refrigerator compartment channel to pre-
vent the water overflowing and dripping on-
to the food inside. Use the special cleaner
provided, which you will find already inser-
ted into the drain hole.
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer rea-
ches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
To remove the frost, follow the instructions
below:
• pull out the plug from the wall socket or
switch off the appliance
• remove any stored food, wrap it in sever-
al layers of newspaper and put it in a cool
place
• remove the freezer drawers
• put insulating material around the draw-
ers, e.g. blankets or newspapers.
Defrosting can be accelerated by placing
bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the
freezer.

WHAT TO DO IF...

Caution! Before troubleshooting,
disconnect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or compe-
tent person must do the troubleshoot-
ing that is not in this manual.
• Loosen the drainage channel from its
resting position, push it in according to
the illustration and place it in the bottom
freezer drawer where water can collect
• carefully scrape off the ice when it starts
to thaw. Use a wood or a plastic scraper
• when all the ice has melted, clean and
wipe the cabinet dry, then put the drain-
age channel back in place.
• switch on the cabinet and replace the
frozen foodstuff.
It is recommended to operate the ap-
pliance at the highest position of the
thermostatic control for some hours so
that it can reach the sufficient storing
temperature as soon as possible.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost from the evaporator as you
could damage it. Do not use a mechanical
device or any artificial means to speed up
the thawing process other than those
recommended by the manufacturer. A
temperature rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.
Important! There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
