Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners con-
tain chemicals that can attack/damage the
plastics used in this appliance. For this reason
it is recommended that the outer casing of this
appliance is only cleaned with warm water with
a little washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the
mains supply.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evap-
orator of the refrigerator compartment every
time the motor compressor stops, during nor-
mal use. The defrost water drains out through a
trough into a special container at the back of
the appliance, over the motor compressor,
where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost
water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator
compartment channel to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.
Use the special cleaner provided, which you
will find already inserted into the drain hole.

Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form on
the freezer shelves and around the top com-
partment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches
a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
Important! About 12 hours prior to defrosting,
set the Temperature regulator toward higher
settings , in order to build up sufficient chill
reserve for the interruption in operation.
To remove the frost, follow the instructions be-
low:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several
layers of newspaper and put it in a cool
place.
Caution! Do not touch frozen goods with
wet hands. Hands can freeze to the

3. Leave the
door open and
insert the
plastic scraper
in the appro-
priate seating
at the bottom
centre, placing
a basin under-
neath to collect the defrost water
In order to speed up the defrosting proc-
ess, place a pot of warm water in the
freezer compartment. In addition, remove
pieces of ice that break away before defrosting
is complete.

terior thoroughly and keep the scraper for
future use.
