Defrosting The Freezer Compartment - V-ZUG Prima 60i Mode D'emploi

REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator defrosts automatically.
This automatic defrosting process results in the periodic formation of small water droplets on the
inner wall behind the drawers. The defrost water is automatically drained to a drainage outlet and
then collected in a container where it evaporates.
Fan (if available)
The fan works automatically. The fan improves the temperature distribution inside the refrigerator,
which helps improve food storage times and reduce humidity. Do not block the intake opening.
The fan only switches on when the motor is in use.
Warning: The refrigerator accessories should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
This appliance is a star refrigerator with freezer compartment. Frozen food can be
stored for the period of time specified on the packaging and fresh food can be frozen,
although it should not touch already frozen food. The amount of fresh food that can be
frozen within a 24 hour period is shown on the specification plate. Partially defrosted food
should not be refrozen, but consumed within 24 hours. For more information on how to
freeze fresh food, see the short guide.
Removing drawers (depending on model)
Pull the drawers out to the stop position, lift up slightly and remove.
Note: The freezer compartment can also be used without drawers if a larger storage space is
required. However, for proper use of the freezer compartment, the bottom drawer must not be
removed. Check that the door of the freezer compartment still closes properly after the frozen food
has been added.
Making ice cubes (if available)
Fill the corresponding containers to 2/3 with water and place inside the freezer compartment.
Never use sharp or pointed objects to remove the trays.
DEFROSTING THE FREEZER
COMPARTMENT
We recommend that you defrost the freezer compartment once
twice a year, or whenever too much frost has built up (3 mm t
The build-up of frost is normal. How much frost builds up, and
quickly, depends on the ambient conditions and the frequency
with which the door is opened.
To defrost the freezer compartment, switch it off or, depending on
model, switch the entire appliance off, and remove all food.
Leave the freezer compartment door open so that the frost can melt.
Only in appliances as shown in Fig. 2, open the defrost water draina
channel and place a tray under the outlet.
When the process is finished, close the drainage channel again.
Clean the inside of the freezer compartment. Rinse and dry carefully.
Switch on the freezer compartment or the entire appliance and place
food inside again.
