.
CAUTION
Risk of damage to the refrigerant circuit and
flammability hazard due to leaking refrigerant.
Do not use any mechanical devices or other
artificial aids for defrosting other than those
