5.4 Defrost
A) Fridge compartment
Fridge compartment performs
full-automatic defrosting. Water
drops and a frosting up to 7-8 mm
can occur on the inner rear wall
of the fridge compartment while
your refrigerator cools down.
Such formation is normal as a
result of the cooling system. The
frost formation is defrosted by
performing automatic defrosting
with certain intervals thanks to the
automatic defrosting system of
the rear wall. User is not required
to scrape the frost or remove the
16
water drops.

symbol.
Water resulting from the defrosting
passes from the water collection
groove and flows into the
evaporator through the drain pipe
and evaporates here by itself.
Check regularly to see if the drain
pipe is clogged or not and clear
it with the stick in the hole when
necessary.
Deep freezer compartment does
not perform automatic defrosting
in order to prevent decaying of the
frozen food.
B) Freezer compartment
Defrosting is very straightforward
and without mess, thanks to a
special defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a
frost layer of around 7 (1/4") mm
has formed.
To start the defrosting procedure,
switch off the appliance at the
socket outlet and pull out the
mains plug.
All food should be wrapped in
several layers of newspaper and
stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or
larder).
Containers of warm water may be
placed carefully in the freezer to
speed up the defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
objects, such as knives or forks to
remove the frost.
Never use hair dryers, electrical
heaters or other such electrical
appliances for defrosting.
Sponge out the defrost water
collected in the bottom of the
freezer compartment. After
defrosting, dry the interior
thoroughly.
