the motor compressor stops, during normal 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 wa-
ter drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator com-
partment channel to prevent the water overflowing
and dripping onto 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 reaches 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 several layers
of newspaper and put it in a cool place
• remove the freezer drawers

• put insulating material around the drawers, e.g.
blankets or newspapers.
Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls
with hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer.
• 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 drainage channel back
in place.
• switch on the cabinet and replace the frozen
foodstuff.
It is recommended to operate the appliance
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.
